Scirocco
Encouraged by the response that Shiv Sainik got in this thread I decided to get the opinion of all the good folks here.
I am planning to buy a VW Scirocco, and the best part is that wifey is encouraging me to go for it.... Just want your views about this particular machine. Thankoo in advance.

Re: Scirocco
i don't think it's sold here in N.A - looks nice and compact though, on second thoughts, this doesn't look like a people mover/ have room for luggage with more than 2 people in it - shouldn't u be getting something more practical ???

Re: Scirocco
Wonder why we don't get this here in america
![]() But looking at specs this looks very good car. As proud VW owner I can say their engine quality rocks ! Does it have DSG gearbox? DSG is amazing fun. Aur jab tak wife ha bol rahi hai tab tak le dalo ![]()

Re: Scirocco
218Kph = ~135mph top speed - thats nothing to sneeze at. seems to be a decently zippy car. inlines are fun to drive and more efficient as opposed to the power hungry V's. also 160 horses (bhp) is not bad at all for a car this size although i would recommend the 2.0 Litre 200hp turbocharged version

![]() 4 cylinder is not under-powered for small car. Depends on overall weight. My car (GTI) too is 4 cylinder but 2.0 ltr/200 bhp car. Top speed doesn't matter since most of the cars controls it electronically (and anyway its almost impossible to drive anything beyond 100 mph on normal roads).

Re: Scirocco
V4 with 1.4 L engine is not bad. All the zip zoop driving will get over pretty soon and then all u want is a car that will give you good mileage. In US there is very less possibility that you will ever go above 100 mph, so speed there is all good.
I drive v4, 2.0L engine car and have traveled from Auburn to detroid and back and then Auburn to SLC.....no problem at all .

v4 2.0 is okay for guys who finally think about the good mileage, not me. I need my ride powerful and ability to beat any vehicle on the US roads where going beyond 100miles has very less possibility. ![]()

My car does 0-60 mph in 6.9 seconds (official time though I can do better at around 6.6 with minimum weight in car) and max speed is 130 mph and beats any of your big cars in winding roads with terrific handling. Bol aur kya chahiye ?

But again it depends on requirements. If you want powerful car for minimum 4 people + saman for long rides then strong SUV's are recommended.

v6 will give u quick acceleration, but that is about it for advantages when considering small cars. Apart from that v4 can do anything a v6 can with better rerwards
