Concept IROC grill or production version - Which is better?

Post by tartangti »

Noticed this topic on another thread and thought I'd pose the question whether people prefer the grill on the IROC concept or the final production Scirocco?

Quick reminder :-

Personally I think the IROC concept grill is way over the top and much prefer the production model. Reminds me of the W12 Concept Golf GTI which looked really cool IMO 8)

I was quite disappointed with the production Roc, was hoping for something more like the Iroc (especially the interior).

Still whoops the ass of anything else in its price range though.

I prefer the grill on the production model.
It has more finesse and more going on for me.
The IROC looks more like a battering ram with that wide allu frame round the grill.
There should be a place for both on the road though as many obviously like it.

The concept looks more Audi, and I wouldn't have wanted a re-badged A3. I wanted a VW and thats what the production car gives me.

to distinguish the cars from stromtroopers. the last thing all those candy-white roccers want is for rebel forces to start shooting at them.

..though having said that, the production front is definitely a grower. I was really dissapointed with the front end of the production model when it came out but now I'm not so sure.

Get them colour coded, problem solved :yes: I like them, breaks the body up a bit
