  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 unveils sportier Passat Performance Concept ahead of Detroit debut

Fri, 11 Jan 2013

Ahead of its official unveiling at next week's Detroit Auto Show, Volkswagen has released some preliminary details and images of its Passat Performance Concept - a car that, as its name suggests, adds a little more spice to the automaker's midsize sedan formula. VW makes no mention of any production intent for this road-ready-looking sedan, simply stating that the Performance Concept is a way to "explore this practical four-door's sportier side."
It certainly doesn't look too sporty, the only visual upgrades being larger 19-inch wheels, dual exhaust, bi-xenon headlamps with VW's Advanced Front Lighting system, LED taillmaps and carbon-look mirror caps. Inside, there are carbon interior accents and two-tone leather upholstery. But no matter, the real upgrades for this mightier Passat are found below the sheetmetal.
Powering the Performance Concept is a 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, churning out 250 horsepower and sending its grunt to the ground via a six-speed automatic transmission. For reference, that's 80 more horsepower than the Passat's base 2.5-liter inline-five, but 20 horsepower less than the potent 3.6-liter VR6. As for other performance upgrades, Volkswagen has fitted the car with a lowered sport suspension and revamped electronic steering, which should indeed add a bit more dynamic feedback to the already nice-driving sedan.

Volkswagen CrossBlue Coupe is a green fun-machine we want to drive

Fri, 19 Apr 2013

Think back to January's Detroit Auto Show. Those of you that are fans of the Volkswagen brand, impressed with green technology or simply fall into the "diesel geek" category, will almost certainly remember VW's CrossBlue concept with its diesel/electric hybrid powertrain, seating for seven, and somewhat awkward crossover styling. It was an impressive piece of future tech, to be sure, though it left something to be desired in the, well, desirability department.
Here in Shanghai, VW has brought along a CrossBlue Coupe concept that would seem to include most of the goodness of the original, but flavored with more sport and style this time around.
The CrossBlue Coupe makes use of the same electric drive components as the larger three-row concept: two electric motors (front and rear) powered by a 9.8-kWh lithium-ion battery. However, where the original concept made use of a TDI four-cylinder, the Coupe substitutes a 295-horsepower, direct-injection, gasoline-burning V6.

Last VW bus ever made arrives at final destination

Fri, 31 Jan 2014

A Brazilian politician tried to save it, unsuccessfully, so the final Last Edition Volkswagen Type 2 Kombi was produced on December 20, 2013 and now resides in a vintage museum at Volkswagen's Commercial Vehicles HQ in Hanover, Germany.
The Volkswagen Microbus was built for 56 years, starting in September 1957. Brazil was the last country still assembling it, but new safety regulations in the country requiring airbags and ABS on all cars spelled the end. When that politician introduced a bill that would pardon only the 'Bus from a death sentence, it couldn't garner the required number of votes for passage. The South American country takes the Kombi production title, though, with 1.5 million of the 3.5 million total made in the home of Copacabana beach and the girl from Ipanema.
The VW Bus is dead. Now perhaps we can turn our attentions to the still-not-totally-settled matter of the Bulli...
