1977 Volkswagen Scirocco Champagne Edition. Jade Green. Original. Fastback. on 2040-cars
Stratford, Connecticut, United States
MOTIVATED TO SELL. LETS MAKE A DEAL! The car has minor rust on the corners of passenger door and passenger front fender and corners of rear apron. Its looks to have been repainted at one time in its life and the paint is very shiny and makes the car show very very well. Otherwise the body is in exceptional shape for what it is and includes all upgraded chrome trim. The interior is near mint. Dash has minimal cracking, seats were covered with seat covers until I got the car. The red plaid seats look about as new as they can for the age. The car is a Champagne Edition so it comes complete with Air Conditioning, though I have not checked it out. There are upgraded shocks and springs on this car, Koni (from what I can see). Runs at original ride height, not lowered or altered. I have a huge stack of receipts for the 35+ years of this cars life. The original owner owned a VW car repair shop and this car always got the royal treatment by the looks of the papers. I even have the original title and bank note from the purchase in 77. Odometer is broken but shows around 125K. Located near 06902. Motivated seller. The pics are intended to show the condition of the vehicle. The engine runs well and sounds right. There is no oil or antifreeze leaking from this car. The interior smells dry and clean. Overall the interior can use a minor cosmetic cleaning. The exterior is nice the way it is or would make an excellent restoration. Fuel filler new has been replaced with good used piece. Windshield is crack free. Please contact me with questions or for link to more pictures. Will ship at buyers expense. |

Chief designer Walter de Silva out at Volkswagen
Fri, Nov 6 2015After decades of penning beautiful machines, Volkswagen Group design boss Walter de Silva will retire at the end of November but will still hold an advisory role. He has led the styling for the automotive giant's brands since 2007. The company's statement didn't announce a successor for him. De Silva began his design career at Fiat in 1972 and led styling at Alfa Romeo from 1986 to 1998. He first joined VW Group with Seat but made a big splash at Audi in 2002. His work there included the sixth-generation A6, A5, and the fantastic R8. Later, he created a great take on the classic Leica M9 camera, too. VW praised de Silva's creation of a design culture that spanned its division but still allowed for creativity within each one. "Walter de Silva epitomizes creativity and the Italian sense of beauty and style on the one hand and thoroughness, a systematic approach and discipline on the other," CEO Matthias Muller said in the announcement. De Silva's retirement could bring a major change in the way VW Group organizes its studios, according to Automotive News. The automaker reportedly wants to cut its annual styling budget and might not seek a replacement for him.

Next Volkswagen Golf R to get 286 horsepower?
Tue, 12 Feb 2013The seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf hasn't launched in the United States just yet, but we're already setting our sights on the range-topping R model. According to Autocar, the next Golf R will be more powerful than the current version, producing 268 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, making it the most powerful production Golf ever.
Powering the new Golf R will be a further evolution of Volkswagen's well-liked 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four, and when mated to a six-speed dual-clutch transmission, the hotter hatch will reportedly be able to sprint to 62 miles per hour in five seconds flat. That's over half a second quicker than the current US-spec model.
Other updates for the new Golf R include the addition of VW's Haldex 5 all-wheel-drive system found in the latest iteration of 4Motion. Furthermore, thanks to the use of lightweight materials, the new R is expected to weigh in around 2,650 pounds - that's a massive 675 pounds less than the current US-spec car. The exhaust has reportedly been reworked to provide more aural delight, as well.
