2011 Volkswagen Golf Tdi Hatchback 4-door, Malone Tune Pd Exhaust Ecs Suspension on 2040-cars
Rockford, Michigan, United States

2011 VW Golf TDI 4dr 6sp MT Tornado Red price is set at market value for the base car plus half of the parts only cost. If you want the fastest TDI out there with better handling than a GTI, this is it. 60+ MPG Highway, 40+ around town. I have several cars, and this has been one of my favorites: unstoppable torque, great handling, and the best gas mileage of anything I have ever owned. But its time to make room. There isn’t anything I would change about this car. You can spend $ 35k+ to build your own, or take this one home for a lot less. The new common rail 2.0 is a great engine, but the stock intake and exhaust chokes these vehicles robbing them of power and efficiency. So the week after I took delivery of it, I worked with Performance Diesel and Malone tuning to install the best breathing and best programmed system available. Malone’s website lists 184 bhp and 333 lb-ft torque, and I don’t doubt it for a second. In fact, the numbers for this car are probably better because of the custom stainless exhaust. The fuel economy is better than stock by over 20% city and highway. The sound is perfect. Not loud, but throaty when full throttle. And you can hear the turbo whistle a little at idle. Its been a great daily driver and family trip car, no complaints whatsoever. The tucked away hitch works great for a bicycle rack. The other great thing about this car is the suspension and handling. It has a full KWV2 coil-over and sway bar setup from ECS Tuning, so it handles better than any GTI could ever dream of – and gets 2X the gas mileage. The height shown in the pictures is at the lowest setting possible, it can be adjusted about 3” higher if you want, and the shocks are adjustable too. I have like new Goodyear Ultra Grip Ice snow tires mounted on 16” black steelies if you want them for $ 450. All stock parts are included if you want to return the car to its original configuration. Waxed and in a heated garage with owners manual, service history, both keys, etc. Clear title. Dealer serviced with synthetic oil only, suspension adjustment and alignment by independent VW shop. Standard factory items: Satellite radio, Bluetooth, heated seats, sunroof, rubber TDI mats, etc. Additions

VW builds 250,000th Passat in Chattanooga in just two years
Sun, 26 May 2013It hasn't been without incident or union organizing drive, but the Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga, TN has built its 250,000 Passat in just a little over two years. The Night Blue Passat TDI with black leather has come just two years and five weeks after the first customer car came off the line on April 18, 2011.
In the last year the plant operated at the 150,000-unit capacity that it was intended for, but the downturn in Passat sales and subsequent worker layoffs mean it will be a challenge to repeat the feat. The plant does have the world's largest solar park, though, and you can't take that away from them.
You'll find the official hand-clapping in the press release below.
Auto execs surveyed say VW, BMW most likely to grow
Thu, 17 Jan 2013A new survey of top global automotive executives indicates both Volkswagen and BMW are the most likely to grow their market share over the next five years.
Tax advisory firm KPMG LLP has released its 14th annual Global Automotive Executive Survey, which includes responses from over 200 executives. A total of 81 percent of respondents said they expect to see Volkswagen make gains, compared to 70 percent last year. BMW, meanwhile, saw 70 percent of those surveyed say they believe the company will increase its market share. That's a jump of 7 percentage points over last year. This is the first time in the history of the survey that BMW has claimed the second-place spot.
Meanwhile, Hyundai has seen its perceived market share potential slacken for the third year in a row. Around 61 percent of those surveyed predicted gains for Hyundai, down from 63 in 2012. Toyota also has a surprising year, but for just the opposite reason. While the manufacturer had slipped in ranking since 2011, it enjoyed the largest increase of any company in the 2013 survey, jumping to 68 percent from 44 percent last year.
European jury picks finalists for 2015 Car of the Year
Tue, Dec 16 2014There are countless Car of the Year awards handed out each year, and naturally, Europe has its own way of doing things. Every year, a panel of jurists representing seven publications in seven different languages and seven different countries get together to name their joint Car of the Year. The panel released a list of 32 candidates back in July, and it has now whittled that list down to seven nominees. The list consists of the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer, the Citroen C4 Cactus (shown), the Ford Mondeo, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the Nissan Qashqai, the Renault Twingo and the Volkswagen Passat. Of those seven, only two are available in the US – those being the Mondeo (sold Stateside as the Fusion) and the C-Class. The Passat is an entirely different model in North America, the Qashqai isn't offered here, Citroen and Renault don't even participate in our market and the BMW 2 Series is represented here only by the completely different coupe and convertible. Expect the one and only recipient of the 2015 Car of the Year award to be announced at the Geneva Motor Show this coming March, and while you're waiting, you can place your guesses for the eventual winner in Comments.
