For sale: 2004 VW R32, and easily the nicest one for sale on ebay. 88,420 miles and is only driven once a week to keep the battery charged. Although the car is not stock, it features only minor modifications designed to enhance the driveability of the vehicle. This car has had three owners and was in Colorado until 86,4xx miles so it has no rust or corrosion anywhere on the vehicle. I have a relatively complete service history since new (have previous owner’s records) and all services have been performed on time. Both factory recalls (coil pack, sunroof drain) have been performed on this vehicle.

-          First owner owned vehicle up to 58200 miles and performed the following modifications:

o   K&N filter

o   ECS tuning stubby antenna (won’t get ripped off in car wash. Original included)

o   ECS tuning clear side markers

o   Hawk performance ceramic brake pads (OE stopping quality, no brake dust and very long life)

-          Second owner was a vehicle broker for his side business and owned the car for ~2000 miles

-          I purchased the vehicle at ~60,200 miles in 2011 and performed the following modifications:

o   Carbonio cold air intake with custom AEM Dri-flo filter to avoid MAF fouling (stock intake is included with vehicle)

o   APR tune with stock, 91, 93, and 100 octane tune with security lockout mode. I’ve seen over 30mpg highway average since installing the tune

o   SSR type-c wheels in 18x8.5 with 235/40/18 Dunlop ZII tires. These are a massive performance upgrade over stock, saving over 10 lbs/wheel despite the larger width.

o   Sport Edition F12 wheels in 17x7.5 with 225/45/17 Yokohama ice guard winter tires. The smaller diameter improved winter ride quality.

o   SEAT Cupra R front lip spoiler gives the car a sportier touch.

o   Replaced front bumper undertray panels- no more curb rash!

I have changed the Haldex differential fluid every 15000 miles or less, which is an extremely important maintenance item on these vehicles. In addition, transmission and differential fluid was changed at about 84000 miles with Schaffer gear oil by Metrick Methodz in Fort Collins, CO.

This car has been freshly detailed inside and out (will have ext. detail finished 3/9/14), which will leave it looking showroom-fresh aside from one 3” scuff in the clearcoat behind the driver’s side door. In addition, the cargo area carpet is wrinkled and the hatch door plastic has a few scratches in it. The seats show no signs of wear, even the massive driver’s side bolster- I have always taken great care getting in and out of this thing.

This car is an opportunity to buy an R32 that needs nothing, and if the current market is any indication, should prove to be a good investment that may even gain value with time.


Using the free listing to get my car out there, please contact me for the rest of the pictures that I have of the vehicle and its condition.

VW Golf GTD wagon makes us swoon ahead of Geneva reveal

Thu, Jan 29 2015

The European market is just crammed with power wagons we can't get our hands on: big ones like the Audi RS6 Avant and Jaguar XFR-S Sportbrake, but also little ones like the new Mercedes CLA45 AMG Shooting Brake, Skoda Octavia RS and Seat Leon ST Cupra. Now there'll be one more, and as you might have guessed, it comes from the Volkswagen Group. At the upcoming Geneva Motor Show, VW will present the new Golf GTD Variant. And if you're wondering what it's all about, it's all right there in the name: those three letters tell us it's a performance diesel, and the Variant name tells us it's a wagon (which we'd more readily recognize as the SportWagen on this side of the Atlantic). So there you have it: a performance-oriented diesel wagon, but not one we're never likely to see on American roads. If you ever did see one up close, though, you'd find a 2.0-liter turbodiesel four under the hood with 181 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque – enough to send this nimble oil tanker to 62 in 7.9 seconds, all the while returning over 53 miles per gallon (on the lenient European cycle, anyway). Along with the engine, VW has thrown in other GTD performance-minded bits, including a sports suspension and progressive steering. Visual telltales include unique front and rear bumpers, grilles, 17-inch alloys, blacked-out roof rails, smoked taillight lenses and an interior with plaid sports seats, stainless steel pedals... the works. European buyers will be able to enjoy all this and more while hauling all their stuff down the Autobahn, passing gas station after gas station in oil-burning bliss. World premiere of the new Golf GTD Variant - The perfect all-round package: sporty, economical, comfortable and spacious - Launch set for Geneva Motor Show Since 1982 Volkswagen's GTD logo has stood for Gran Turismo Diesel, with its promise of sporty yet economical motoring. Now for the first time, the GTD initials grace the Golf Variant, which like the Golf GTD, boasts the 184 PS (135 kW) TDI engine. The new Golf GTD Variant is set for its world premiere at the Geneva Motor Show, and is available to order as of now at a price of 31,975 euros. The Golf GTD Variant* is excellently placed to establish itself as an iconic long-distance cruiser.

Rimac inks deal to purchase 55% of Bugatti from VW Group

Mon, Jul 5 2021

ZAGREB, Croatia — Croatian electric supercar builder Rimac is taking over the iconic French manufacturer Bugatti in a deal that is reported to be worth millions of euros. Rimac said GermanyÂ’s Volkswagen Group, including the Porsche division — which owns a majority stake in Bugatti — plans to create a new joint venture. The new company will be called Bugatti-Rimac. Rimac Automobili announced Monday that it will be combining forces with Bugatti to “create a new automotive and technological powerhouse.” Rimac has progressed in 10 years from a one-man garage startup to a successful company that produces electric supercars. Mate Rimac, who founded the company in 2009, says the venture is an “exciting moment” and calls the combination of the companies “a perfect match for each other.” Porsche will own 45% of Bugatti-Rimac while Rimac Automobili will hold the remaining 55% stake, according to Croatian media reports. Financial details of the deal were not published. Bugattis will continue to be assembled in eastern France, where the company was established in 1909. The vehicles will use engines developed and made in Croatia. “In an industry evolving at ever-increasing speed, flexibility, innovation and sustainability remain at the very core of RimacÂ’s operations," the company said. “Uniting RimacÂ’s technical expertise and lean operations with BugattiÂ’s 110-year heritage of design and engineering prowess represents a fusion of leading automotive minds."

Volkswagen to add 50k jobs by 2018

Thu, 04 Apr 2013

Volkswagen still has its eyes set on becoming the top global automaker by 2018, and to get there, it's apparently going to need more boots on the ground. Automotive News Europe is reporting that VW is looking to increase its staff by 50,000 over the next five years - an increase of nine percent - which does not include an increase in its US dealer network.
According to the report, a majority of the growth will come from China where the automaker is also looking to double its production capacity in the same time frame. The Volkswagen Group is already expected to rival General Motors for the top sales spot in China this year, and such a rapid expansion in the region could make a good springboard for sales increases in other countries.
