Title: GTI 30 or IROC??
Post by: paulm007 on 12 November 2006, 01:30
So what would you rather drive, the GTI 30 or the new Scirocco, the IROC??

I am sure Doc has one on order already!!

looks alfa romeo ish.

not a fan of the look myself, especially cos its a bright green bling beast. if the scirroco is more a more toned down version of this it could be a nice car.

edition 30: 2k more for a car thats basically the same.

I think the new Scirocco look nice and pretty and if it comes in another colour e.g. pink, I'll get one for my wife  :tongue:

i think that scirocco looks gash, it bears no resemblance to real scirocco's, or even to a corrado

its supposed to be a 2 door coupe right but really it looks like a 3 door hatch cos its square. a bit similar to the old Z3 M coupe.

now if VW are considering bringing out their concept cars, they really need to consider the Nardo:

this is a car i would choose over ferraris,astons and porsches. the problem with VW is they dont have a proper hardcore sports cars in their range. the sportiest VW you can buy at the moment is probably the Eos  :rolleyes:

about a million times better than the IROC. yes its the same W12 i presume from the bentley continental and the phaeton, except its probably been tuned up as it can crack 60 in 3.5seconds!
