1969 Classic Beetle , Near Perfect Condition ! on 2040-cars
Braselton, Georgia, United States
This is an extremely nice Volkswagen Beetle built in 1968 and is a 1969 Model year , it is a desirable color, Savannah Beige , has chrome wheels and Michelin XZX tires , wheels and tires are about 1500 dollars ( see Coker tire) the car has a Nardi wood steering wheel , the Bamboo under dash storage shelf and has a Great AM,FM XM satellite stereo , I bought this car last year from the Bob Stanek collection here in Atlanta , this car was restored by this avid VW collector and was his favorite and he drove it often . He had a phenominal paint job put on it complete bare metal inside and out , all trim and rubber removed ,completely disassembled as it should be done , paint on dash , inside door jams , window frames is exceptional and probably explains why the paint work was over $18,000 alone , it has new interior including headliner , floor mats , visors etc , again perfect . All new rubber trim was installed and motor and gearbox were rebuild to perfection , runs , starts, steers and stops better than any I have seen. Leak down reflects the quality of the drive train . Stanek performed a no expense spared restoration and it is an unbelievable value as restoration cost ( invoices with car ) exceed 40K . I should keep it but I have 5 VW's and 4 356's I bought it spontaneously and have enjoyed it but it needs to be in the hands of someone who can drive it and show it more frequently, it needs nothing but a quick wash to show anywhere , the VW show or any cruise .
I am selling it for exactly what I paid for it , all I have done is paint the floorboards with POR 15 and change the oil . If you like VW's this is a great car ! |

Audi investing $30.3 billion through 2018 for product expansion
Sun, 29 Dec 2013How does Audi plan to reach two million units in annual sales and pay for the 11 new models it's adding to its lineup - an expansion that may include models named SQ2, Q9 and F-Tron? By increasing its investment to 22 billion euros ($30.3 billion US) between now and 2018. That figure represents an increase of about 500 million euros over the previously planned outlay, according to a report by Automotive News, and that could be due to Audi wishing to goad the momentum that pushed it to 1.5 million annual sales two years ahead of schedule.
It's also about staving off the challenges from BMW and Mercedes-Benz. Now that BMW has been able to turn some of its attention away from its "i" series of Megacity cars, it will reportedly spend more than planned in 2014 as it continues the rollout of ten all-new vehicles and 15 new-generation vehicles through the end of next year. Mercedes, having been dropped to third in the sales race, is preparing to add 13 new cars over the next six years.
Audi's money is going into technology, into product like the next-generation TT and the Q1 and production expansions and upgrades all over the world. The expenditure represents just under a fourth of Volkswagen's 84.2 billion-euro ($115.7 US) outlay devoted to taking the number-one global automaker title away from General Motors and Toyota by 2018.

New investor allows Suzuki to fend off VW
Tue, Aug 4 2015After years of legal wrangling, the long-soured partnership between Volkswagen and Suzuki looks finally to be coming out of arbitration, according to Bloomberg. As a sign of the Japanese brand's improved fortunes, hedge fund Third Point LLC recently bought an undisclosed stake in the company. The investor reported seeing a major opportunity in the successful Maruti Suzuki business in India. As an investment, the only major problem that Third Point found with Suzuki was its legal battle with VW. "The company's greatest asset is its low-cost manufacturing process for vehicles for the emerging market consumer," the fund said in a letter, according to Bloomberg. Third Point reportedly also wants a seat on Suzuki's board, despite being a minority shareholder. The alliance between Suzuki and VW goes back to late 2009. In the deal, the Japanese brand was meant to get access to cutting-edge tech, and the German firm got a helping hand towards better establishing itself in India and Southeast Asia. Things didn't go as planned, though. Less than two years later, Suzuki's boss publicly derided the deal. Eventually, the allegations started going back and forth, and the two have been working out a way to untangle practically ever since. Among the biggest issue has been how to get back the 19.9 percent stake that VW purchased. According to Bloomberg, the arbitration is now technically over. With the divorce nearly final, the two sides are just waiting on a decision on how to split things up. Suzuki may even just buy VW's stake to get the shares back.
