"I&amp;#039;m a self-confessed VW Scirocco dork. I&amp;#039;ve owned one for sixteen years, kiss it good-night every evening, and even shipped it to Europe last year for a summer vacation. This past weekend marked the 15th annual Scirocco get-together outside of Cincinnati, OH, and I was bummed that I couldn&amp;#039;t bring my own car from California. So I called Volkswagen of America and begged to borrow the one European-market Scirocco R that&amp;#039;s in the country. Volkswagen said yes. The Scirocco R is basically a front-wheel-drive version of the Golf R. 270 hp, and in this case, with a DSG dual-clutch automatic. Needless to say, it drew a lot of attention from the 50 or so original Scirocco owners who showed up for the two-day event. And people on the road.  Enough, anyway, for them to drive their cars out into a field and write #PLZ as an Internet-y way of asking Volkswagen to please bring the next-generation Scirocco here. More importantly, I chose a couple of old VWs to photograph together with the new car. A particularly aggressive-looking Mk1, a Mk2 16V, a Corrado (a Scirocco in every way but its name) with a TDI diesel jammed under the hood, and the new car. Consider this nothing more than Scirocco porn. Oh, and Volkswagen, #PLZ bring the next Scirocco here? That&amp;#039;d be great, thanks. See all the photos from the meet-up here.
