Confirmed: Scirocco Headed to U.S. After All

The peoples at AutoSpies.com claim to have received a confidential dealer update explaining that the Scirocco will indeed be released in the U.S. as a limited edition!

Now, obviously that “confidential dealer update” is *ahem* no longer confidential since they posted it in its entirety on their website. The only details in the update are that the Scirocco will be limited in numbers similar to the R32, and will come with the 2.0T engine.

No other tidbits on drivetrain etc. Since Volkswagen is so fond of neutering most of their options for the American market, I think we can assume that the only tranny option will be the fabled DSG. (Not that that’s a bad thing!)

  1. Awesome news!

    Now if VW will bring the Scirocco over in 3.2L VR6 and 6-speed manual options would be nice to see.
