G60 making noise PLEASE ADVISE HELP!!!!!!

OK I went to test drive the car and it runs cool, well I am not used to the motor because it lags just like the turbo (is that normal?) Everything was ok untill I flored it about 5 times and the 6th the car made like a crunching noise!!
I do not know what that is but I did not like it. Anyone have any idea? I was flying with the car, it pulls in every gear but that made me a little worried.
Another thing that I did not like is that every time (when it was cold) I tried to force it in 2nd gear it would make a grinding noise. Like I did not push the cluch enoughf. Is that the gear oil? I do not know but when you do it softly it does not do it. Any thoughts?
The car looks clean, it has only a cluple of dents. It is lowered and it has 16's. It looks cool. I am only worried about the grinding noise and the tranny. The cluch is cool and electrical is OK. I think it needs new shocks because when i go over a bump it hits like a rock. I was thinking bilsteins. New tires are a must and so on. Nothing major.
PLEASE HELP ME I DO NOT KNOW MUCH ABOUT CORRADOS AT ALL EXEPT THAT THE CHIKS DIG THEM.
PLEASE HELP ME, SHOULD I GET THIS CAR OR NOT? THE CAR HAS 94K IT'S A 91 5-SPEED. I CAN TELL IT WILL KILL MY JETTA WITHOUT NO PROB.

The crunch in 2nd gear is the 2nd gear crunch. Some Volkswagens have really lousy syncros
*shrug* thats the way it is

I am not worried about the sincro, what gets on my mind is that the car made a crunching noise one of the times I flored it. What could that be? I hope it's not the engine.

2nd gear syncro == time for tranny rebuild. Don't kid yourself
it doesn't go away.

2nd gear syncro problem...tranny rebuild at bsiracing is $675.00.
Crunching sound when you floor the gas 5 or 6 times...no idea, but doesn't sound good at all. Have a mechanic check it out. I'm dying to find out what it is.
How much is he asking? Just trying to get an idea of what mine will go for.

Good Luck!

He went from 4500 to 3500. Now that is a cool price, I do not know yet if I am going to get it. There are other things about the car that I do not like. We will see.

just remember.... if a corrado seems mint, it's not... you'll always find something else later... if you are finding things already... offer him 2750 and call it a day if he says no.
