>> If you're like me you've got fond old memories of the VW Scirocco. Europe, at least, is going to get it again. Here it is; the world premiere of the Scirocco once again. This will be what, Series 3 if you take out a long gap where there wasn't one at all. They're going to have a variety of engines, at least, for Europe; all of them with turbos, one diesel and 3 gas tantalizing power-drains tech that all have an option for a 7-speed DSG, the Dual Clutch Sequential Gearbox. We love that kind of stuff. Also a high-end nav system with a 30-gig hard drive and touch screen; that's nice for a car, that they say, is gonna be at the affordable range, it is real Scirocco stuff. Also check out this panoramic roof here which they say blocks 99% of ultraviolets, so your head won't get roasted hopefully. They've also got Electronically Controlled Suspension on this vehicle, which one of the modes sport, they say transport you to the Nuremberg Ring North Loop, kinda cool. I'd be happy to get any loop out of this car but 'coz it probably won't be coming to the US. This is about us folks, that's all we get. [ Music ]
