scirocco in novel

Here is what someone posted on a local VW board:

This may not be very interesting, but I found the description funny. I'm reading a book called A Death in Vienna, by Daniel Silva. It's basically an spy/espionage book. Here is an paragraph about half way through the book.
Notice the spelling...

"Alfonzo Ramirez drove the last surviving Volkswagen Sirocco in the western hemisphere. It might have been dark blue once; now the exterior had faded to the color of pumice. The windshield had a crack down the center that looked like a bolt of lightning. Gabriel's door was bashed in, and it required much of his depleted reservoir of strength to pry it open. The air conditioner no longer worked, and the engine roared like a prop plane."
