Hi Group!
Here is my 3rd Scirocco, this time the dream one (R) at least for me, having previously owned a reflex silver 1.4 TSI 160 and later on a candy white 2.0 TSI.

Looks awesome, congrats!
What mods do you have on the suspension?

Gorgeous! I think that it's one of the best colors for the face lifted R, especially lowered and with black rims.

Agree on this. One of the best colours for the facelift R.roc82 wrote:Gorgeous! I think that it's one of the best colors for the face lifted R, especially lowered and with black rims.

Re: My new black R - living my dream :)
Thank you both and I agree that black def is the best colour for the facelifted R. Forgot to mention that my R is year 2011, model 2012 with retrofitted original facelift parts. The interior is still the first R (I prefer the first interior and am not a fan of the facelifted one) with a few tiny but nice touched like: alcantara wrapped door handles and trim pieces, chrome air vent trims...

Nice How do you find the jump from the Normal 2.0 TSI to the R?

Totally different carSciroccoEire wrote:Nice
Feels way more composed and the motor has a totally diferent character and sound (more of a grunt and it almost sounds like it has more than 4 cylinders
). The 2.0 TSI had a nice linear acceleration curve, whilst the R has a bit more of a turbo lag, but when it kicks in, it really spins hard under your feet and gets away really quickly.The best thing I guess is the steering feel, which is also more direct and provides more feedback than normal Sciroccos'.
