in the latest Autozeitung was a short compare to the Opel Astra GTC,
unfortunatily without a track test... the Scirocco was all black.. looks
fantastic in black. I am realy pleased by the weight, there are not many new
cars in the hatchback class with such a low weight

what this thing need is more power. im thinkin 3 better versions.
1 with a 285 bhp v6 another with a 360 bhp v8 and the ultimate 440 w12...lol
that would kick f**kin ass baby..lol
The best they could do is put Golf R32 3.2 liter V6 in it. But it's big, heavy
and very powerful engine for FWD. For a car this light (only 1271 kilograms) 2.0
Golf GTi engine should be enough for everyone's expectations. And 1.4 Turbo is
adequate as well.

maybe they could make they engine bay bigger or somthing. im not a power freak
or anything but in a car that looks this good i think it deserves a lil..okay a
lot more power
the VR6 is to heavy would make it much to nose heavy, which would completely
ruin the concept of a modern light vehicle.
Currently confimred are only the 1.4TSI with different power ouput some diesel
versions and a 200hp 2.0l TFSI. VW currently thinks about a topversion with a
250hp 2.0l TFSI engine most likely called Scirocco R250.
BTW the Scirocco starts its race carrer befor going on sale. VW race the next
24h at the Ring with 3 factory Scirocco raced by some well known race drivers
like WRC world champion Carlos Sainz, 3time 24h of the Ring winner Hans-Joachim
Stuck, Ginelle de Villers, Dieter Depping etc.
VW hopes to repeated the GTIÂīs last years sensationell 8th place overall(and
overwhelming class victory) with their Golf GTI..the 24h Scirocco shares the
whole technic of the last season GTI.
At the same race the Scirocco Mk I started Volkswagen touring car racing
history.
That would be stupid more than awesome. This is not a supercar - it's FWD coupe.
Golf W12 was just a concept car to prove "yes we can put a W12 in a golf".
stupid..thats your opinion putting a w12 in this WOULD be awesome if i had the
money to afford a w12 scirocco, damn straight id buy one and the only thing
stupid about that is that you think its stupid. and i think it is time for the
world to see volkswagen have a super car...even if it were to be front wheel
drive. i think there should be atleast 1 front wheel drive supercar in the
world..so stupid?.....riiiiiiighttt..
i would love to see a volkswagen version of a supercar..lol vdub is the only
manufaktur that doesnt have a supa car yet. they should have made the w12 nardo
that was sweet..lol

I expect a turbo diesel 2.0l 200hp scirocco from vw. that would be great.
Rice..... depends if you count the Bugati Veyron..... VW own Bugati so I think
you could say they have nothing to prove when it comes to building a supercar!
LOL
They alsow owns Audi, there they have the Rosemeyer concept car, build befor the
Veyron using the same engine minus the turbos. R8 is claimed to be a supercar
(in my eyes it is a sportcar no supercar)
There are many manufactors without a supercar.
i know all that stuff but im saying a volkswagen wit a volkswagen badge. and in
my opinion the audi r8 IS a supercar. in this day and age what makes a supercar
a supercar?

Seems like you won't see the VR6 engine anymore in a Golf or Scirocco. The 2.0T
engine producing 272 ps in TTS will be the replacement. maestro is also most
likely very correct, the soon to be released 204 ps twin turbo diesel will most
certainly also be available for the Scirocco.

Car is butt ugly and pointless.
Looks nothing like the concept and is a total disappointment.

@Georg
This car is not lightweight!!!
On the VW-Homepage they statet that 1271kg is without the driver and 90%
fuel...so you have to add 75kg and then it will be around 1350kg !!! And the
2.0t version will be 1370kg without dsg...i think it is a light golf but not a
lightweight hatchback.
Please correct the weight Fastestlaps.

Its finnally here, and it looks great just like the old one but it doesnt take
much styling cues form the old one.
