Scirocco GTi: Introduced 1976 in Europe. 110 hp,
vented discs, front & rear swaybars, lowered 30mm.

Scirocco GTi: I waited patiently for VW to bring this
wonderful car to the US, but it never happened.

The Scirocco S was a big disappointment to me - they
did not even put swaybars on the car! (nicer seats
though, and I love that Zender frontspoiler!)

Many "tuners" have sold the badges over the years. I
have several of these badges.
