Sexyrocco // Michael’s Scirocco on Vossen
The Scirocco.
A car that started as an exceptionally rare sight on our streets, yet now sporing like mushrooms during rainy days. People love them, and they’re now everywhere. When the model first landed in Indonesia, you can simply count with one hand the number of Sciroccos you spot in a day. These days, however, they’ve become the most popular choice for stylish two-door hatchback. All thanks to the introduction of its 1.4L model, which is much more attainable than the 2.0L, yet with looks that are just as sexy.
Its Golf-inspired nimbleness and one-of-a-kind looks are irresistible to car enthusiasts worldwide (except US I believe? I heard VW isn’t bringing Scirocco there for some reason). That’s why all over the web we’ve seen quite a lot of modification works done to the ‘Roc. From full-on performance builds (such as Ferry’s we featured earlier this week), to the aggressively slammed and fitted iterations. Meet Michael, owner of today’s Scirocco that’s obviously been obsessed with the latter.
A former owner of street-racing-themed Honda Jazz, Michael took an upgrade to the European offering through this Scirocco. For these past two years, he’s been enjoying all the luxuries and turbo-charged excitements that his Honda Jazz simply failed to deliver.
Wanting even more horsepower, the engine bay has been equipped with complete airflow upgrades, from K&N open air filter to Supersprint exhaust system, all sealed by a remapped ECU to utilise all those upgrades. Meanwhile, Michael has also opted for the 350mm VW Racing big brake kit as an upgrade to the Sexyrocco’s stopping power.
Moving on from the performance upgrades, such air suspension setup you’re looking at today is Michael’s latest addition to the build. Being the first-ever Scirocco on our streets to wear these 20″ Vossen CVT, Michael wanted to make the hatchback stand out even more through this AirRex suspension setup. Another first in the country, I believe.
He didn’t stop there either. Always wanting to be one-of-its kind in the game, Michael decided to craft custom bodyworks for his build. Nicely executed custom fender fins and skirts were some of the most prominent areas. Further complimented by Osir exterior and interior parts, these hand-picked aesthetic upgrades brought an entirely new and fresh flavour onto his already-outstanding build.
