Awesome 2008 Gti, Apr Stage 1 on 2040-cars
Utica, New York, United States
|
I've got a 2008 Volkswagen GTI that's in great condition. In all the years I have owned this vehicle, it has never once given me any real mechanical problems. It runs flawlessly and I have maintained it meticulously. I have summer tires on it now, but I also have a set of 4 snow tires mounted on different rims that you can get changed over for free. All 8 tires are in good condition and should save you the money of having to buy new tires anytime soon. It's got a brand new battery, and doesn't need anything besides an oil change in another 2,000 miles or so. I don't want to forget to mention it has an automatic car starter! I've got 2 fobs that start the car, and also have 2 original key fobs. I've got about 95% of the paperwork of the GTI's mechanical history as well from since I owned it.
This is not a normal GTI... this GTI is APR Stage 1, which means that basically instead of a normal GTI, you get 50 more horsepower and it also actually improves your MPG (I usually get 30MPG with city and highway combined). You get a 250 horsepower car that doesn't weigh much. This car is awesome and it hauls ass. I love the car but I can't afford the payment on it anymore so I have to let it go. I've replaced it with an old Honda Civic unfortunately. It's a DSG auto/manual gearbox. Awesome leather steering wheel. Cruise Control. Sunroof. You'll love this GTI. Give me a shout and take it for a ride... you won't want to drive home in anything else! Tom (ThreeOneFive) 272-5059 *** 100% Positive feedback. Bid with Confidence. *** |

VW outsells GM in China for first time in 8 years
Fri, 26 Oct 2012In case you didn't know, Volkswagen is hell-bent on becoming the largest automaker in the world. The German carmaker has inched closer to that goal, having outsold General Motors in China last quarter for the first time in eight years.
Volkswagen's sales in China, its largest marker, increased by 21 percent last quarter to 704,991 units. Those numbers almost tripled GM's third-quarter growth, and were enough to beat out the American automaker's 664,765 sales. GM, however, still leads in year-to-date sales in China by a slim margin of around 77,000 units. The Asian nation also happens to be GM's largest market, and according to the report in Automotive News, China's car market may grow to be larger than the US, Japan and Germany combined in three years' time.
About the news his company was bested in China by VW last quarter, GM CEO Dan Akerson is quoted saying, "It's not whether you're the biggest car manufacturer. It's whether you want to be the most profitable." It should be noted of these figures that GM includes truck figures, yet excludes Hong Kong and Macau from its Chinese sales numbers, while VW does just the opposite. Through September of this year, Volkswagen had 5 of the 10 best selling vehicles in China. GM boasted three of the cars on that list.
VW midsize crossover production headed for Chattanooga
Fri, 10 Jan 2014Potential 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.
2014 VW Golf brings storied hatchback's seventh generation to US
Wed, 27 Mar 2013The seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf in US-specification officially debuts at the 2013 New York Auto Show. The new model is the first VW in the States to ride on the company's MQB architecture, and as such, it makes use of plenty of high-strength and ultra-high-strength steel to keep weight down. All told, the new shell is 51 pounds lighter than the outgoing generation, despite the fact that the finished car is a full 2.2 inches longer and .5 inches wider than the 2013 model.
Buyers can expect to find a base model powered by a 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine (blue car above) with 170 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque. That means the powerplant delivers the same horsepower as the old naturally aspirated 2.5-liter four-cylinder while weighing less and producing seven extra pound-feet of torque. TDI (silver car above) buyers, meanwhile, will enjoy a new 2.0-liter turbo diesel four-cylinder mill. VW says the engine yields 10 more horsepower than the old lump, which means the Golf TDI now boasts 150 hp and 236 lb-ft of torque.
GTI (red car above) buyers will now get their hands on a revised 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with approximately 210 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque - Volkswagen hasn't finalized power numbers for that machine. We're happy to see that the GTI still features its trademark plaid seats. Volkswagen says the new Golf and GTI will go on sale as a 2015 model, but doesn't say when the car will actually hit dealerships.
