No, I completely disagree.. When the Corrado was planned Scirocco 
sales had never been higher. Okay, when the it finally reached 
production the Scirocco had stagnated, but it was by this time about 
9 years old. The C is in a completely different price/performance 
bracket to the Scirocco. Anybody else who has owned both can bear me 
out on this.... Also, why did VW not delete the Scirocco II when the 
Corrado came out? Because it was a great model, and was still doing 
pretty well all over, and didn't impede sales of the Corrado...
