Here is a totally one of a kind GTI with low miles. This car garners attention wherever it goes, and has had a ton of online exposure as well. This car means a lot to me and the only reason I'm selling is because I have too many cars as it is. Lets start out with the basics: it has 46,000 miles on it with no mechanical issues present. The car is far from stock, however mostly oem parts were used in the build. The exterior is in 9.9/10 condition with a lot of tasteful, subtle mods: the front end was lightly damaged by a tire tread on the highway, which coerced me into buying a Jetta Wolfsburg front upper and lower center grille ($300) with r-line fog grilles ($120) housing projector foglights ($120), the front bumper is a stock gti bumper with the ugly washer covers and sidemarkers professionally shaved ($600-$800) and an oem Votex Lip installed ($300). The fenders aren't mangled like many lowered cars are, and neither are the quarters. The stock body has ugly rubstrips running down the sides, with something like 18 holes to hold them in. These strips have been shaved, filled, and welded like they were never there. The sideskirts are votex sideskirts ($200), and the rear bumper is an oem r32 unit ($800+paint) with a rare shaved lower valence ($300). The entire car has been resprayed in a custom pearl white (looks hyper white in most light, but put it under a parking lot light or in a parking garage and the blue really comes out (my favorite feature on the car) The taillights are oem euro led's ($550). The car will come on a set of rare BBS Impuls in MINT condition, and sized at 18x8/9et38 with good tires ($2,500 before tires). Also included are the factory huffs with Michelin Pilot Aplin 2/3s with tons of tread left. The car is sitting on a top of the line airride system, no cheap parts anywhere in this system. It has airlift slam series front bags, with ss5 rears mounted in d-cups. The management is accuair e-level (the best) with a cleanly installed rocker switch to control it, with dual 444c compressors, 3/8 inch line, dual watertraps (the airride kit without the trunk setup is $4000)The trunk has a completely custom dual tank hardline setup painted to match the exterior of the car ($1500 just for the parts and hardware alone). Inside you will find a semting touchscreen navigation headunit with wiring that needs to be checked since it produces a lot of static, a complete oem leather seat swap, a euro dash cubby euro lower dash cubby, euro switch, full led lighting, (the sub and amp will not be included, but the wiring will be left in. Move on to the engine bay and you will find a neuspeed pflo intake, an external oil catch can, oem rev D diverter valve, APR stage one ecu, full mount kit including engine, trans, and dogbone mounts to make the car more dynamic ($500 for the mounts). Any issues the car has are extremely minor, and like I said this is a well known and appreciated car in Chicago, with a bit of a following. I was going to part it out but decided that someone on here might be able to get as much enjoyment out of it that I did. Its a great driver with an almost perfect exterior, and an almost perfect interior (no blemishes or tears anywear).

Volkswagen hatches hotter GTI in Geneva
Tue, 05 Mar 2013The all-new seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf hasn't even launched here in the United States, but over in Geneva, we're already getting our first glimpse at the hotter GTI hatchback. The fancy new Mk VII Golf is already off to a healthy start with positive reviews in Europe, and we have no doubt that this next GTI will work hard to regain its title as king of the hot hatches.
The big news for this generation of GTI is that for the first time ever, Volkswagen is actually offering two different power grades for the model, both relying on the 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four. Standard cars pack 220 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, but an optional performance pack ups the horsepower number to 230. Hitting 60 miles per hour takes 6.5 seconds (6.4 with the performance pack) and top speed is quoted at 153 mph (or 155 with the performance kit). Volkswagen will continue to offer the GTI with both six-speed manual and dual-clutch transmissions.
On the visual front, the sub-3,000-pound GTI adds the usual bit of hot hatch aggression over the standard Golf, and those changes carry over to the interior with a flat-bottomed wheel and, of course, plaid seats. She's certainly a looker, and while some of us do find the new Golf's design to be a bit staid and evolutionary, the enhancements for the GTI indeed tug on our enthusiast heart strings.

Fri, 26 Apr 2013The 911 Of Hot Hatches Takes The Compact Game To New Levels
North American car buyers get a bit of a slap in the face when it comes to delivery schedules for new the Volkswagen Golf and pumped-up GTI models. We'll just repeat the old chestnut: It's worth the wait... even though it still stinks. This time around, Western Europe is taking deliveries of the new Golf as we speak, and GTI deliveries start between May and July. North America doesn't get the Mk7 Golf or GTI until about July of 2014.
So we approached our first drive of the new GTI with this chip on our shoulder: "You're making us wait? Well, then at least give us the exact car we'll be able to buy. No compromises, mein freund." And so it was that we extracted nearly all of our drive impressions from behind the wheel of what, for the United States, will technically be a model year 2015 two-door Volkswagen Golf GTI Performance with the standard six-speed manual.
Volkswagen Cross Up! headed for production after Geneva reveal
Wed, 13 Feb 2013The last time we saw the Volkswagen Cross Up!, it was sitting out in the snow in prototype form, but the next time we'll see this slightly more rugged version of the diminutive Up! hatchback will be when it makes its production debut at the Geneva Motor Show next month. Looking like a micro-crossover with its raised ground clearance and black cladding, the Cross Up! will be the fourth "Cross" model for VW (after the CrossPolo, CrossGolf and CrossTouran) when it goes on sale this summer in mainland Europe (UK sales remain up in the air and US sales are highly unlikely).
Overall, the styling of the production Cross Up! has stayed fairly true to the 2011 concept car, including the front and rear fascias that offer a more rugged look, stocky 16-inch wheels and roof rack side rails. Inside, this model will get unique interior enhancements such as "Cross Up!" sill plates and an instrument panel available in red, black or silver. Like the regular Up!, the Cross Up! is powered by a 74-horsepower, 1.0-liter three-cylinder engine paired to a five-speed manual transmission, and it doesn't look like all-wheel drive will be part of the picture. For more details on the upcoming Cross Up!, check out VW's press release posted below.
