Coupe vs Scirocco not so silly

[Tom Leppke-Hennig]

Not such a big faux pas. They are actually demonstarting a good eye for
design. Both the Audi Coupe and the first generation Scirocco were
"penned" (stupid automotive-press term) by Italian designer Giorgetto
Giugiaro (VW Golf I, Scirocco I, Lotus Esprit, Eagle Premier Isuzu
Impulse I (!) and on and on and on). Thank them for noticing, I say!
