For sale is this fun little 1965 VW Beetle. I found this one in a barn while doing some community outreach at the residence next door and asked the owner if it was possibly for sale. He had been moving it around over and over and decided to sell.. I have had this car and been using it for the last year or so to do errands around town and it has just been a blast! People are always waving and coming over to check it out when I park at the store or what have you. At any rate, the street in front of our business is closing for a major remodel and I have moved my office and the cars home and need to reduce inventory.
This '65 is in original paint, the radio works, and she runs awesome for a 40HP engine. I have come to belive that the 98,170 miles is probably actual from the titling record, but haven't gone to the trouble to verify it without a doubt. The car hasn't been on the road since 1988, so completely possible to be true miles, in my opinion. Haven't checked the mpg but have had others with this same engine and got around 28-30mpg or more consistently. The interior is new West Coast Metric materials, including fire resistant foam cushions in place of the original horse hair/fire-bomb stuff for extra safety. The bodywork tells the story of this little cars life and could never be replicated by the new "distressing" treatments some guys are giving perfectly good old cars to "create" the kind of patina this car has for real. The car came out of Colorado and comes to you with a clean Colorado title. Drive it home today, or we can deliver for $1.00 per mile anywhere. Thanks for looking and happy bidding. Jay.

Car companies may need to start curbing model proliferation
Mon, 17 Nov 2014Looking at the current automotive landscape, especially from German makers, you quickly get the impression that less definitely isn't more. BMW alone offers its 3 Series platform in practically every segment possible, including the regular sedan and 4 Series Gran Coupe, which would seem to be direct competitors. Porsche might be the winner, though, with 20 different variants of the 911 listed for sale on its US website. However, some of this model madness might be reaching an end as companies begin cutting back spending or shifting money to other priorities.
According to Yahoo Finance, the offerings from the German automakers are up 25 percent over the past three years to over 200 models in Europe. The peak is expected to come around 2018 at 230 separate vehicles, according to consulting company PwC.
Amazingly, BMW, which is among the poster children for this model explosion, might be changing its tune. "I'm sure there will be points in the future where we look at certain cars and say, 'Maybe we need to think differently now,'" said head of sales Ian Robertson in an interview, according to Yahoo Finance. The statement certainly sounds shocking coming from a company rumored to have 23 front-wheel-drive vehicles all using a single platform on the way.
VW Golf Sportsvan succeeds Golf Plus in Frankfurt
Sun, 08 Sep 2013
Just ahead of this week's Frankfurt Motor Show, Volkswagen has announced the world premiere of its Golf Sportsvan, a near-production concept that succeeds its Golf Plus. VW describes this compact family car as "one of the most versatile vehicles of the compact class," noting that it offers a mix of hatchback and minivan features in a sporty package.
That sportiness comes from the Sportsvan's styling (perhaps more sleek wagon than minivan) and performance features it shares with the Golf GTI - including the XDS+ electronic differential lock, which is integrated into the Electronic Stability Control system to improve agility. At the same time, the Sportsvan's six engine options, which include a turbodiesel, are up to 19-percent more fuel-efficient than their predecessors.
Volkswagen Passat gets Wolfsburg Edition, priced from $23,495*
Tue, 23 Apr 2013Volkswagen has just announced a new Passat Wolfsburg Edition, which slots between the base S and mid-grade SE trims in terms of content and price. The automaker has not released any official photos of the car as of this writing (aside from the badge shot you see here, of course), but the Wolfsburg Passat will be visually set apart from the rest by a unique set of 16-inch alloy wheels.
The big host of upgrades for the Wolfsburg Edition are found inside, where buyers will enjoy standard amenities like leatherette seats (with bun-warmers on the front chairs), a power driver's seat, satellite radio and a media interface with iPod connectivity. Of course, this comes on top of the already standard Passat features like Bluetooth and auto on/off headlamps. The Wolfsburg Passat will only be available with the 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine and a six-speed automatic transmission.
Look for the 2013 Wolfsburg Edition Passat to hit dealerships in the very near future, priced from $23,495, *not including $795 for destination. Have a look below for Volkswagen's official press blast.
