Default 2008 VW Corrado / Scirocco



Looks amazing imo, lets just hope it stays looking like that when/if it comes out.

Well it looks like ass anyways, so i'm happy to see it's not being built. It also doesn't seem like something that should be in the VW lineup, it's too agressive as well.

That's the new Scirocco, wich will be built in Portugal, in the same factory as the EOS. I thought we already had a topic about it.:roll: Can't wait to see how the final version will look like, cause I think it could be an excellent sports car 8)

with what 250hp, the awd will make it heavier. need a min of 300hp!!
sorry but that config (240hp+awd) worked in the R32 and VERY well

i wouldnt say it worked very well, it works ok.

the R32 is nothing to brag about, and i dont know why people act like its the greatest thing. personally, i think its crap and thats that, nothing more to it!!!!
well thats your opinion, for me is one great car, for the money, i doubt i could compare with ferraris or any other car really, guess thats what you are trying to say here. as a hot hatcback is HOT but thats my opinion. it hauls ass, and if tuned please... 8)

they have 150HP TDi's with 4motion in Europe that haul ass, so the R32 is worthless!! not to mention with the TDi, you get about 62MPG!! cant beat that!!
if a 150hp 4M hauls, a 240hp is even faster. yes yes i know you think the r is a waste of time, after falling in love withe the one design i think the old r is a a waste too, but for me a vw head, the r32 is a good car, and the new one is even better
