!!!!!!!!! FOR TEST DRIVING, PLEASE BRING YOUR DRIVER’S LICENSE. FOR MY OWN SECURITY, I WILL TAKE A PHOTO OF YOUR DL FOR RECORD !!!!!!!!!!!!!

!!!!!!!!! I WILL NOT SELL OR SHIP THIS VEHICLE TO AN OUT OF TOWN BUYER UNLESS BUYER IS WILLING TO PAY CASH UPFRONT FIRST !!!!!!!!!!!

!!!!!!!! IF YOU ARE AN OUT OF TOWN BUYER AND WILLING TO PAY UPFRONT, YOU WILL NEED TO OBTAIN YOUR OWN SHIPPING METHOD !!!!!!!!!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DEPOSIT IS NON-REFUNDABLE. SO PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE SERIOUS IN BUYING IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Never involved in any collision.

This vehicle has new tires and new rear rotors and pads put in recently. All maintenance is kept up. Brake fluid has been flushed on schedule, radiator coolant has been flushed also. So it is a READY-TO-GO vehicle.

Just to be upfront, there is a larger patch of scratches on the right of the rear bumper due to scraping against a protrusion of an underground gas pipe. However, because the scratches are light and the car is black, you won't see it unless you intentionally look into it. So to compensate for that, I have removed $500 from the price I desired which was $11000.00. So my asking price is $10500.

Oil changes have always been with full synthetic Mobil 1 oil since day 1 I own it. Average miles per year for this vehicle is only 10K. Its engine runs smoothly like the first day I bought it. It is equipped with CD changer, sunroof, leather seats. I added 18 inches custom VW Karthoum wheels. This really made the car stands out from the rest of the Jetta 2.5 SE. The tires only had 2000 miles on them. The side mirrors are equipped with signal lights. The interior has Gorilla all weather floor mats in the front. Driver's side has power seat. I am the 2nd owner.

VW has put a recall 7yr/100K manufacturer's warranty for AutoTrans Valve Body. I will include the VW paper work in this transaction.

There are some dents on doors, the right side rear fender, and there are scratches on the right side of the rear bumper. But the paint is shiny throughout the car since it is generally washed once a month. I prefer to sell to local Texas residents since I only accept full payment at the time of delivery. I bought this vehicle with cash. So I possess the title of this vehicle. The title will be handed over at the time when FULL PAYMENT is received. PLEASE DO NOT INQUIRE UNLESS YOU LIVE IN TEXAS OR READY TO PAY IN FULL IN ADVANCE. If payment is in cashier's check or personal check form, you will need to wait until the check is cleared by my bank before I submit the title to you. So serious buyers only!!!!

Regards,

VW Jetta GLI, Peugeot 505 are MotorWeek's 1986 Euro sport sedan alternatives

Tue, Dec 23 2014

Video reviews have become a mainstay of automotive journalism, but long before every publication turned on its video cameras and started uploading to YouTube, there was one program that was blazing the trail. That, of course, was MotorWeek, the television car program produced by Maryland Public Television and hosted by the inimitable John Davis. The program first aired back in 1981, and after more than three decades in the business, it's got a considerable archive of old episodes to unearth. In this latest gem recovered from the MotorWeek back catalog, the program pitted two European sports sedans against each other: a Volkswagen Jetta GLI and a Peugeot 505 Turbo. That's right: back in the 1980s, Peugeot was still competing in the US marketplace. The forced-induction 505 may not have been enough to keep the French automaker in American showrooms, but it was enough to stand up against the VW. Which one won MotorWeek's favor? You'll just have to watch the six-minute clip to find out. News Source: MotorWeek via YouTube Volkswagen Peugeot Economy Cars Performance Videos Sedan vw jetta gli

2014 Volkswagen GTI to start a new hot hatch era in Geneva

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

The upcoming Geneva Motor Show is going to be stocked with important new production models and sexy concept cars, but hot hatch enthusiasts will undoubtedly see it as the coming out party of the MkVII Volkswagen GTI. And while we've only got European specifications and pricing to go on for now, we can tell from the get-go that the new GTI will be a proper heir to VW's hot hatch legacy.
This seventh-generation GTI is powered by a turbocharged, direct-injection 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, which makes 220 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque in base form. For the first time ever, Volkswagen is also offering a performance pack for the GTI as well, which ups the horsepower to 230 (torque remains unchanged). With a slightly lower curb weight to push around - the new base car weighs 2,978 pounds versus 3,034 for the current three-door GTI - 0-62 miles per hour is now achieved in 6.5 seconds, and top speed is 153 mph. (Cars with the performance pack offer 0-62 mph in 6.4 seconds, and a 155-mph top speed.) Buyers my choose between a six-speed manual transmission or an optional six-speed DSG unit.
Visually, the new GTI has obviously adopted the slant-nosed looks of the MkVII Golf, though with plenty of added drama. The exterior is dominated by the 17-inch "Brooklyn" wheels wearing 225-section rubber, and the aggressive front fascia gets black honeycombed inserts in the upper and lower grille sections. At launch, Volkswagen will offer the GTI in three colors: the Pure White seen here, Tornado Red and Black. Tartan patterned seats are of course still an option for the interior, while the GTI-specific steering wheel and shift knob are standard.

Audi CEO says brand's EVs are almost as profitable as its other cars

Mon, Oct 4 2021

After, oh, a hundred years or so of building vehicles primarily powered by internal combustion engines, automakers around the world have been and still are pumping billions of dollars into the development of electric vehicle technology. Everything from platforms and batteries to motors and the software to control it all requires untold hours of development, and that takes time and money. Fortunately, it's not going to take long for that massive investment to start paying off, at least according to Audi CEO Markus Duesmann, who told Reuters in an interview that "The point where we earn as much money with electric cars as with combustion engine cars is now, or ... next year, 2023. They are very even now, the prices." As a brand, Audi contributed more than a quarter of overall profit for the massive Volkswagen Group, which has such powerhouse brands as Volkswagen and Porsche among others. Under the Audi umbrella are Lamborghini, Bentley and Ducati, and it seems those high-end branches aren't going anywhere, at least for now. "These brands ... are very valuable very profitable brands, where we can even expand the synergy level in the future," Duesmann said in the interview. "There are no plans whatsoever to get rid of them." Despite the overall profitability of the brand, the ongoing global chip crisis is causing headaches. "We had a very strong first half in 2021. We do expect a much weaker second half," said Duesmann, who added, "We really have trouble." In fact, so serious is the trouble that the brand is forced into "a day-to-day troubleshooting process" to limit the chip-shortage damage. The good news for the automaker is that Audi has been able to boost its profit margin from 8% prior to the pandemic in 2019 to 10.7% in the first half of 2021. The bad news is that various chip shortages aren't expected to get a whole lot better over the rest of the year. Related video:
