Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, United States
|
This is a 1969 VW Karmann Ghia. This is a really nice car that was customized into a roadster. The engine is a 1915cc with dual Weber 40 IDF carburetors from CB Performance. Current mileage is 3,502. Being a full time open top, I only drove it in perfect sunny weather!! The transmission is a new 4 speed freeway flyer. A new set of floor pans, front steering parts and shocks all the way around were installed by Dynabug in Tulsa, OK. The 4 wheel disc brakes are crossed drilled and are also from CB Performance. The front end has dropped spindles with stock front beam. Most of the sheet metal is powder coated for better cooling. Wheels are Empi Spoke Chrome plated sitting on 195/550R15 Nitto tires. The Stereo system is an Alpine 205 DVD Player, that plays DVD's even while in drive. Rear subwoofers(2) are JL Audio 12w3v3-4 running off a Kicker 1000w Ampliflier. The front component speakers are Focal 165KF 6.5" with built in crossover running off a Kicker 350w 4 channel Amp along with Focal 130CA for the mids. This system really hits hard, has deep bass, clear sound, without all that rattling noise!! Dynamat sound dampening material is installed under the upholstery. A Compu-Fire Dual Cool 90 Amp Alternator installed to support all this power along with a Red Top Battery. The Seats are from SCAT and are the Low Pro's with a matching rear seat with extra padding. Interior accessories are from Sewfine using Earth Tweed. A custom roll bar for added safety. The dash is loaded with Carbon Fiber Autometer Gauges which includes the Speedo, Fuel, Oil Psi, Oil Temp & Volt Meter. A Tachometer is housed in the engine area for setting the idle. The body was removed from the pan, the roof was cutoff, sandblasted, shaved door handles & gas cap, reinforced convertible pillars, custom dash holes, custom wiring harness, paint and body work all professionally done by Vintage Customs in Broken Arrow, OK. This is really a fun, fast car to drive and gets soooooooo many looks & compliments!!!! I really don't want to get rid of it but sometimes a man has to depart with his Toys :( Click/Copy Link for Youtube Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OT8mOErFOF8 |

2013 Volkswagen Jetta Hybrid
Tue, 12 Feb 2013More Fun Than A Prius, Less Sensible Than A TDI
Let's have some fun, and do some math. We're talking pretty rudimentary stuff, multiplication and division, to figure out if the upcoming Volkswagen Jetta Hybrid can make a baseline case for itself against two very strong competitors in this segment. The competitors in question, at least for now, are two more Jettas: the diesel-drinking TDI and the fit-for-the-masses SE with VW's long-serving 2.5-liter engine.
To keep the equations clean and simple (hey, we're writers), we'll calculate based on the most flattering EPA miles per gallon stat from highway driving for all cars, assume a healthy 20,000 miles driven per year, and factor in today's average cost for the respective fuels these three require: diesel (TDI), regular (SE) and premium (Hybrid). We'll also start with the base prices for all models.
Volkswagen Golf, Ford F-150 named 2015 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year
Mon, Jan 12 2015Congratulations, Volkswagen Golf/GTI and Ford F-150. You've just been named the 2015 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year, kicking off the first press day of the Detroit Auto Show. The Golf faced some seriously stiff competition from its runners-up, the Ford Mustang and Hyundai Genesis. But the Golf has been a highly awarded vehicle since its launch, including recently being named Motor Trend's Car of the Year. As for the Truck/Utility award, it wasn't immediately clear that the aluminum-bodied Ford F-150 would win the North American honor, topping the Chevrolet Colorado and Lincoln MKC. The Chevy, after all, has been widely praised since arriving this fall, including taking home MT's Truck of the Year award. In 2014, Chevrolet had a sweep of the NACTOY awards, with the Corvette Stingray and Silverado taking top honors. Here's a look at the 2015 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year voting breakdown. As you can see, it wasn't exactly neck and neck. Car of the Year Volkswagen Golf/GTI – 256 points Ford Mustang – 204 points Hyundai Genesis – 110 points Truck/Utility of the Year Ford F-150 – 297 points Chevrolet Colorado – 205 points Lincoln MKC – 68 points The winners were determined by the votes of 57 North American jurors who work in all forms of media – magazine, newspaper, television, online and radio, and their ballots were tabulated in secret by accounting firm Deloitte & Touche. Autoblog editors Sharon Carty and Chris Paukert are members of the North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year jury.

VW and partner SAIC start building $2.5B Audi plant in China
Fri, Oct 19 2018BEIJING — Volkswagen AG's China joint venture with SAIC Motor Corp has started building a $2.5 billion new energy vehicle (NEV) plant in Shanghai, which will make VW's luxury Audi brand cars, a possible first for the venture. The new plant is a key step for Audi to diversify production of its cars in the world's largest car market from its long-standing local partner, China FAW Group Corp. This shift has been delayed amid resistance from local dealers. SAIC Volkswagen said the new plant would have an annual capacity to make 300,000 cars and begin production from 2020. Audi sold 481,387 vehicles in China from January to September this year. The announcement comes the same week Tesla secured a Shanghai location for a Gigafactory battery plant to serve the Chinese market. Audi unveiled the plan to bolster ties with SAIC in late 2016. Earlier this year, the Germany luxury carmaker bought a 1 percent stake in the SAIC Volkswagen venture, paving the way for the joint venture to produce and sell Audi cars. Volkswagen currently gets a larger proportion of the proceeds from the 50-50 tie-up with SAIC than from its 40 percent stake in the venture with FAW. SAIC Volkswagen said in a statement on Friday the plant would cost 17 billion yuan ($2.5 billion) and would make VW and Skoda models as well as Audi cars. It will help VW tap China's fast-growing market for NEVs, a category comprising electric battery cars and plug-in electric hybrid vehicles.
