 the car for skinny people - bigger thighs don't fit under steering wheels.
 I'd bet there are a few bigger guys out there (ok, PC time, girls too;)
 that want to drive Sciroccos -  >>

Okay, answer me this:  I have one of each, and I am 6'5", and weigh 162lbs.
 I have about three millimeters of headroom in my Scirocco, but with the
seats that I put in my Rabbit GTi (even though the thing currently doesn't
have a motor in it, I still ut Scirocco seats in there) I have about three
feet of headroom (honestly, I can barely see over the steering wheel with the
seat adjusted all the way down!!!!)  Really, what I want to put in the Rabbit
GTi is a pair of power Recaros from a '92ish GLi or GTi (who doesn't. right?)
 But, now I'm starting to ramble.
