I tested both the Golf and Scirocco 1.4.. I'd say Golf is more practical but Scirocco looks more sporty. Too bad the Scirocco is selling so expensive compared to the Golf.. in the end I opted for a BMW Z4 since performance and looks it beats the Scirocco.

not the latest one.. its a recond unit for RM190k. The latest one looks good too but priced beyond budget..approx 500k+. Before this there were few other cars in my contention ie. the SLK, Porsche Boxster, Audi A4 and BMW 320d. SLK looks good from outside but so cramped inside.. I think it's more for ladies. Audi's waiting period too long ie. 6 months! the BMW 320d was also attractive but too many 3 series on the road. As for Porsche.. was afraid the maintenance would be too high as it's a 2nd hand unit I was considering. The Scirocco was a close 2nd however the 2.0 litre version was out of stock and the 1.4 I was afraid after getting it I would regret ie. 'should have gotten the 2.0 more powerful syndrome' so it made my choice easier.

I would agree with u if I don't have another slightly more practical car (Jag xj6).. the z4 is my 2nd car so I wanted something with more fun and easier to manouver I always wanted a topless car. If I have to have only 1 car I would have chosen the Scirocco. Simply more sexy compared to the Golf which I think is too much of an understatement in terms of looks and too many ladies driving it. Only drawback is the price ... approx 250k which I think is overpriced.
