For sale: the funnest car I've ever owned. It's not perfect. Just a few paint chips here and there. They didn't paint under the hood or the trunk, but the original color in it's original condition is displayed there and I think it looks cool. You can see the motor has been upgraded. It runs and drives perfectly. Starts every time and goes down the road with no problem. Disk brakes all around, and a killer custom sound system. Ipod, blue tooth, subwoofer, etc. Here are it's faults in a nutshell:

No paint under the hood and trunk

A couple of paint chips, and the front and rear apron could have been done better as far as body work goes

When loaded down with two adults and a great dane, the front tires will rub on the fenders when you hit a big bump

The ragtop mechanism works fine, but it's just a bit sticky when returning it to the front.

The left rear fender has a dent in it, but a complete set of replacement fenders is included.

Speedometer needle is homemade and wooden. Someone's custom work, and it works fine, but the purists would want to know about it.

No heat system. All been removed, but channels are fine. Tubes coming in from engine compartment are filled w insulation, for obvious reasons

Someone who knows what they're doing needs to do new window felts on this thing, and put stock window cranks on it.

Here's the good stuff:

Runs perfectly. Starts every time, goes like hell

While "leather" (Might be real, but I doubt it) interior that cleans up easy and is quite durable

White window rubber (Hawaiian look) is the last of it's kind as far as I know.

Garage Kept, rubber and plastic in good shape

The stereo is a custom dream come true. Plug in your ipod, run pandora, nice low end from the sub without blowing you out.

Full set of spare fenders

Full set of spare wheels (cookie cutters, like the ones that are mounted)

Guages, wipers, lights, all good.

Disk brakes do the job QUICK.

A box of assorted goodies will accompany the sale. Trim pieces, doo dads, oh, and a transmission.

This is not the kind of vehicle you sell unless you have to, and friends, I have to. It will bring it's new owner years of joy.

Bidders in the contiguous 48 only please. $500 deposit due in 24 hours, the rest due in 7 days. Cash in hand, wire transfer or certified check.

VW midsize crossover production headed for Chattanooga

Fri, 10 Jan 2014

Potential labor woes aside, it looks like Volkswagen's Chattanooga, TN factory must have done something that impressed the bosses in Germany, because it sounds like the three-year-old factory is set to score a second model.
The factory currently builds the Passat, and has been in the running alongside VW's Puebla, Mexico factory to build a new crossover vehicle, likely based on the CrossBlue Concept. According to Bloomberg, a pair of unnamed sources have confirmed that Chattanooga is the favorite ahead of an official announcement.
When last we heard about the CrossBlue Concept, word was that a production decision had been delayed over concerns about the three-row CUV's business case. That August 2013 story claimed that a decision regarding the CrossBlue would be pushed back until early in 2014, which means we're ripe for some sort of news, whether good or bad.

Volkswagen Group names Paefgen head of classics program

Tue, 04 Oct 2011

You may remember the name Franz-Josef Paefgen. Until recently, the German engineer and executive was head of both Bentley and Bugatti. Before that he was chief executive of Audi, after working for several years at Ford. He technically "retired" earlier this year, but like the cars he helped create, an executive like Paefgen could never really retire. So it should come as little surprise that the Volkswagen Group has named Dr. Paefgen head of its Classic program.
In his new capacity, Paefgen will oversee the historic automobile activities of the entire VW Group, including those of Volkswagen, Seat, Skoda, Audi, Lamborghini, and of course Bentley and Bugatti. It strikes us as a suitable semi-retirement for the man responsible in no small part for the Bugatti Veyron and Bentley Mulsanne, to name just two, and who was decorated in 2006 by the ACO as the "Spirit of Le Mans" for his contribution to endurance racing. Read the official announcement after the break.

VW Golf GTI wrung out by Chris Harris

Thu, 27 Jun 2013

Enthusiasts like nothing more than to crucify modern interpretations of their favorite performance models for failing to live up to some imagined ethos. Even the Volkswagen GTI has suffered its fair share of slings and arrows for growing in size and curb weight. Chris Harris recently spent some time with the all-new MK VII GTI to find out if growing up means giving up on what makes the machine so special.
Judging by his comments, Harris certainly doesn't think so. Yes, the new GTI is considerably more comfortable than its predecessors, but that's hardly a bad thing. The multitude of driving modes actually seem to add depth to the car rather than simply try to force one tool to do many jobs, and Harris even finds the machine's electronic power steering tolerable. As a result, Harris goes so far as to call the Volkswagen GTI "one of the best cars to actually own." How's that for high praise? You can watch the video for yourself by scrolling below.
