Um ... this might actually be kinda cool.
As we say in the biz, you can't put the toothpaste back in the tube, so you might as well squeeze out what's left. After two official images of the yet-to-debut 2009 Volkswagen Scirocco hit the web the other day, a couple of sites have decided just to publish the whole lot of pre-release images. There are seven in total now (VW will likely release dozens more after the car debuts in Geneva next week), including a pair of interior pics that show, surprise, surprise, a cockpit that appears remarkably similar to the one in the Golf and Jetta. Despite that, the deeply bolstered tan leather seats are stitched with a nifty retro pattern that makes us want to crank the cassette player to 11. There's more info about the 2009 Volkswagen Scirocco that we'd like to tell you, but it's embargoed until Monday. It's highly unlikely, however, that this tube of toothpaste won't be squeezed dry by then.

From the side it looks like a smooshed GTI, but that's not to say that I don't like it. Interior looks pretty good, but I'll reserve judgment till I see the specs :)

Thought those fog lights looked familiar.

Nice looking car! I wouldn't own it but it looks like it'd be fun to drive for a while. Ah, I need to take a trip to Europe and start giving Sixt buckets of my money.
