Obviously, they were there to crush the rebel alliance. I wonder what car would be Leia?

Also, I second bravenrace's motion to import the g-dang frickin' Scirocco for pete's sake. Remind me again why they would supposedly eat into Golf sales in the US, but not anywhere else in the world?

In reply to Matt B:

It won't eat into it in my case, because I won't be buying a Golf.

VWOA has always hated the rocco.. from the early 70s on till now. They have this irrational fear it will hurt the sales of the golf...

I my question is "So?" A sold car is a sold car, does not matter if it is a golf, getta, passat, or a scirroco

Don't sciroccos cost more than golfs, so losing a golf sale to one would be a good thing or perhaps a customer moving up market?

American's don't buy that many hatchbacks so they think there is only room for one in their line up. BMW won't bring us the 1 Series hatch because they're afraid of repeating the 318ti flop.

VWoA has a long history of stupid. I know a lot of my VW buddies are buying Honda Fits & Mazda 2s because they won't bring the Polo over here (and if I still had a job, I'd join them). We love our Mk.2 Golf/Jettas, but twenty years is a long stinking time to keep a daily driver healthy.

never considered the 318ti a flop.. it's biggest problem was that it was not as refined as the sedans and coupe's with it's old style rear suspension and cheaper interior.

Personally, I think the 1 series 2 door hatch is the prettiest of the series.

Flash mob a pack of P71s? You could use "I Fought The Law" for the music.

Which ones do the cops get ticked off about? The groups of yuppies and hipsters showing up and dancing, or the groups of urban youfs showing up and destroying E36 M3 that the media have taken to calling flash mobs so people can't call them racist?
