  We understand that buying a vehicle online can sometimes leave you un-easy. We are aware that there are other dealers online that do not fully describe the vehicles listed. They might leave important information out, or not have a thorough description of that item.

  Our goal is simple. We aim to be honest and fair with all of our deals. Word of mouth and return business is something we take very serious! We achieve this by providing you with all of the information YOU need to make a comfortable decision, and hopefully proceeding to your investment, a vehicle! We strive for A+ satisfaction. We do not want to waste anyone’s time, and definitely don’t want to mislead you. This is why we inform you of EVERYTHING we know, and provide you with detailed descriptions and conditions of the item for sale.

YOUR HIGHEST BID WILL GET YOU THE VEHICLE! If you wanted a Passat wagon for very cheap, now is your opportunity. This 2001 Volkswagen Passat GLS V6 is now available for NO RESERVE. The wagon is perfect for anyone that needs cargo room, passenger room, and wants good fuel economy. You don’t have to sacrifice one for the other anymore! Please read the full description.

INTERIOR: The cloth seats are in good shape with no rips or tares. The sunroof works perfectly and the heat blows hot. The heated seats are very effective and feel great. The radio is showing signs of no power so it will not come on. The driver master switch is missing; a new or used one will plug right up and work just fine, the other windows work. There are no offensive odors coming from the interior. The unique wood grain is still in great shape. The fabric on the door panels is not adhering on the door properly. A simple labor charge by a professional can glue this right back together. The original window sticker is still with the vehicle along with the owner’s manual. This is usually a good sign.

EXTERIOR: The body is straight and there isn’t any rotting from any rust. There are some close ups on the minor imperfections below. Other than a few bumps and dings, the body is still presentable. The tires are in good shape with a lot of tread left, and I haven’t noticed any slow leaks. These will not need replacing anytime soon.

MOTOR/HANDLING: I drove this wagon for 30 minutes without any issues. The Passat was difficult to jump start after is sat for a couple weeks. After the car warmed up, it stayed idling with no issues. It was hard to see but there was some very light smoke coming from the engine bay. This didn’t have a strong odor, but it went away after some time and then came back. When the car is warmed up it ceases to stall, rpms are steady, and it starts accepting a charge from the alternator. Putting it into gear has a slight jerk to it sometimes and the acceleration is not all that responsive at very low RPM’s. After about 2k rpm’s the car acts normal. The acceleration is fine, the transmission shifts very smooth and when it should. The brakes are quiet and are very effective. The powered steering is smooth and quiet, same with the suspension.

Currently the brake warning light, abs, and check engine light are on. The brake light will flash. We do not know what the issues are and we are willing to let the car go to anyone who has the patience or time. This is not far from being a great car, a little bit of time and this could be a great deal to the right person. If you are interested in purchasing it, feel free to message me so we can create a deal. Please remember, I am not a mechanic. Thank you for looking and happy bidding!

Volkswagen shows off performance-ish Passat concept

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

As part of its 2013 Detroit Auto Show debut package, Volkswagen has rolled out a sportier version of the Passat sedan, though it's strictly conceptual for now. A small dose of go-fast visuals have been added to the handsome Volkswagen, including 19-inch wheels, carbon-capped mirrors, an advanced front lighting system, LED taillamps and dual exhaust. Some carbon bits and upgraded leather are found inside the cabin, as well.
But the real performance chops come in the form of a 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that sends 250 horsepower to the Passat's front wheels via a six-speed automatic transmission. That's a good boost in power over the 170 hp of the base 2.5-liter inline-five, but not quite as potent as the 3.6-liter VR6. A lowered sport suspension and revised electronic steering are also on hand, making things slightly more involving out on the road... we assume.
It's not quite the performance concept we were hoping for, but a more enthusiastic Passat isn't necessarily a bad thing. Scroll down for the press release.

Former Porsche boss Wiedeking won't face criminal charges over VW bid

Mon, 28 Apr 2014

Hedge fund managers have been suing Porsche for years now, alleging that the car company lied about its intentions during its failed attempt to take over Volkswagen, a gambit that caused them billion in losses. Over the same period, authorities in Stuttgart built a criminal case against former CEO Wendelin Wiedeking (above, left) and Chief Financial Officer Holger Härter (right), filing charges in December 2012. When those fund plaintiffs lost their most recent court case, one of the dimming lights in the dark and receding tunnel was that the criminal investigation might unearth more evidence about Porsche's actions that could help the plaintiffs in pending litigation.
Bloomberg reports that another light has gone out, though, with a Stuttgart court dismissing the market manipulation case before going to trial because, as a court spokesperson said, "there wasn't enough evidence backing up the charges." When prosecutors get the files back from the court, they have a week to decide to refile, but unless they've been sandbagging evidence that could bolster the case, the only lights at the end of the tunnel will be those welcoming Wiedeking and Härter back to the world of legally unencumbered men.

1000-hp Mk1 VW Golf is terrifyingly cool

Tue, 04 Jun 2013

There are plenty of things to love about the Mk1 Volkswgen Golf. The machine's horsepower isn't one of them. From the factory, the little hatch cranked a breathy 112 horsepower from the most robust form of its 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine. Boba motoring, however, has taken that figure and multiplied it by a factor of nearly 10. If 1,000 horsepower sounds terrifying in a machine with a wheelbase of just 94.5 inches, it should. A massive Garrett GTX4202R turbo force-feeds the little mill through a tweaked 16-valve KR head. The crew calls the beast the 16Vampir, and we think that's fitting.
Of course, we'd wager you quit reading right about the time you set your eyes on that headline. Those of you who've stuck around this long can point yourselves below to see the maniacal creation in action. You won't be disappointed.
