2. Volkswagen Corrado

In addition to the GTI, there was another Volkswagen hatchback that hit the road during the ’90s. The Corrado was known for its expensive price tag and unique look. While the car didn’t become popular during its initial run, the used car market has been quite friendly to it. Resale prices for the Corrado have continued to rise and the car provides exceptional performance. But maintenance on the Corrado is expensive as with any German car. Being notoriously unreliable was one of the main problems with the Corrado.

Because most of these cars have high mileage now, doing repairs can be costly. If you like German cars the Corrado might be worth looking into. But for the most part, you should avoid this sports car like the plague.
