Sorta like how a lot of VW guys felt when we were told NO SCIROCCO FOR YOU! I expected someone would scan it over and delete it. But then I received a call from them yesterday thanking me for my feedback, and that the powers that be appreciate the input and hopefully we'll be seeing them on the road in the USA soon.

I still don't expect to see them over here ever, but it was pretty classy of them to give me a personal call to let them know my input was valued.
That is pretty unexpected for sure, the Pro Ceed is pretty nice also i think they would sell. The performance numbers seemed very underrated that i saw unless they just have very strange gearing.
