For auction is two Porsche Boxsters in order to make one.  The black one is a great rolling 2001 Boxster S chassis with complete S suspension still installed, all main wiring harness installed with NO cuts to any wires, All abs system is intact, no brake lines were cut or damaged. Fuel system is all intact, with no fuel lines cut. Body is in nice shape, but has some small dings, that can easily be repaired. Please see pictures as to what is still in place and what is not. This Porsche would be a great start for a race car or if you have a wrecked car and want a clean title S body. This black car hasn't been in any accidents, the car had engine failure and is now in its current condition. Car has only 66,171 miles on chassis, and clean car fax. The yellow one is a regular 2002 Boxster 2.7L which was complete without accidents as well but the title is non-rebuildable.  The yellow is missing right now the seats and a left rear quarter panel was cut to fix another one (not the black one).  The original yellow front and rear bumper covers were sold and now I have a rear white one which needs repair and a fiberglass front one that I was planning to cut and customize as a GT2.  This is a project to take the power train and parts from the yellow one and install in the black Boxster S.  I was going to do it but now I have other plans.  With the money you sell the extra parts of the yellow that the black one don't need you can make money for the seats, etc.  The Black Boxster is missing the steering wheel but you can exchange the one in the yellow (which I will leave loose) for loading and unloading.  The cluster of the yellow has about 82K miles.  The extra parts you can sell are the front hood, doors, front fenders, wheels, tires in good shape, and even the chassis, etc.   There are some parts that look missing in the yellow Boxster like the gauge cluster, trunk carpets and the passenger door panel but I have them. Please ask any question you have. I was planning to install a turbo kit in the car just to increase the horsepower and response (even more than a Boxster S), so basically you could have a Boxster S for cheap if you are willing to exchange the parts.  You don't need an engine lift because it gets out from the bottom.  The vehicles are offered locally for sale.  I have the right to stop the auction if the reserve price have not been met.  I'm loosing money in this deal but I need them out of my garage ASAP.

VW may move production because of Russia's cutoff of natural gas

Sun, Sep 25 2022

Volkswagen AG is exploring ways to counter a shortage in natural gas, including shifting production around its network of global facilities, signaling how the energy crisis unleashed by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine threatens to upend EuropeÂ’s industrial landscape. Volkswagen, EuropeÂ’s biggest carmaker, said Thursday that reallocating some of its production was one of the options available in the medium term if gas shortages last much beyond this winter. The company has major factories in Germany, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, which are among European countries most reliant on Russian gas, as well as facilities in southern Europe that source energy from elsewhere. “As mid-term alternatives, we are focusing on greater localization, relocation of manufacturing capacity, or technical alternatives, similar to what is already common practice in the context of challenges related to semiconductor shortages and other recent supply chain disruptions,” Geng Wu, VolkswagenÂ’s head of purchasing, said in a statement.  RussiaÂ’s decision to throttle gas supplies to Europe has raised concerns that Germany might be forced to ration its fuel. Recent news that gas storage levels hit 90% ahead of schedule has soothed fears of acute shortages this winter, but Germany faces a challenge in replenishing depleted reserves next summer without contributions from Russia. Southwestern Europe or coastal zones of northern Europe, both of which have better access to seaborne liquefied natural gas cargoes, could be the beneficiaries of any production shift, a Volkswagen spokesman said by phone. The Volkswagen group already operates car factories in Portugal, Spain and Belgium, countries that host LNG terminals. Labor hurdles To be sure, any major production shift away from EuropeÂ’s biggest economy would face significant hurdles. VW has some 295,000 employees in Germany and worker representatives account for around half the companyÂ’s 20-member supervisory board. Any shift in production would likely involve a limited number of vehicles rather than wholesale factory shutdowns. While gas supplies for VWÂ’s plants are currently secured, the company has identified potential savings at its European sites to cut gas consumption by a “mid-double-digit percentage,” said Michael Heinemann, managing director of VWÂ’s power-plant unit. Still, the carmaker said it was concerned about the effect high gas prices could have on its suppliers.

VW confirms development of 10-speed dual clutch, 134-hp/liter diesel

Fri, 26 Apr 2013

Each year, the Vienna International Motor Symposium showcases some of the up-and-coming technologies automakers are engineering for the use in passenger cars, and Volkswagen AG CEO Martin Winterkorn revealed some big developments VW is working on for its future products. Winterkorn discussed a multi-faceted approach that VW is looking to reduce its fleet fuel consumption and exhaust emissions.
Some of the bigger news he discussed included a "high-performance" diesel engine that will produce 134 horsepower per liter and a 10-speed DSG automatic transmission. While no specific applications were mentioned, we can only hope this is for the Audi R4 we keep hearing about.
Another topic he touched on that caused us to perk up our ears was had to do with VW's plug-in hybrid technology. While we know the PHEV versions of the Audi A3 and Porsche Panamera are on the way, Winterkorn also said that these two models will be followed up by Golf, Passat, Audi A6 and Porsche Cayenne plug-in models. Scroll down for a press release highlighting the automaker's future fuel-saving initiatives.
