I like it! Love the look of the mkVI much more than the mkV. Looks promising. I do second the "want the Scirocco" comments though.

Why can't they just make the Scirocco with this power train? That would be such a good combination.

It'll be a hot seller if they did this.

that would sell like crazy. a german car that looks great, is quick with a stock turbo and AWD? it would cannibalize the evo/sti sales and die-hard VW fans would go nuts for it.

if it happened in a few years when i can afford it, i'd think about it for a DD.

I have a feeling this car is gonna suck too. i would love to see some serious STI/Evo competition from other manufacturers (esp honda).

no, no, no. I am talking about the awd part of it. I could care less what engine a heavy fwd car has.
