We understand that buying a vehicle online can sometimes leave you un-easy. We are aware that there are other dealers online that do not fully describe the vehicles listed. They might leave important information out, or not have a thorough description of that item.

Our goal is simple. Word of mouth and return business is something we take very serious! We achieve this by providing you with all of the information YOU need to make a comfortable decision, and hopefully proceeding to your investment, a vehicle! We strive for A+ satisfaction. We do not want to waste anyone’s time, and definitely don’t want to mislead you. This is why we inform you of EVERYTHING we know, and provide you with detailed descriptions and conditions of the item for sale.


EQUIPPED WITH A VIPER ALARM AND REMOTE START!

This beautiful 2004 Volkswagen New Beetle GL is now available for you to buy! Don’t miss your chance to own a good looking, solid Beetle convertible. I personally drove this vehicle for over an hour just to make sure the motor and transmission is solid with no issues.

INTERIOR: The remote start works at just the press of a button. The original key fob also works with the alarm remote. The black leather interior is all in great shape. The manual top is very easy to put up and down. The aftermarket Kenwood radio sounds great and there is an auxiliary port so you can listen to any device. The heat works great and the a/c is cold. ALL OF THE WINDOWS WORK, and so does everything else! There are no indications of any leaks and there are no odors in this stylish Beetle!

EXTERIOR: The body is in good shape. It looks as if the car was garage kept. The top has no signs of dry rot and the seams are all in great shape. There are a few things that are hard to notice, there is a flaw on the rear driver side bumper. The clear coat in that area has some issues as if it was bumped up against. The front bumper has minor issues on the very bottom, probably caused from scraping. This can be fixed professionally for a few hundred dollars if you wanted it perfect. Other than a few flaws that are hard to notice, this is a great vehicle. The tires have plenty of tread left on them.

MOTOR/HANDLING: The Beetle starts right up and idles with no issues or sounds. The car goes right into gear with no jerking. The acceleration is very responsive and the brakes work great at any speed with no wobble or vibration. The transmission shifts through every gear with no hesitation, every time. I drove over an hour just to make sure there was nothing wrong. The downshifting is also smooth and responsive. The suspension feels great and it does a great job absorbing all the imperfections and making a quiet ride. The powered steering makes tight turns very easy and it is also smooth. There isn’t any pinging when making very tight turns. This vehicle feels very reliable and I would drive it anywhere, any distance. The airbag light is the only issue. Volkswagen is notorious for this. Almost every time the light is on because of a bad connection with a sensor, and usually the sensor is bad. The sensor is under $100 and the labor is very cheap. We can have it looked into and fixed for you prior to delivery, if you were interested. This is one of the few solid Volkswagen Beetles for sale.

This generation of the Volkswagen Beetle is notorious for having issues with the transmission and windows not working properly etc. I wanted to be sure this one was defect free! A car is as good as its owner. The previous owner obviously cared for this Beetle and maintained it very well. There are receipts/records in the glove box. The radio, alarm, and receipts are all good signs of pride in the vehicle, and that shows that maintenance was performed regularly.


 NADA.com appraises this vehicle for $6,625 at suggested retail. The reserve is set nowhere near that. If you are interested in this vehicle and would like to ‘BUY IT NOW’ please feel free to contact me. Thank you so much for looking and good luck with the bidding. -Daryl

Which car should win 2015 World Green Car of the Year?

Wed, Apr 1 2015

There were three finalists for the World Green Car of the Year announced about a month ago at the Geneva Motor Show: the BMW i8, the Mercedes-Benz S 500 Plug-In Hybrid and the Volkswagen Golf GTE. With the New York Auto Show upon us and the winner scheduled to be announced tomorrow, we thought it's high time to ask our readers which one should win. There were seven other vehicles named to the finalists list: the Hyundai x35/Tucson Fuel Cell, the Volvo XC90 T8 Twin Engine, the Audi A3 Sportback E-Tron, the BMW X5 xDrive40e, the Kia Soul EV, the Nissan e-NV200 and the Opel Adam 1.0 Direct Injection Turbo ecoFLEX Start. Would you have named one of these to the top three list instead? POLL 14386429 Green BMW Mercedes-Benz Volkswagen 2015 ny auto show world green car of the year vw golf gte

Peugeot will prove it doesn't offer cheater diesels

Thu, Oct 29 2015

Our diesels are clean, really. That's the message from French automaker PSA/Peugeot-Citroen as it plans to go on the offensive in response to Volkswagen's diesel-emissions scandal. PSA will go out of its way to prove its diesels are as clean as advertised. The company is looking at disclosing "real-world" fuel-economy statistics as soon as next spring and will use an independent entity to vet the numbers, Automotive News Europe says, citing comments that PSA/Peugeot-Citroen financial chief Jean-Baptiste de Chatillon made to reporters this week. Such efforts may be vital, since roughly two-thirds of the vehicles Peugeot-Citroen sells in Europe are powered by a diesel engine. Last month, VW admitted that as many as 11 million of its diesel-powered vehicles were programmed with software designed to cheat emissions-testing systems. The news shook up the industry, especially companies that sell a good chunk of diesels. The EU itself may start instituting "real world" fuel-economy and emissions testing as soon as 2017. French regulators have said they may eliminate diesel-fuel subsidies that currently make diesel fuel cheaper to customers than gas. That adjustment may occur as soon as next year, since it's been pushed up in response to the VW scandal. Peugeot-Citron continues to reiterate that it has never installed software that was designed to cheat emissions-testing systems. Additionally, the automaker was more than a decade ahead of European Union mandates for engine components designed to cut soot emissions, so the company is hoping its track record makes a difference. It wants to be perfectly clear about that.

Porsche tops JD Power APEAL study for 12th time

Wed, Jul 27 2016

JD Power's 2016 Automotive Performance, Execution, and Layout (APEAL) study hasn't changed much this time around with Porsche coming in at No.1 for the 12th consecutive year, while BMW was close behind in second. Jaguar and Mercedes-Benz tied for third with Land Rover, Lexus, and Lincoln tied for No.5. The APEAL Study, according to JD Power, measures owners' level of excitement and emotional attachment across 77 parameters. Brands and cars are rated on a 1,000-point scale. The study found that new cars with modern safety features including low speed collision avoidance and blind spot monitoring have higher APEAL scores than vehicles without the features. The overall industry score increased from 798 to 801, which JD Power claims was helped by the launch of a variety of new vehicles. This year, 22 out of 30 new or redesigned cars received a higher score than the vehicle's respective segment average. Porsche is once again at the top of the list as the automaker's score increased by three points to 877. BMW outscored Jaguar to take second place with a score of 859, while the British automaker dropped three points from last year with 852 points. Volkswagen overtook Mini to become the top-ranked non-premium brand with 809 points, while the latter automaker trailed behind by one point. At the end of the scale, Smart came in at the very bottom for the second year in a row with a score of 745 points, which represents an increase of 62 points over last year. Fiat's score increased by six points to 755, but still confined the automaker to second-to-worst place for a consecutive year. Mitsubishi's score increased to 770, up from 755, to become the fourth-worst brand, while Jeep fell to third-worst with a decrease in seven points to 756. General Motors received six segment-level awards, followed by Hyundai with five, and BMW and VW earning four apiece. Surprise segment victories include the Chevrolet Camaro, which outscored the Dodge Challenger, and the Lexus RC which ranked above the BMW 4 and 3 Series. For more information on how the automakers ranked, check out the official release on the 2016 APEAL Study below or visit JD Power's website to analyze the graphs.
