New Compact Coupe Concept

[DMS_SLiC]

Couldn`t have said it better myself!!

As for the 2+2 seating arrangement of the NCC,I think it`s appropriate for a coupe but the Jetta sedan needs to be a 5 seater.
What do you think?
Btw,they went back to the Corrado style rear seats,at least in concept form..awesome!

[am1899]

I agree...for the coupe, it's fine. Actually, I think it's pretty cool. But the sedan should be a 5 seater.

[2000bora2.0]

Damn just flipped through this whole thread, and virtually no pchops...I wanna see the potential of this thing!

[ERROL]

love it!

[Crash-N-Burn]

Wow, I can like Jettas again. Yeah.

I'm at the point where I could get by with a four seater for quite a few years, but then there is always those times where you really need a fifth or more seats... The sedan should have five seats and I hope they don't chop the roofline so far that the rear seat only has enough headroom for my daughters. Both of them are just over five foot and find the back of my beetle uncomfortable for longer than 30 minute rides. Rereading my post, I realized I've been living with a four seater for 10 years now.

I still want the hybrid with a TDI instead of gas. Let's get that EPA milage over 70.

Although I love the 2+2 design for some reason I don't think it'll stay that way in production form. The cc has it and working at a VW dealer I get alot of ppl that don't like or can't buy the car bc of the 2+2 design. I personally love it and only have one child to put in the back. But for a larger family the cc simply doesn't work.

I do think though that the 4 seat design is more appropriate on the Jetta coupe than it is on the cc. Mainly bc I think that a jetta coupe will attract a typically younger demographic than the cc does.

is this really going to happen? if so put me in line, especially if there is an ///r version

hardtop conv any1?

[Vamped]

No vote on hardtop conv for me. I don't like the extra weight and complexity and the expense. I like light weight, simplicity and performance. I have a rag top S2000 and 3 coupes and no sunroofs.

[orly22]

yeah leave the conv to the EOS. Now can we see some photoshops of this car!?

[mjmi11er]

same here, i'd rather have a coupe then a hardtop vert

[tuckeje]

plus sometimes on hard top coupes the rear end gets sort of bulbous at times

[MaDVR6]

Nice!

[mjmi11er]

tach_limit, is that for me?

[tach_limit]

Sure, if you want it to be.

Actually, I kind of passed over this car when it was first shown - thought it was a bit meh - but then I read the speculation about an R-version and it got the gears cranking, so I took a second look at it.

It's actually a pretty well-resolved design - I like the strong shoulder line that runs the length of the car, and because of it the raised hood works a lot better here, IMO, than on the Jetta IV.

The rear end treatment is very A5-esque, which I see as a good thing. The A5 is a very attractive car. I don't agree that it dilutes the Audi brand, or rather, that it matters much. I'd rather VW made the best car they could instead of "dumbing down" the design for marketing reasons.

I thought the car's design had potential, but to my eye this car, as with a lot of cars in stock form, is not all it could be. So it was time to break out photoshop. My tastes run clean, low, and wide, which probably isn't for everyone.

The kit I added has more in common with the VIP-style that originates from Japanese tuning houses than typical Euro or American style tuning. Very clean and without superfluous vents, wings, etc. (also much easier to photoshop). I think it really accentuates the lines of the car without detracting from them, and gives it a nice, "hunkered down" look. Interestingly, I didn't actually lower the car at all; it's all the kit and the wheels that give it that low stance.

The wheels are Rinspeed C5/1s, which so far as I know are only made for Porsches and Range Rovers. They're probably my favorite wheels. I don't know offhand if it's reasonable to get them to fit this car, but they seem to work well with the design. As long as I'm making fantasy stuff in photoshop, may as well, right? And yes, I know the brake discs are a bit small for the wheel size; they were that way in the donor photo, and I didn't care to take the time to try to fix it.

So yeah, I photoshopped the car for my own interest mainly, but I posted it here because you guys were wanting to see some shops.

[20th875]

Ya, I like. A bit low, but very nice. Just clean lines that accentuate a muscular look. They seem to compliment the car well. Nice pshop job.

[ItalianGLI]

I was thinking of getting a used e90 BMW but if the Jetta sedan seriously looks like this, then I might be looking at getting one of these. Good job VW

[Tuxedo]

I'm obviously in the minority, but I really don't like it. The hood and front end look like a Honda.

[orly22]

WOW that is a great photoshop!

And re badge the New Scirocco Type 13 as the GOLF GTI sport because that is what it is. Or just stop making the Type 13 and start making what you see above as the Scirocco MK4 or Corrado is cool too. And then import what you see above to the US.

[Kronkinator]

Sooo much better than the MkV. I'd love to see this as a GLI

[2000bora2.0]

Are you looking at this VW?

[quailallstar]

Does anyone have the part number or name of these wheels? I think these would look nice on a Golf as well.

[Scuba2001]

Aren't the wheels the same as what comes off of the Scirocco?

I love the looks of this car. I wanted a BMW 335 Coupe, but couldn't justify the price. So I bought my GLI because I had an MKI and MKIII Jetta. I have really like all my Jetta's including this one. I like the looks of the 2+2 design, however I have a dog and he goes with me everywhere so a coupe and the 2+2 design make it a not-so-great car for me. Plus, it would have to have better performance than my current GLI. Don't think I would like a hybrid!!
