VW Scirocco 2.0 TSI "Need for Speed Undercover" to Premiere at Essen
In yet another case of fantasy meets reality, Volkswagen's in-house customization and accessorization division, Individual, has joined forces with the makers of the Need for Speed (NFS) to create a real life version of the Scirocco that stars along with an array of other vehicles including the new Nissan 370Z in the latest iteration of Electronic Arts' (EA) racing game called Undercover. The one-off Scirocco will be revealed to public for the first time at the 2008 Essen Motoshow that runs 29 November to 7 December in Germany.
The show car is based on Scirocco with the 200HP strong 2.0-liter TSI engine and it sports a two-tone paint job that's adorned with NFS livery. VW Individual also equipped the Scirocco with a set of contrasting black 19-inch alloy wheels wrapped in 235/35 ZR19 Pirelli PZero rubber and a factory bodykit that consists of a front and rear spoiler lips, side sills and a roof spoiler. Mechanical upgrades are limited to 345mm front discs from the Golf R32 and the KW sport suspension.
The interior features more drastic changes as VW Individual's team stripped out the rear seats in order to fit in two 32-inch and two 19-inch Samsung monitors that are hooked up to three X-Box 360 video consoles, and eight high-end speakers. Other than that, the Scirocco sports EA's logo on the headrests and the NFS Undercover insignia on the steering wheel.
