Hello, I have a very nice 2006 VW convertible for sale. The car has been babyed and only driven in warm weather and garaged the rest of the time. We have decided to sell it as we hardly ever drive it and it needs to be driven . Its such a cool fun car. My wife and I bought this in 2010 from a woman in Albuquerque NM and I drove it back to CO. The day I picked it up I had not really had any experience with this type of car but I can assure you when I drove back the 700mi to my home I learned a ton and I was very impressed overall. This thing will fly right along and has the wide profile tires and rims and will corner surprisingly well. I had a couple of old vws in the day but believe me this aint your grandmas vw. Since we have owned it we have taken very good care of it and have done all the required maintenance at the dealer near us. I have replace the driver side window regulator, has a brand new battery and the tires still have good tread on them. The car runs great and all the electronics work as they should. This bug has an amazing sound system with speakers on the dash, in the doors and in the back seat area. Its called Monsoon and is a very high quality system. If your not aware it also has the sport shifting system which lets you shift this like a standard type transmission so if you are in the mountains you can down shift and save the wear and tear on the brakes. Its really a cool feature in mountain or street driving and works well. The other item that blows me away is the color of this particular car . Apparently vw used many shades of blue for this vehicle but I believe mine is the best of them all . It has a slight metalflake look to it and is exquisite when you look close at it . I looked hard to find the convertible with the right look and this has the right look with dark blue and tan . The tan also is cooler than black in the sun . The tan roof shows more than the black roof but it shows way classier I think. Never had heated seats and that is another great feature. The outside mirrors have lights in them for the turn signals also very cool. This car is just cool and fun and gives very good fuel economy. If someone were to buy this and take care of it I can see this becoming a classic down the road. It just has a vibe. Please email with any questions and Ill try to get back quickly. We hope this goes to someone who really appreciates the car and I look forward to that person driving away into the sun with a big grin on their face and the wind in their hair. Thanks

Volkswagen could outsell GM in China for the first time in nine years
Fri, 27 Dec 2013As of the end of November, Volkswagen had sold 70,000 more cars than General Motors in China in 2013, making it appear inevitable that VW will outsell GM there. The feat would return the German brand to the top of chart in China for the first time in nine years, but even the second-place getter won't be complaining too loudly: both automakers sold more than three million vehicles in a market pegged to hit 16 million sales this year.
Volkswagen said it could have sold more cars if it had had more production capacity in China. The arrival of a new-to-China Audi A4, a China-built A3 sedan, the VW Bora and Skoda Octavia, as well as an $18.2-billion-euro investment in the country to construct new factories, means VW should see its numbers grow in 2014. GM's lineup is expanding next year, too, adding four Chevrolet nameplates and two vehicles to its Baojun brand as it tries to get to five million in sales by 2015.
Among other automakers, Ford benefited from good product and woes for Japanese automakers over a territorial dispute with China, outselling Toyota by almost 32,000 units through the end of November. The Ford Focus is China's best-selling vehicle so far this year.
Recharge Wrap-up: Volkswagen Sustainability Council meets, Zee.Aero flying car spotted?
Wed, Oct 26 2016The Volkswagen Sustainability Council held its inaugural meeting in Berlin. Made up of nine international experts, the council will advise VW and take action on its own as it sees fit. In the meeting, the council decided that in 2017 it will focus on tackling CO2 emissions, planning for post-2025 regulations, and assisting the automaker's "transformation from car manufacturer to mobility services provider," as VW Chairman Matthias Muller puts it. Volkswagen has approved 20 million euros (about $21.75 million) in funding for Sustainability Council projects for its first two years. "We are fully aware of the large transformation that lays ahead Volkswagen Group," says George Kell, Sustainability Council Chair and Founding Director of UN Global Compact. "We were invited to be part of this journey and are very much looking forward on being actively involved in the development of this journey." Read more at Green Car Congress, or from Volkswagen. Honda plans to ramp up its share of hybrids sold in the US. In response to increasingly strict emissions standards, the company wants electrified vehicles (including hybrid, plug-in hybrid, battery electric, and fuel cell vehicles) to make up two-thirds of Honda and Acura sales in US by 2030. Some analysts are skeptical, though. Christopher Richter of CLSA Asia-Pacific Markets says that dealers are telling Honda they don't want hybrids. "Unless there's a change in what dealers want, I don't think they are going to get there that fast," Richter says. Read more at Automotive News. Witnesses report spotting what could possibly be the Zee.Aero electric aircraft at Hollister Airport in California. Zee.Aero, a startup funded by Google cofounder Larry Page, has a hangar at that airport, where a photo was taken of the aircraft in question. The craft is said to be capable of vertical takeoff and landing and can fit in a one-car garage, earning it the "flying car" moniker. Eyewitness Saul Gomez described the aircraft as "quiet" and "hovering 20, 25 feet off the ground." Read more at Electrek, and watch the interview at Mercury News.

VW to unveil diesel-electric Twin-Up! in Tokyo
Fri, 08 Nov 2013We've received multiple reports that Volkswagen will be bringing a diesel-electric concept to the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show, set to take place later this month. The car, called the Twin-Up!, is based on the Up! city car, with some sources claiming this is a thinly veiled concept that will eventually enter production.
According to Automotive News Europe, the Twin-Up! will reportedly return 214 miles per gallon on the US cycle by combining an 800-cc, two-cylinder diesel and an electric motor. It will also boast plug-in capabilities, and will be able to cover 30 miles on electric power alone.
Autocar has a more complete picture of the Twin-Up!'s powertrain, though, claiming it's a modified version of the hybrid system found in the Volkswagen XL1. The Twin-Up! will get a more potent, 47-horsepower electric motor to the XL1's 27-hp unit, but will retain that car's 47-hp turbodiesel. The battery pack will also grow, from 5.5 kilowatt hours to 8.6 kWh. Both of these increases are necessary due to the increased weight of the Twin-Up! - it's some 900 pounds heavier than an XL1.
