1998 Vw Vr6 New Beetle on 2040-cars
Rapid City, South Dakota, United States
|
This is a 1998 New Beetle with 218xxx miles on the body. The motor is a 12v 2.8L MKIV VR6 and is from a 2000 Jetta along with the 5-speed transmission and was professionally swapped into it by NGP Racing. I have been daily driving this car for years and have not had any problems with it. The car was recently repainted. The body is excellent except for one scuff on the front drivers side fender from a hit and run but no body damage was done. It runs great and starts everytime. The transmission shifts as it should and does not grind or crunch. The interior is also very nice with leather seats from a Turbo S Beetle, a custom painted Zolotone headliner, steering wheel from a GLI Jetta, and AWE pedals. This is a very torquey and powerful car and it also drives like a go-kart. I have put a lot of time and money into this car and do not want to sell it but I have to pay off my new car. It has 18" BBS RC's with 2 new front Eagle F1 tires. This car is very reliable and I would not hesitate to take this thing anywhere.
Here's what all is done on the car: *FK Streetline Coilovers *Stage 2 Daily DXD Clutch and Pressure plate *9 LB Flywheel *Polyurethane Dogbone and Transmission Mount Inserts *Front to back and side to side Short Throw shifter *K&N Intake *Fully ported and Polished Exhaust with Cat Delete with Magnaflow Catback *New Beetle Turbo S Seats *GLI Steering Wheel *AWE Pedals *European Tail lights *EBC Slotted front rotors with EBC red stuff pads *Clear side markers *Water Temperature Gauge *Zolotone Headliner (Like textured paint) *Color matched Interior *A/C Delete I'm sure there is more that I cannot think of. If you have any more questions feel free to ask. |

Volkswagen Group, BMW Z4 top Total Value Awards by Strategic Vision
Tue, 11 Dec 2012It was just nine months ago that Strategic Vision announced its 2011 Total Value Awards, but you don't have to wait until next year for the 2012 awards. The Volkswagen Group keeps its lead as the number one brand, with seven products taking top category spots: Golf, Jetta Wagon, CC, Eos and Audi A3 Wagon, Q5 and Q7. Strategic Vision says "true innovation" - "rich and impactful, intuitive, motivational, in-depth and is able to trigger description by the user in great specificity" - is the open secret of the brands with the strongest showings. Results are culled from 77,153 owners covering more than 350 new cars bought between September of 2011 and 2012 ranked in the Total Value Index (TVI).
Other notable winners are Hyundai-Kia following VW in the brand category and having the Hyundai Elantra and Kia Sorento among category winners, the BMW Z4 taking the premium roadster category and the highest overall score of any vehicle, the Chevrolet Volt continuing to gather silverware in the Special Category, nabbing the second-highest score of all and representative of "nearly perfect innovation," and Chrysler and Dodge being most improved.
Check out the press release below for your day's dose of jargon and all the winners.
VW agrees to halt next-gen rally car development to help others stay in WRC
Sat, 22 Jun 2013Volkswagen has petitioned the FIA to hold on to the current specifications for cars in the World Rally Championship, according to Autosport.com. The move is evidently an effort to keep as many competitors in the sport as possible, despite the fact that using the current spec racers may actually hurt Volkswagen's chances at winning. The three factory teams currently competing in the WRC are at the end of a three-year homologation cycle at the end of 2013, and new cars are expected to bow next year. But developing new racers could cost as much as $4.7 million.
That price tag would put M-Sport (which fields Ford racers) out of the WRC game for 2014 and would put Citroën participation in question as well. VW has already begun work on the next iteration of its Polo R WRC, and the hatch has nabbed four wins in six rounds this season. Now it appears that car won't bow until at least 2015. The FIA has officially agreed to freeze homologation of new WRC cars until the end of next season.
VW reveals Outback-rivaling Golf Alltrack ahead of Paris
Wed, 24 Sep 2014The Volkswagen Passat Alltrack is getting a baby brother at this year's 2014 Paris Motor Show in the form of a new Golf Alltrack. Like its larger sibling, the little wagon is supposed to offer light-duty off-road driving ability combined with a more rugged look to show it off.
To give the Golf Alltrack that soft-road ability, VW is outfitting the wagon with its latest 4Motion all-wheel drive system from Haldex. The setup can decouple power from the rear-axle when not needed to save fuel. To further improve traction, the Alltrack gets VW's electronic differential lock, and the car can individually brake its inside wheel during hard cornering for better handling.
Volkswagen also wants the Alltrack to be able to visually show that it can handle getting away from the pavement, even though it starts life as a standard Golf wagon. That means jacking up the suspension an extra 0.75 inches and adding black moldings all the way around the car. There are also redesigned bumpers for the front and rear and silver underbody protection, plus new accents like anodized roof rails and silver mirror caps. The interior is essentially unchanged from the wagon, except for altered trim and Alltrack badges.
