My wife and I decided to sell this car which is now even a more incredibly low price for someone who would like a great GTi that has great aftermarket products installed by a great company called RPM.  Additionally, I had the cluch replaced by the VW service which cost me $2,200 and did, so it would be like brand new. Aside from that, and when the RPM did all that they did...many people who see it think it's a brand new car...lol. Actually, in my opinion, while only a brand new car is perfect...this one is close to being like a new car and far better with all of the very expensive aftermarket products added. Now while we paid approximately $41,000 for the car, aftermarket products and the new cluch...we're selling it for a LOT less. In fact, we're selling it for about the same price as just a regular 2008 GTi.  For example, look at the other ones here on eBay.  Most are 14.5K to 15.5K and am sure all of them are nice yet ours has a LOT of aftermarket products in making it a Show Car!!  And yet, we'd also let someone buy it for less than $2,699 with ALL aftermarket products accept the current wheels and tires and you could replace them with the original wheels and tires that we still have here at no extra cost. The new wheels cost $5500 and the tires were approximately $400. Yes, it would be much better to buy it WITH the new wheels and tires, in my opinion...not just because the new wheels are BEST but also because you'd save $3,201 in those. This is a great price so...first come/first served!

"Show Car"? Sure, my son has done that locally due to the aftermarket products added. Meanwhile, The PA State Inspection was done this November which means all is good...no surprise to me. We bought it for him for $19,000 from the dealer in Wexford, PA. When we bought it, this car had 46,720 miles whereas now it has 54,822 so its only been driven 8,102 miles and FAR less since all the fantastic aftermarket products were added just before my son went to college.  He couldn't have a car there so we decided to sell it. The good news for the buyer is that it cost $20,000 for the aftermarket products that was installed by one of the best companies in the USA...called RPM and you can call the main one who did it, his name is Justin and he did really good! They were installed approximately only within the past 6 months when my son went to college...so it had less than 500 miles on the aftermarket products!! My son always referred to it as his "baby" and he drove it very well, kept it very clean and always took care of it. I'm NOT the expert about aftermarket products on cars yet my son sure is and I discovered that RPM is great in doing them. In effect, as told to me by my son, the mods include:

-2 13.5" JL audio Tw5 subwoofers
-Pioneer AppRadio Headunit
-Interior Red LED lights
-Autopilot v2 suspension
-18" BBS super RS's powder coated white
-Eurojet Turbo Back Exhaust
-Neuspeed P-flo cold air intake 

The good news for a buyer is that I own the car here in Pennsylvania and have the Title. I do require payment by cash or by your banks Cashier's Check. As for the latter, I would want to know about it prior to the buyer arriving to pick up the car as I will call your bank to confirm that it's legitimate. And then we'd go to my bank to confirm it as well. After that, the Title will be changed to the buyer at a place very close to our house after the payment is completed successfully.

Aside from the aftermarket products here's the details of the car as I understood it:

• 2008 Volkswagen GTI

• 2.0L l-4 TURBO engine

• 6-speed MANUAL transmission

• Beautiful candy white exterior

• Anthracite interior

• Great color combo!!!

• Xenon high intensity headlights

• Front fog lights

• Front air conditioning

• Cruise control

• On-board trip computer

• Sirius am/fm/mp3 premium stereo

• 6-disc cd changer

• 10 speakers and 2 HUGE Sub Woofers

• Power windows

• Power door locks

• Power side-view mirrors

• Light-tinted windows

• Four-wheel ABS brakes

• 3 ABS channels

• Brake assist

• Abs and driveline traction control

Shipping, if necessary, is full responsbility of buyer. If being shipped, full payment must first be received. If pick up, same applies though can be done simultaneously.

EU formally questions French government assistance of Peugeot's finance arm

Fri, 28 Dec 2012

Recently, the finance arm of PSA/Peugeot-Citroën was in such debt trouble that it was pricing itself out of the car loan market. The rates it was paying to service its debt, which was rated one step above junk, were so high that it was forced to charge car-buying customers higher rates than they could find elsewhere. This was adding to Peugeot's already impressive woes by sending revenue out the door to competitors.
Two months ago a deal was worked out with the French government whereby the state would provide 7 billion euro ($9 billion USD) in bonds to guarantee the finance arm's loans. The French government could nominate someone to join the Peugeot board, Peugeot would guarantee more French jobs, and on top of that deal, other banks would provide non-guaranteed loans. The government would take no equity stake in the car company.
Although not yet finalized, the arrangement is meant to create some breathing room for Peugeot Finance to lower its interest rates for customers, and a government-nominated board member, Louis Gallois, was recently named to Peugeot's supervisory board. The arrangement was also openly questioned by at least three competitors: Ford, Renault - which is 15-percent owned by the French government after it received state aid - and the German state of Lower Saxony, itself a 15-percent shareholder in Volkswagen.

This Or That: 1987 VW Vanagon Syncro vs. 1987 Land Rover Defender [w/poll]

Thu, 13 Nov 2014

As I scoured auction sites and classified ads for the perfect vehicle to take into battle with Autoblog Associate Editor Brandon Turkus, I knew I needed to find something unique. You see, I'm currently 0-2 at winning a round of This or That, in which two of our editors agree on a category, choose a side, and argue it out over a (mostly) friendly chain of emails.
The first time we did this, my chosen Fiat 500 Abarth took about a third of the popular vote in our reader poll. The second time, my lovely 1980 Oldsmobile 442 did just a little bit better against a 1989 BMW 635 CSi. Despite holding the opinion that my automotive choices, though perhaps a little bit more... obscure than my fellow editors, are still better, an outright win would go a long way toward boosting my vehicular self worth a few notches upward.
With all of that out of the way, even if three isn't my lucky number after all, I go into battle against Brandon knowing full well that I've made the perfect choice: A 1987 Volkswagen Vanagon Syncro. My rough-and-tumble van/'ute has a formidable opponent in the form of a 1987 Land Rover Defender, which, truth be told, is exactly what I was expecting from Turkus, a self-proclaimed Rover aficionado.

$1.4B hedge fund suit against Porsche dismissed

Wed, 19 Mar 2014

Investors have canvassed courts in Europe and the US to repeatedly sue Porsche over its failed attempt to take over Volkswagen in 2008 (see here, and here and here), and they have repeatedly failed to win any cases. You can add another big loss to the tally, with Bloomberg reporting that the Stuttgart Regional Court has dismissed a 1.4-billion euro ($1.95B US) lawsuit, the decision explained by the court's assertion that the investors would have lost on their short bets even if Porsche hadn't misled them.
Examining the hedge funds' motives for stock purchases and the bets that VW share prices would fall, judge Carola Wittig said that the funds didn't base their decisions on the key bits of "misinformation," and instead were participating simply in "highly speculative and naked short selling," only to get caught out.
With other cases still pending, the continued streak of victories bodes well for Porsche's courtroom fortunes, since judges will expect new information to consider overturning precedent. If there is any new info, it could come from the potential criminal cases still outstanding against former CEO Wendelin Wiedeking and CFO Holger Härter, who were both indicted on charges of market manipulation.
