Hello fellow VW enthusiast, meet my MK4 1999.5 fully custom turbo GTI VR6 which represents all the best of speed, style, and sound! When I say custom, I mean there is NOTHING stock about this car... $20,000 in the engine bay and drive train, $20,000 in custom paint and body work, $10,000 in the suspension, brakes, wheels, and tires, and $5,000 in the interior and sound system. This beast is ready to plaster you into the back of your seat and is currently tuned with full stand alone engine management to over 400 whp. The motor is fully built top-to-bottom and ready to make over 600 whp if you so desire. The car has been transformed into a real wide-body (not using a body kit) with all body moldings and door locks shaved and has a custom black and siLver two-tone paint job along with Audi door handles. In addition, it has huge Porsche brakes, a fully adjustable coil-over suspension, and staggered wheels and tires for an aggressive stance and fly-paper adhesion to the road. Add to that tastefully done black alcantra door panels, headliner, and pillars with a great sounding custom sound system! Everything has been done meticulously and to the highest standard. The car runs and handles great and will make a true enthusiast very happy. The chassis has 82,485 miles on it, but the engine build only has about 7,000 miles on it. The stand-alone engine management system is Lugtronics (Megasquirt) and gives you full control over tuning with my Dell laptop which is included with the car. You can easily monitor and adjust every parameter of fuel, ignition, etc. and document the results via the Mega Viewer program. You also have control over launch, rev limiter, NOS, or any other output. There is an RS-232 data cable inside the car which connects to the included Dell laptop and has all the tuning and documentation software on it. Just plug it in and start tuning with this amazing software! This car is absolutely incredible, but since I am very particular, I think there a few minor things that you should know about: the gap between the front bumper and fenders is not perfect and there are some minor stone chips (the car has been driven and is not a trailer queen after all). In addition, there are two pieces of trim missing on either side of the radio/climate control in the dash and the back window tint has a bubble in it. Other than that the interior and exterior are immaculate! Also, the back seats have been removed but are included with the sale of the car. Well it's time for the CHA-CHING portion of the listing... Here are all the parts and modifications on this one-of-a-kind vehicle: ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION: 2.8 Schimmel stage 2 CRATE long block, ported and polished head 8.5:1 JE pistons, Schimmel Performance rods New lifters, retainers, timing chain, guides, and tensioner All 3 VF polyurethane and billet engine/tranny motor mounts Kinetic exhaust manifold Schimmel Performance short runner intake manifold Garrett GT 35/40r turbocharger (1.06 ar) TiAL 38mm wastegate Custom front mount intercooler and piping 42 lb./hr. fuel injectors Lugtronics (Megasquirt) stand alone engine management system with Dell laptop included Greddy Type-S blow-off valve Rebuilt transmission with Peloquin differential Greddy Profec B Spec I electronic boost controller GHL 3" Stainless steel exhaust with hi-flow catalytic converter Custom 3" heat wrapped downpipe Optima Red Top battery New O2 sensors SPEC Stage 3 clutch and flywheel Schimmel Performance Stage 2.9 DSS axles INTERIOR: Garrett boost gauge with New South single pod New OEM black carpet Black alcantra headliner, door panels, and pillars Euro head light switch Rear seat delete (Stock back seats included with sale of the car) Pioneer CD head unit with accessible USB jack for digital music play back Infinity front door and rear speakers Infinity capacitors and crossovers Custom flush mounted subwoofer enclosure with 10" JBL sub Custom side mounted JBL amplifiers (2) EXTERIOR (all body work professionally done): Custom two-tone black and silver paint job Custom boser grafted onto hood Euro Gear R32 front bumper Euro Gear R32 rear bumper Wide body pulled/extended fenders (done perfectly) Shaved hatch Shaved antenna Shaved all body moldings Entire body smoothed Audi door handles Hella smoked tail lights In.Pro projector angel eye head lights Smoked marker lights 35% window tint BRAKES AND SUSPENSION: ECS Stage II v2 Porsche 13" front big brake kit Rear cross-drilled and slotted rotors Weitec Coilovers New upper strut mounts and bushings WHEELS: 19" TSW Kyalami staggered wheels (8.5" front / 10" rear) Toyo Proxes tires H&R wheel spacers So, basically all you need to do is put gas in it, step on the pedal, and try not to destroy the car or kill yourself! hahaha This beautiful thing is wicked fast and a blast to drive and is worth every penny! Please email me with questions and do not send me ridiculous low-ball offers. Thank you!

Don't buy that crossover! Buy a cladded wagon instead!

Fri, Nov 10 2017

If you're looking to buy a car soon, and you're like most Americans, there's a strong chance you're considering buying a crossover SUV. That's what people want nowadays. People like the tough, tall exterior that suggests adventure and preparedness, they like the high seating position, they like the all wheel drive many have and they like the practicality. Because of this, crossovers have rapidly supplanted typical cars such as sedans, wagons, and more as the most popular vehicles in the country. But they're compromised, too. They're often heavy, thirsty, and expensive compared with more conventional cars. The good news is, there's an alternative, a happy medium between the straight crossover and the traditional car. They're lifted wagons, and they're the best crossover SUVs around. And for those who may not know what we're talking about, we're talking about cars and wagons that have been given a suspension lift for more ground clearance and a higher ride height, and often have all wheel drive standard or optional. They also usually have chunky plastic body cladding to make them look tough and durable. Examples include the Subaru Crosstrek, Audi A4 Allroad, Buick Regal TourX, and Volkswagen Golf Alltrack, among others. Because of the suspension and body modifications, these vehicles fit the trendy crossover mold quite well. And in the case of long-running nameplates such as the Subaru Outback and Volvo Cross Country models, they even have some heritage as outdoorsy machines. They also provide the higher driving position that crossover buyers love. And in some cases, such as with the Golf Alltrack, we've learned they offer better ride quality than their road-oriented siblings. View 9 Photos So these tall wagons offer the key things crossover buyers want, but what makes them better than traditional crossovers is that they have the advantages of the cars they're based on. For instance, the aforementioned Golf Alltrack still drives mostly like a Golf, which is to say, it's nimble, feels peppy, and is easy to maneuver because of its relatively small size. We can't really say the same for the Tiguan, which feels generally more sluggish and uninteresting than the Alltrack. And we mention Volkswagen's compact crossover because it starts at nearly the same price as the Alltrack. Some of the difference in giddy-up can be explained by weight. Normal crossovers can be fairly portly, while these lifted wagons are notably lighter.

Poor headlights cause 40 cars to miss IIHS Top Safety Pick rating

Mon, Aug 6 2018

Over the past few months, we've noticed a number of cars and SUVs that have come incredibly close to earning one of the IIHS's highest accolades, the Top Safety Pick rating. They have great crash test scores and solid automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning systems. What trips them up is headlights. That got us wondering, how many vehicles are there that are coming up short because they don't have headlights that meet the organization's criteria for an "Acceptable" or "Good" rating. This is a revision made after 2017, a year in which headlights weren't factored in for this specific award. This is also why why some vehicles, such as the Ford F-150, might have had the award last year, but have lost it for this year. We reached out to someone at IIHS to find out. He responded with the following car models. Depending on how you count, a whopping 40 models crash well enough to receive the rating, but don't get it because their headlights are either "Poor" or "Marginal." We say depending on how you count because the IIHS actual counts truck body styles differently, and the Infiniti Q70 is a special case. Apparently the version of the Q70 that has good headlights doesn't have adequate forward collision prevention technology. And the one that has good forward collision tech doesn't have good enough headlights. We've provided the entire list of vehicles below in alphabetical order. Interestingly, it seems the Volkswagen Group is having the most difficulty providing good headlights with its otherwise safe cars. It had the most models on the list at 9 split between Audi and Volkswagen. GM is next in line with 7 models. It is worth noting again that though these vehicles have subpar headlights and don't quite earn Top Safety Pick awards, that doesn't mean they're unsafe. They all score well enough in crash testing and forward collision prevention that they would get the coveted award if the lights were better.
