2004.5 Volkswagen Jetta Gli on 2040-cars
Collierville, Tennessee, United States
|
Up for auction is my immaculate, adult-driven, nicely-modded, never-raced, never-wrecked 2004.5 Jetta GLI. I bought this car in 2008 from a dealership in Atlanta with a little over 30,000 old-lady-driven miles. Since then, it's been my daily driver for my roughly 10 mile commute to and from work, and taken on a number of regional road trips (which highway miles account for a decent percentage of the overall mileage, now a shade over 107,000).
Incredibly clean, inside and out. I detail my cars myself on a monthly basis with professional products (orbital waxer, clay barred annually, etc.). This car has almost always been garaged or under a carport (at work and home). No dings, dents, or scratches of any significance. Religiously maintained at all regular intervals by a VW specialty shop in Memphis, TN (Wolfsburg Auto). In anticipation of selling, I had my shop complete a comprehensive inspection, and repair or replace anything and everything of any material concern. They replaced the cam tensioner gasket due to a minor leak, the thermostat, and a faulty sensor. The water pump and timing belt have also been replaced in the past, as these items commonly fail at a predictable mileage on these cars. Coil packs have all been recently replaced as well. There are currently zero mechanical, electrical, or other issues, except as noted below. I have complete documentation of every repair, oil change, tire purchase, etc. from the date I purchased the car. Performance and aesthetic enhancements as follows: APR Stage II ECU AEM cold air intake with recently refreshed K&N filter Turbo-Back Milltek exhaust APR Diverter Valve Clear side lamps New rotors and pads all around (slotted and drilled in the rear) 40-50% life left on Hankook Ventus V12 tires Replaced VW center caps for BBS carbon-fiber-look center caps Thule bike rack with 2 Echeleon carriers (retail $1400), which I can include or not as desired, at no extra cost. Flaws: Former owner had no love for the front valence, so there are some scrapes and scratches in the valence, along with normal rock chips in the front bumper. A $300 re-spray of the bumper and valence would make this car look showroom new. A few virtually imperceptible scratches on the rear deck lid from the rear glass being busted by an errant golf ball. Otherwise, literally not a scratch or ding on the car anywhere. The clear coat on a couple of the wheels has naturally faded in spots over time, and the prior owner also added some curb rash. Nothing major. On the interior, the head unit (Alpine) has been glitchy lately, and probably should be replaced soon. It works just fine, but there's a loose connection somewhere that results in the LED illumination cutting in and out. The driver's side floor mat has a hole just near the gas pedal, which is purely a function of wear, and could easily be replaced. Otherwise, the interior looks as though no one has ever sat in any of the seats besides the driver's seat. No pets, no babies, no smoking. The keyless entry is occasionally slightly glitchy. It will occasionally fail to lock the rear driver's side door, but the alarm always works. I am a BMW and VW enthusiast, and I have studied the market for these cars. I can say with confidence that this is the cleanest, most pampered GLI available on the market, as most have been abused, raced, not adult-driven, modified poorly, and generally not taken care of. Potential buyers are welcome to speak to the shop that has maintained this car. I am also willing to entertain an escrow mechanism for out-of-state buyers who may need to have the car shipped, but would like to have it inspected at a shop of their choice. Happy to work with shipping companies, or arrange for local inspection or pickup. Please feel free to contact me with any questions, or requests for additional pictures. I have many, and will take as many more as are requested. Payment upon close of auction must be received three (3) business days thereafter. Cashier's check or wire transfer only. Title will be signed over immediately upon receipt of payment, whether in-state or out-of-state. Thanks for looking. |

Volkswagen and Funny or Die take humorous spin in 2015 Golf
Wed, 10 Sep 2014Volkswagen is partnering with Target and Funny or Die in a bizarre ad for the latest Golf starring comedian Rob Huebel, probably best known for his work on Childrens Hospital on Adult Swim.
The commercial is titled The Way Too Helpful Neighbor and stars Huebel as the eponymous neighbor. The challenge is for Huebel to help improve his buddy's apartment before the guy meets his girlfriend's parents for the first time. The obvious way to do that is to slide a new Golf through an actual Target in Texas, while simultaneously showcasing the store's goods and the car's features.
The commercial is airing online now and on TBS during breaks in Conan O'Brien's show, with sneak peaks during other programs on the network. Auto advertising is becoming pretty normal for Funny or Die at this point, though, with the site previously partnering with Fiat for several videos. Check out the ad above and see if you think it works. Scroll down for VW's announcement.
VW Chattanooga plant very close to UAW representation
Tue, 11 Nov 2014After months of fighting from both sides, it looks like the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga, TN, might unionize under the United Auto Workers after all. According to a letter acquired by The Associated Press, VW and the UAW reportedly struck a deal last spring where the union agreed to stop its challenge of the organization vote with the National Labor Relations Board to help clear the way for the CrossBlue to be produced in Tennessee. In exchange, the automaker would recognize the UAW at the plant. Leaders of the Local 42 at the facility reportedly signed the letter.
It seems that such an agreement would clear the way for the factory to unionize after months of dispute. According to The Detroit News, under Tennessee law, workers aren't required to join the organization. Although, that might not be a problem. As of a few months ago, Local 42 already claimed to have signed around 700 of the plant's roughly 1,500 workers.
Controversy has constantly swirled around the possible unionization at the Chattanooga plant. The UAW held its official decision in February and lost 712 to 626. However, there were allegations of intense political pressure to make sure the ballot failed. A later report also found that VW was offered $300 million in incentives well before the vote to make sure things progressed to the "satisfaction of the State of Tennessee," but the deal was later retracted. In July, the UAW opened Local 42 on the campus in hopes of signing up a majority of the workforce by volunteering to be a part of it.
