According to VW officials interviewed by trade weekly Automotive News, the U.S.-market Scirocco would likely be sold as a specially equipped limited-edition model positioned above the GTI in power and price. It's basically the same approach the company took with the V6 all-wheel-drive Golf R32 of 2005, which sold out a 5,000-unit allotment, and the similar 2007 R32 that drew 1,756 U.S. sales. Because the new Scirocco was designed for American safety and emissions regulations, it could come here fairly quickly once VW gives the go-ahead. That could mean a 2010 model debuting as early as mid-2009.

So, I say it should be the .:R20
Up-market of the Golf and GTI, kinda like the R32, but lighter, more unique, and more modify-able with the turbo engine.
I don't think I would pay more for that than a well-eqipped GTi, but I have also never seen one in person. I may go koo koo for coco puffs over it, and not even realise it yet.
