I don't like it. But I didn't like the Mk5 GTI when that came out, either.

Sounds a bit too much like "Iraq"...

It would be a nice design, but i dont like the fact that the ridge over the rear wheels is alot lower than that formed by the hood, giving it the appearence of having a larger nose and a squating tail.

Sounds a bit too luch like "Iroc-Z".

It's hideous by the way.

Did I mention it looks kind of like Mitsu's Evo X concept up front? I find it sporty, but flabby.

That's the first car that came to my mind when I saw this pic...

Mine, too. And I think that's why I'm not feeling it.

I want VW to bring back the Scirocco and Corrado:(. This car looks nasty. Wo I just noticed that it says Scirocco on the plate:confused: . What have they done?

I like it:D But that might be because it's the color of my face (see smiley) :p

I kinda like it, but I think it needs to be more resolved. It's likeness to the upcoming Evo is bit silly too. As for the name, yeah... they pillaged part of the word Scirocco to make a whole new word, sort of.

Exactly what I thought niko, but I love the mitsu, and I think this VW looks nice.

isn't Iroc the name of the 80's Camaro?

I think the evo would look tons better if they made the front bumper one continuous color instead of the black in the middle. Makes it look too gaping.

That was I.R.O.C. wich stands for international race of champions that the car "represented".
i think this is actually supposed to be said I ROCK (o something) where as the otehr wasnt.

wasnt the corrado the sucessor to the the scirocco?

so shouldnt this be the successor to the corrado?

they should have hired the ialians for the styling like they did for the first scirocco...

This car looks nice, but not in green. :p

I think it looks like a Volvo C30.

Strange. I think it's ok as far as overall shape goes, but the grill is hideous and so is the interior.

The lights kind of remind me of the Evolution X concept...

Love the side, as also the headlights. The hood is a bit of a slab. But the radiator grill is horrid(Almost like a mouth) It looks like something Pixar would have come up with (for Cars 2 perhaps)- I mean you can almost see teeth or a tongue waiting to breakthrough.
