1981 Volkswagen Scirocco Reviews, Pricing & Specs

PERFORMANCE- it's front wheel drive, so the zero to sixty time isn't amazing. However, what it may lack in acceleration it makes up for in the corners. The car is VERY light and it is flat through the corners. Steering feels heavy and you get good response from the road. There is no power steering but I don't miss it at all. BUILD QUALITY- It's German... it will survive the nuclear holocaust APPEARANCE- SEX COST- I paid $700 for it. It weighs nothing, it has a 1.7 titre engine, the gas is very cheap and if you drive normally, it just sips the fuel. FUN- well... It's light, flat through the corners and it's a scirocco... very fun!

All around excellent performance and styling, Italian design with German engineering. All mechnical harmony with little electronics in the way these engines are near bullet proof! These cars are like go carts on winding roads with mearly a good set of shocks and springs

This car is been good since I got it. just keep the maintenance on point (oil change, air filter, fuel filter, wheel rotation, brakes replaced) and replaced the wheel, from original 13" to 14" (wow!! hahaha) bottle cap off my old E30.
