 I recently bought this car for my girlfriend but she refuses to learn how to drive stick.  It is a meticulously maintained TDI.  you would think this was a 50k mile car. paint is almost flawless except for a few small stone chips.  Fully loaded GLS with heated seats, sunroof, power locks, power windows, optional three point steering wheel, and factory vw mudflaps, all three factory keys.  Winning bidder will not be disappointed!!!!! EBAY NOT RECOGNIZING VIN SINCE 1999.5 MODEL YEAR BUT CARFAX DOES.  HAVE CARFAX REPORT.  VIN: 3VWSF29MXX1072952.

Interior: 7/10The interior is in near perfect shape only showing minimal wear on the arm rest and drivers door handle.  the seats are all in ok shape, just some minimal wear/leather cracks on driver side bolster but no tears.  The rear seats show little wear on the back side but otherwise are perfect.   the radio has seen better days and could use being replaced. it looses memory and you occasionally have to enter the code.  I was planning on replacing this when i bought it for her but since she wont attempt to drive stick now i am not. the driver side armrest handle isn't perfect and shows minimal wear but everything won it works.  The center armrest has your typical mk4 VW broken latch for the center console. the headliner shows minimal wear but has very little sagging(rare).  the heated seats work great and get warm quick.  surprisingly the glove box latch is intact and works great(typically broken on mk4 vw's).  the three spoke steering wheel in in really good shape.  previous owner must have has a steering wheel cover on it most of its life.          

Exterior:  8/10 The exterior is in amazing shape.  Its super clean cosmic green metalic. The car was in a minor accident last year with previous owner and airbags did not deploy just replaced the fender and bumper(if winning bidder isn't happy with body work they are not obligated to buy.  They did an amazing job i couldn't even tell).  It has a few small stone chips on the front and a small scuff on the front bumper which is minimal.  one of the wheels has a center cap which is slightly different shade then the others.  previous owner lost a center cap and replaced it(passengerside rear in photo).  The tires will pass inspection but probably only have 10k miles left.  It has the optional VW mudflaps which is super rare.  i was really impressed with this.  The headlights have minimal fading.  The mirrors have paint fade and i believe one has been replaced.  The sunroof works great!  The car has no rust and was meticulously washed and maintained.

Mechanically: Mechanically this car is amazing.  Maintenance records for everything from oil changes to tire rotations to timing belt history to state inspections.  Anything you wanna know just look and its in there.  even window sticker.  The last timing belt was done at 330k and has had recent ac condenser, alternator, clutch, oil cooler gasket, fuel filter and battery.  It has your typical 99 VW MK4 sloppy shifter and delay crank start. it also has a small exhaust leak which is barely noticeable.  

Any questions feel free to ask.  Thanks For looking.

Autoweek dubs GMC Canyon, VW GTI its 2015 'Best of the Best'

Wed, Dec 17 2014

For kids around the globe, tis the season for Santa, reindeer and presents. For the automotive industry, the last quarter of each year is reserved for awards, whether they come from Motor Trend, Car and Driver, Automobile, or yes, Autoblog. The latest to get released comes from our friends at Autoweek. The magazine has echoed other outlets, naming a Volkswagen hatchback and a small pickup from General Motors as its Best of the Best. Unlike Motor Trend, which handed out its golden calipers to the Chevrolet Colorado and Volkswagen Golf range, Autoweek doled out its awards to the Colorado's twin, the GMC Canyon, while singling out the hottest version of the Golf, the GTI. "This is the best hot-hatch on the American market – and it may be the best car you can buy for less than $30K," one AW staffer said in the publication's article on the feature. Other staffers praised the absolute value provided by the GTI and the overall fun factor. The Canyon, meanwhile, was saluted for being "the perfect size," not to mention its excellent build quality, feature-rich cabin and overall practicality. "It's truly a truck in the most honest sense of the word," Autoweek wrote of the Canyon. Scroll down for the full press release on the announcement from Autoweek, which includes comments from both Volkswagen and GMC. And then head over and read AW's full feature on the awards. Autoweek names Best of the Best/Car and Truck for 2015 Volkswagen Golf GTI and GMC Canyon signal a strong year for design, performance and value DETROIT, Dec. 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Autoweek named the Volkswagen Golf GTI as its Best of the Best/Car for 2015, beating a group of finalists that includes the Alfa Romeo 4C, Ford Mustang and Mercedes-Benz C-class; and the GMC Canyon as its Best of the Best/Truck for 2015, besting the likes of the Chevrolet Colorado, Lincoln MKC and Porsche Macan. Autoweek evaluates every new or significantly updated model throughout the year and begins to identify the standouts. Performance, economy, fit and finish, design, value, significance to the auto industry and personal taste all combine to define the Best of the Best. Four cars and four trucks make the grade, and Autoweek editors put them through rigorous road-handling tests at Michigan International Speedway in Brooklyn, Mich. This is where a vehicle transcends the numbers and shows if design, performance and pure driving passion meld into an Autoweek Best of the Best pick.

VW still set on Phaeton redux despite cost-cutting drive and losing $32k per car

Wed, Jan 28 2015

While critically well regarded, the Volkswagen Phaeton has proven to be a vehicle largely unloved by luxury buyers around the world. Despite this, it refuses to die. While VW's luxury sedan hasn't been sold in the US since 2006 due to low sales here, it has soldiered on in Europe with occasional updates. As the model's long lifespan has been winding down, VW has decided to keep pushing the Phaeton into a new generation, despite in-house alternatives like the Audi A8 and Bentley Continental Flying Spur. The move might not make much business sense, but Volkswagen executives are determined to make the Phaeton work. According to market analysts speaking to Reuters, developing the next-gen luxury sedan on the MLB platform could cost as much as 650 million euros ($737 million), despite relying on the same underpinnings in the A8. It's not like the Phaeton is leading the luxury sedan sales ranks, either. Reuters notes VW produced just 5,812 of them in 2013 (the most current year with data), and from 2002 to 2012, the automaker reportedly lost 28,000 euros ($32,000) on each example sold. Conversely, Mercedes-Benz sold 103,737 units of its new S-Class in 2014, an astonishing 82.2 percent jump over the previous year. The decision to keep the Phaeton going doesn't seem to square with the VW brand's cost-cutting strategy. Boss Martin Winterkorn announced last year a plan to save 5 billion euros ($5.7 billion) annually in the coming years. That plan reportedly also includes killing off less profitable models. Apparently, VW can't just rip off the band-aid and get rid of the Phaeton. Even some VW bosses seem somewhat perplexed at the sedan's business case. When Reuters asked the company's US boss Michael Horn about selling the Phaeton here, he said. "That's a dangerous question. It's an image bearer with no relevance for volume." The next-gen Phaeton is scheduled to go on sale in Europe in 2017 or 2018, according to Reuters, which is about a year later than previous rumors. A US launch will reportedly follow in 2018 or 2019 with the plug-in hybrid and potentially even diesel versions on offer. A starting price around $70,000 is estimated.

German judge 'inclined to dismiss' hedge fund lawsuit against Porsche

Fri, Feb 27 2015

Last year, around two dozen investors, including hedge funds, leveled a 1.4 billion euro ($1.95 billion at the time) lawsuit against Porsche in connection with the automaker's attempted takeover of Volkswagen in 2008. The Stuttgart Regional Court dismissed the case. Around 19 of those plaintiffs are heading back to court to appeal the ruling and still hope to get 1.2 billion euros ($1.4 billion). However, according to one German judge, the chances for success aren't any better this time around. "On balance it's our view that we consider the lawsuit, or the appeal, to be unpromising for several reasons," Gerhard Ruf, a judge in Stuttgart, said to Reuters. "We are inclined to dismiss the case." The court's ruling on the appeal will be announced on March 26. The investors' case hinges on Porsche's strategy surrounding the botched takeover. The sports car maker said that it wasn't trying to control VW, when in fact it was. These hedge funds had bet against Volkswagen stock, but the share price surged when Porsche's plan inevitably came to light. Investors have sued the sports car company multiple times since then in attempts to recoup billions of dollars. However, none of the lawsuits have been successful, whether attempted in the US or Germany. Former Porsche CEO Wendelin Wiedeking and and CFO Holger Haerter might still stand trial for the alleged stock manipulation, though.
