Motor Authority reported last month that the VW Scirocco successor won't arrive in the US. VW of America executive Adrian Hallmark stated "We don't want it," suggesting that it would cannibalize the GTI's sales. AutoWeek spoke with VW spokesman Hans-Gerd Bode and was told the Scirocco's future in the US was still a top consideration. However, he stated that the final decision will lie upon VW CEO Martin Winterkorn.If the Scirocco is given the green-light for the US, expect it to arrive at the end of 2008. Until then, we'll wait on the final decision to be made. The Scirocco will share many components with the GTI. The production Scirocco will have minor design differences from the IROC Concept, which debuted at this year's Geneva Motor Show.
