Review written on 5/1954.
Gordon-Brull just released a new Fastback called the Corsican. We've been waiting to see this vehicle in person. And now that we have, we can make our opinions known. Is it truly better than the class leader? The 9181. Or is even the lowly B963 better than it? Read to find out more!

The first stop for the Gordon-Brull Corsican was the track. I won't lie. I was scared. This Fastback is built for performance. Gordon-Brull cut no corners when designing this vehicle for speed. The vomit stains on the carpet prove that the 155 hp @ 4082RPMs 4976 cc V4 engine roars this rocket to a top speed of 109 mph in an impressive 15.900s 0 to 60 mph. We found that with 160 lb-ft of torque this machine can tow an impressive 138 lbs. I'm guilty wanting to steal this one for my self. On the track you can tell that the Gordon-Brull Corsican is above average when it comes to handling and driveability. Most Fastback would not be able to keep up with the Corsican on twisty and windy roads. It can almost put a smile on your face.

Once we were done playing on the track, we got a good look at the Gordon-Brull Corsican and I must say, we were quite impressed. While not the most luxurious vehicle on the market. It is quite comfortable for what it is. There is just enough styling and support to last on long trips and impress friends, while not being overly expensive like hyper luxurious vehicles.

Inside the Gordon-Brull Corsican it feels like they could add an extra row of seats. There is enough room to even lay down, which is amazing! The 33 cu-ft of cargo and passenger space ensures that you always have plenty of room to do whatever it is you need to do. And that makes us happy.

Serious effort goes into every Gordon-Brull Corsican produced. The build quality of these vehicles is amazing! We could not find a single flaw in its construction while we were testing it. Everything fits properly, nothing is misaligned or misplaced. All of us here at GCM commend Gordon-Brull in their efforts when it comes to the production of this vehicle.

Reliability of the Gordon-Brull Corsican is not good. It's really dependent on how well you take care of the vehicle and luck of the draw. Almost all Corsican have some sort of issue within their lifetime. But it's never exactly enough of a pain to make you regret your purchasing decision. If avoiding the mechanic shop is your priority, it may be best to look elsewhere.

At this point in testing we would normally take the Gordon-Brull Corsican out on the roads. However our test driver barely made it out of the parking lot before running out of fuel. The Corsican's ghastly 15.3 mpg means you'll need to take a few jerry cans, scratch that, a few barrels of fuel just to make it to the grocery store.

With some focus on safety, Gordon-Brull Corsican has been able to outshine most in its class. It almost makes you believe the marketing hype that Gordon-Brull does actually believe in the safety and security of your family.

When you drive the Gordon-Brull Corsican you'll see other Fastback on the road and think to your self: Why would anyone buy anything other than a Gordon-Brull. Simple answer, they're stupid!
