We think so. A factory look and the perfect fit, what else could you ask for?  Not much apparently, or at least according to Podi, makers of the only OEM replacement steering column cover gauge pod.  Originally conceived as a “pod for an Audi”, Podi is known for developing the perfect factory feel for gauge pods and gauges for Volkswagens and Audis.  <span id="more-721"></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.vwtuningmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/golf-scirocco-r.jpg" alt="golf-scirocco-r" title="golf-scirocco-r" width="550" height="331" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-719" /> Volkswagen are proving that fuel consumption can be reduced even in the sporty high-end class with the 199 kW / 270 PS strong Golf R, which is now available to order. Thanks to a turbocharged high-tech TSI engine, it uses only 8.5 litres - 2.2 litres or 21 percent less than its predecessor. <span id="more-717"></span></p>
<p>In place of the six-cylinder engine, which has been typical in this class up to now, the new R models use turbocharged 2-litre, four-cylinder TSI engines. The four-wheel drive Golf R (350 Newton metres of torque at between 2,500 and 5,000 rpm) sprints to 100 km/h in 5.7 seconds (5.5 seconds for the Golf R DSG) and reaches an electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h. Two of the many visually distinguishing features of the completely individualized, exceptional Golf are LED headlights and newly developed LED rear lights. The Golf R is available to order in Germany from €36,400 (Germany).</p>
<p>The Scirocco R is an equally exceptional powerhouse with its sharp 2.0 TSI engine, front-wheel drive, unique look and exclusive equipment. Output: 195 kW / 265 PS. Advantages: High performance and torque values with significantly reduced fuel consumption. An average of merely 8.0 litres (DSG) of Super Plus per 100 kilometres flow into the combustion chambers via direct injection, which corresponds to CO2 emissions of 187 g/km - the best possible value for a 250 km/h (electronically limited) fast sports car. Eagerly anticipated following its successes at the Nürburgring 24-hour race, the model is now at dealerships from only €33,475 (Germany).</p>
<p>For all of the customers who wish to have especially dynamic bodywork and interior design in the spirit of the enhanced version of the R models, but a petrol or diesel vehicle with less power, the finishing specialists at Volkswagen Individual have designed the R-Line. The Golf R Line and Scirocco R Line can now also be ordered with exclusive features. These include distinctive 17-inch "Mallory" alloy wheels (18-inch optional), roof edge spoilers, R-designed bumpers, high-gloss radiator grill and a likewise black diffuser in the rear section. In the interior, sill panel strips show the R Line family resemblance. Sport seats in new design "Kyalami" with R Line logo in the headrests, a sport steering wheel, pedal covers and footrest in stainless steel round off the sporty image.</p>
<p>The Scirocco R is also successful in the virtual world. In just three weeks, the iPhone application Scirocco R 24h Challenge achieved over 1 million downloads. The high-speed racing game reached the App Store's number 1 spot in 32 countries, including Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Greece, Norway, Japan, Poland, Portugal and Mexico, and is already Volkswagen's second successful form of mobile marketing after the successful Polo Challenge at the beginning of this year.</p>

At the same time as the unveiling of the Scirocco R at the Frankfurt Motor Show (IAA) Volkswagen is revving it up with a new interactive racing game. <span id="more-692"></span></p>
<p>You drive in the "Scirocco R 24 hour Challenge" through series of difficult corners and expansive landscape similar to the Nürburgring. The game is available to download for free for the iPhone and the iPod touch now from the Apple App store.</p>
<p>A perfectly animated race circuit that comes so close to the legendary Nordschleife makes the "Scirocco R 24 hour Challenge" pure racing game fun. Three different play modes - qualifying mode, 24 hour mode and multiplayer mode (via Bluetooth) - liven up the game. Extras like the genuine engine sound of the Scirocco R, different sound effects and the chance to customise your own Scirocco R with the right exterior finish provide long lasting gaming fun. The player can choose to control it by touch screen or by tilt sensor to provide the best possible intuitive driving fun.</p>

<p>The star of the racing game, the Scirocco R, is the most powerful production Scirocco ever built. It's convincing with a performance of 195KW / 265 PS and 350 Nm torque. Many parts of the Scirocco R appear in the Scirocco motor sport design: large air inlets in the front bumper provide optimal cooling of the engine and the brakes. The rear section is dominated by the distinctly enlarged roof spoiler, a striking polished black diffuser as well as the chrome tail pipes.</p>
<p>The Scirocco R racing game marks the second time that Volkswagen has used this innovative form of marketing. In March at the premiere of the new Polo, the racing game "Volkswagen Polo challenge" was presented; with more than 1.4 million downloads in four weeks, it conquered the Apple App stores worldwide.</p>
