1994 Volkswagen Jetta Gl Sedan 4-door 2.0l Track Car - Not A Street Car on 2040-cars
Springfield, Illinois, United States
|
This is a track car. Don't buy this to drive on the street.
Here's a 1994 VW Jetta, 5 speed stick, crank windows, no sunroof. We removed the trunk stuff, back seat, radio, A/C coil, wipers, and got her down to 2400 lbs with a half tank of gas. This car will run with Miatas all day, and get 20 MPG doing it. Motor - basically unmodified 2.0 four, did a light polish and gasket match on the intake, and a tuneup. Uses no oil, pulls willingly to the redline. Removed the factory airbox and installed a no-name oil media air filter. Suspension - no-name ebay coilovers. About 2 inches clearance up front, adjustable from slammed to 3 inches. 2 degrees negative camber, comes with factory strut bolts and Moog cam bolts so you can dial in whatever camber you want. Brakes - stock, no ABS. You're on your own. Wheels - comes with one set of 15 inch, 4x100, 205-50 Kumho Excta XS tires, and one set of factory 14 inch steelies with no-names good for tow dolly use. Body - she's a midwestern girl. Expect some rust. Nothing structural, but the rust is through one seam in the trunk - see picture. This car went to the $2013 Challenge and held it's own. Then, she did several HPDE events this year. It's a barrel of monkeys, and likes to lift it's inside rear wheel to say "piss on you" to whoever I just passed. So - this car would make you a great HPDE starter car, or throw in a cage and go LeMonsing or Chumping. Heck, the horn works, so take her down to the county fairgrounds and run the hornets. Just don't buy this to drive on the street. Terms - $500 Paypal deposit in 48 hours, balance cash on pickup. Delivery within 500 miles for $1 a mile. |

US-spec 2015 Volkswagen Golf and GTI to finally debut in New York
Tue, 12 Mar 2013The seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf is hardly new to us. In fact, we've already driven it. And elsewhere in the world, the new Golf is already winning awards. Even so, we still have yet to see the US-spec version of the car, though that won't be the case much longer. As part of the New York Auto Show festivities later this month, Volkswagen will finally show off the 2015 Golf models destined for our shores.
Three different versions of the Golf will debut under the lights of New York City's Javits Center: the turbocharged TSI, oil-sipping TDI and hotter GTI. The first model in that list uses Volkswagen's new 1.8-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine, replacing the outgoing 2.5-liter naturally aspirated inline five-cylinder. The latter two models use familiar engines: the 2.0-liter TDI diesel and 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, respectively.
Even though the new Golf officially debuts later this month, it won't go on sale in the US until the first quarter of 2014. We'll be waiting patiently.
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 readying CC Shooting Brake?
Mon, 11 Feb 2013This was bound to happen. Volkswagen's relentless drive for big volume has the brand mining seemingly every niche it can find for additional sales worldwide. And with its CLS Shooting Brake, fellow countryman Mercedes-Benz has already shown that a wagon based off of a "four-door coupe" can look dead sexy and command extra dollars. So it follows that the Volkswagen CC (whose existence is all but directly attributable to the success of the original CLS sedan) will also get a load-lugging variant. That's according to the UK's Autocar, which notes that the five-door will come in the CC's next generation.
According to the report, the next CC will be available in front and all-wheel drive variants with the usual assortment of gas and diesel four-cylinders found in the Wolfsburg empire, with the possibility of a gas plug-in hybrid model, too. The rakish estate will ride atop VW's MQB architecture, a shorter variant of which is also found underneath the new Golf. The scalable chassis is set to spread like kudzu throughout the company's lineup, but the CC probably won't happen until after the launch of the next European-market Passat in 2015.
Will we get it in North America? Hard to say. Volkswagen sells the standard CC saloon here, but not in particularly large numbers, and when the company moved to a North American-specific Passat, it dumped the wagon variant. The traditional VW estate apparently continues to pick up sales momentum abroad, however, making the CC Shooting Brake a seemingly natural fit for buyers who still want the utility of a two-box form but can afford to sacrifice a bit of cargo room in the name of style.
