Since Volkswagen has a fine, world class wind tunnel, it is no suprise 
the Scirocco is so sleek. These drag figures have been replicated 
elsewhere if memory serves correctly. I'm looking through old Car & 
Driver mags circa '84 and '85, where they called the Scirocco one of the 
finest built cars in the road. These figures were in there. Of course 
they probably took them from VW.
