Here's an idea: Eos, no. Scirocco, yes.

How about both? I love my Eos, it is the greatest car I have ever owned. Hard top convertible with a sunroof..for under 40 grand. Only hardtop in the world at this point with both a sunroof and convertible. While I am sad that you folks will be denied a Scirocco, I am loving my Eos.

This is actually quite a beautiful car - I am a designer and this is a great design. Its a shame we may never see this car in USA I know quite a few people including myself who would purchase this car. The interior is damn perfect and Id love to see one in orange.

I'd say scrap the three-door GTI. Anyone who wants a practical-but-sporty car is going to buy the five-door, and anyone who bought the three-door would probably have picked the Scirocco if it was an option. Neither segment crosses over to the Eos.
Or they could jettison the New Beetle. Goodness know it's played out.

@ psarhjinian How about VW not scrapping anything, the three door GTI is cooler than the five door, every GTI i see on the road is the three door

gti > scirocco
