i saw a scirrocco when i was in england, had to change my pants.

doesnt it come w/ all drive as an option, or is that only for the mkVI gti's?

 

vw had the idea 1st and dont ever compare it to a volvo!!!

 

and dump the dsg for a real vw driving sports car with a stick

 

I guess since they haven't done a damn thing with it in 20 years somebody had to pick up the ball

Are you saying they don't look alike? Cuz they look pretty damn similar to me.

And I'd wager that the performance is pretty similar too. The Volvo is running a 230hp 5 cylinder turbo. I've driven the latest version of the GTI. Mehhh... Nothing to jump up and down about.

 

Rumor Mill, they will come to the states in 2010, but doubt we will get all the nice models.

Saw the R in person when I was in Germany for the 24hr of the Nur.

The race variant is awesomely hot!!!

WOW! So I guess I'll stop modding the GTI and get ready for the Scirrocco

 

I'll believe it when I see it... its likely that IF we get it, it will be very expensive in order to not compete with the GTI. At that point, it'll cannibalize sales from the TT or simply die because people would rather buy Audi. I don't think I could justify spending more money for essentially the same car, though. That's why I passed on an A3 or TT.

 

DepDog: I have always like the C30 but the rear will not accomidate my yellow lab getting in and out of. You do have to admit that the VW looks a little better and if it does come AWD it is one to put on the list to check out.

IMHO if they came out AWD with that race look it would kill subi and Evo sales.

 

I saw it up close and personal at Sowo 2009. Met the guys from Forge Motorsports. Great group of people.. True Dubbers.. I couldnt find all my pictures idk what happen..but enjoy...BTW the car looks sooo sick!! If the Scirocco comes to the STATES Bye bye GTI!..

 

Great pics! The car has awesome potential.

the car really does... Looks great.. Im telling you, If this car comes to the US, bye bye GTI, and bye bye, any future projects... Im dropping money on that! lol

 

i wouldn't get it. its simply a less practical version of the GTI. great car and i don't blame people for paying more for essentially the same car or buying it over and over again, but i want something else. been there, done that. if we're talking future VW's, i'd prefer the bluesport roadster... MR, lighter, better traction... whether TSI or TDI, it's a winner.

 

I'd take this over a GTI all day long. Perhaps I'd think otherwise if I needed four doors.

 

Stopped by my VW dealer yesterday and was told that the Scirocco will not come to U.S. anymore... Is that true or they don't know what they 're talking about?
