Amazing car and performance with this 2004 Volkswagen Phaeton - Black

Perfect sedan, adult driven, V8 engine tuned to 360HP, Black, Bentley OEM wheels (19"), 140,000 well taken care miles. Clean title, Leather seats, humongous trunk, Amazing sound system, front and rear massage chairs and front and rear climate controls. The most amazing car VW has ever built. Has been rock solid for me. Perfect for a large family. The back seat space will fit anything! All buttons working, windows, etc...

Small cosmetic issues in passenger seat (small rip, fixable) and a small scratch in passenger fender and bumper. (very small). Annoying TPMS, that's it. No dings,  No leaks, still looks sharp. 

Get the performance of an Audi RS6 with the size of an Audi A8L or Audi RS6 and the Luxury and feel of a Bentley Flying Spur. Better than a BMW 7 Series or Mercedes S class. 

I am the 2nd owner of the Phaeton, and have taken good care of it for the last 6 years. It is a late MY 2004, 5 seater, with rear climate control and massage seats. It has 140,000 miles. Here is what it has in extras:

- Added in the Stage 1 chip software to boost HP to 356HP and removed the limiter 3 years ago. I have documentation & videos! 

- Facelifted OEM front that added 2007 chrome bits to the foglights (not available in other US cars)

- Has extra OEM wooden handles and wooden covers for the cupholders

- 19" OEM Bentleys from a 2005 Bentley Flying Spur

- 2010 full set of navigation discs - BMW

- Everything works inside - all buttons.


Work already done this year:

- Thermostat, Timing Belt and Starter were all done at dealership at 135K miles (1st timing belt was done at 80K miles)

- New Kessy unit 

- New Brake Pads

- Fresh Auxiliary Battery


Needs attention later:

- Small rip on the leather seat (front passenger seat) right at the very edge, so its very fixable - quoted $120

- Will need new tires and fresh control arms (optional). 

- A small scratch at the very bottom of the passenger side front fender and a tiny one in front bumper - will need retouching. No dings.

- The wheels still look amazing, if you can, a small refinish would make you smile. 

Car has always been taken care at dealer or small issues at specialized VW independent places. 

This is a perfect way to get started on a Phaeton. Price is very reasonable. I already have purchased another car, so I'd like to sell my Phaeton and I'm not in a rush. Please ping me and let me know your Q's. Reserve is very reasonable.   If you use BUY IT NOW - Will get it detailed again for you prior to purchase. 

Selling because I've already purchased other vehicle and have very limited parking. 

Have all service records from VW Dealership. Major services all done this Summer already (yes, timing belt, brakes, starter, fresh battery) and have owned this car as the 2nd owner for the last 5 years. 

Buy it now with a very reasonable reserve price –  

Payment via Paypal and I require an immediate deposit of $500 same day as auction ends. (Refundable after 10 days if not buying car) Full payment within 3 days of auction end. NO EXCEPTIONS. Will help drive to transport company. 

Motivated to sell but not in a rush.

You can see the car in Milpitas, San Jose or Sunnyvale if you are a local of the Bay Area.

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war

Sun, 30 Dec 2012

A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?

VW confirms new TDI for second half of 2014 in Golf, Jetta, Passat and Beetle

Tue, 18 Mar 2014

Diesel lovers rejoice. Volkswagen is bringing the latest iteration of its 2.0-liter four-cylinder diesel engine - dubbed the EA288 - to the 2015 model year Golf, Jetta, Passat, Beetle (2013 model pictured above) and Beetle Convertible, and the cars will be on sale in the second half of 2014.
While it shares its moniker with the old diesel, the new engine produces 150 horsepower, a 10-hp boost, and 236 pound-feet of torque. VW promises improved fuel economy as well, but it hasn't announced specifically what amount yet. The company claims that despite the same displacement, only the bore spacing is shared with the previous version. The mill includes new features like exhaust gas recirculation, an intercooler integrated into the intake manifold and low-friction camshaft bearings.
VW Group of America has had great success with diesels in the US recently. Vee-Dub and Audi sold 105,899 diesel-equipped models in 2013. It was the first time the group ever sold over 100,000 diesels in a year, and they accounted for 24 percent of sales. Scroll down to read the full press release about the announcement.
