You probably saw a lot of scanned pictures from the internet this morning concerning VW's ScIROCco concept, but these look a bit more convincing don't you think?
The ScIROCco concept, which will be officially unveiled at the Paris Motor Show in September practically previews the product edition that is going to go on sale in 2008. That's about 16 years after the last Scirocco rolled out of VW's production line in 1992 to be substituted by the not so successful, Corrado -remember the one with the "very reliable" G60 engines...
The decision to go ahead with the Scirocco was approved just a few months ago. That approval led to this sleek 3door prototype that is very reminiscent of last year's Audi Shooting Brake concept.

Expect the line up to include all the latest TFSI engines from VW's stable like the 1.4 TSI (140 & 170 Hp), the 2.0 TFSI (200 & 220-260 Hp) as well as the 3.2 FSI and of course, the hefty VW diesel line up.
According to VW officials, the 3door Scirocco will be built at the company's Setubal plant near Lisbon in Portugal
