Well, after reading the article I saw they also
thought to include the following:

=======================
Power comes from two four-cylinders, the new 1.4-liter
Twincharger unit, and the turbo?charged 2.0-liter FSI
mill. At the top of the line is a 3.2-liter V6, paired
with all-wheel drive.

Gearboxes include a six-speed manual and optional
six-speed DSG unit.
=======================

So, all is not lost as in the Six isn't the only
option. 

I'll admit thought that as I saw it I 1st thought
Corrado, Not Scirocco. (It's a sexy body, though,
isn't it?)

 Another thing to keep in mind is despite our frugal
ways the Scirocco wasn't a budget mobile when it came
out, definatley not by the time it morphed into the
16v and the Corrado. 

It seems very hard to convince the car makers to
concentrate on quality and mechanical completness and
less on doodads and creature comforts. Strip it down,
make it 'clean'.
