Up for sale is a 1972 Volkswagen Type 3 (III) Squareback. This car is super clean and drives as a California cruiser should!
History: The car recently came to Atlanta, Georgia from California. The car is absolutely RUST FREE and the body is super straight. All receipts of the car from the past 3 owners are included and list extensive history which dates back to 1988. Body: The car was recently painted on the exterior (pictures to prove) with original Belgium Beige and a Standox Clear Coat. The Standox clear coat comes with a 30 year no fade warranty (from a renowned paint shop in Georgia, D&I Body Shop). Unfortunately, there is 1 dime size chip under the passenger pop out window and small scratch near the passenger window, however only visible to the super OCD. However, willing to get the car touched up. The floor pans and the rest of the body show that the car has been in a very dry environment for its entire life. New: All new glass seals, chrome, paint job, rebuilt transmission. The Good : the entire interior is super clean and nearly new. The seats are easy to adjust, the panels are in great condition, and the car handles as it shouldThis cruiser is completely stock - aside from the fuel injection engine being converted to Dual Carbs. It gives the extra power which allows you to shift up while driving up hill and comfortably drive 80 mph on the highway (the speedometer actually read 90!!! but def 10 mph off). Additionally, the VW drove from Atlanta,GA to Chattanooga,TN for the Bug-a-Puluza show and had no issues and handled the highway great. The Bad: I haven't had a chance to mess with the lights, but the turning signals don't work, although they light up when the lights are on. The odometer doesn't work, but the rest of the gauges work fine. Willing to answer any additional questions or email any additional photos upon request. Don't let such a rust free and straight Squareback like this pass you by. There is no headache left with this volkswagen, just pure fun! |

VW Golf TDI circles US on less than $300 of diesel
Wed, Jul 8 2015$294.98. That's how much it cost the Volkswagen team to drive across all 48 contiguous states in the union. Which is pretty impressive, but it's only part of the story. In an effort to demonstrate just how economical a conventional diesel engine can be, VW sent a team out from its US headquarters in Herndon, VA, in a Golf TDI. Their mission was to visit all the Lower 48 on as little fuel as possible. Over the course of 16 days, they traveled 8,233.5 miles, burned through 101.43 gallons of fuel, and marked a frankly astonishing average of 81.17 miles per gallon. As a result, the team made up of hypermiling automotive journalist Wayne Gerdes and electronics engineer Bob Winger Ā picked up a new Guinness World Record for the lowest fuel consumption achieved in a non-hybrid car across the 48 contiguous states. The previous record, it's worth noting, had also been set by VW and Gerdes, who piloted a 2013 Passat TDI at just a hair under 80 mpg. But here's the kicker: in raising the diesel economy bar even higher, the team also beat the record for the same achievement in a hybrid vehicle by over six mpg. So the next time someone tries to tell you a hybrid is more efficient than a diesel (at least on the highway), you can point them towards this record.

Ā Volkswagen of America, Inc., is pleased to announce today that the 2015 Golf TDIĀ® Clean Diesel, part of the family of vehicles that won the 2015 North American Car of the Year, has set a new GUINNESS WORLD RECORDSĀ® achievement for the "lowest fuel consumptionĀ48 U.S. contiguous States for a non-hybrid car" with a remarkable 81.17 mpg. Traveling 8,233.5 miles around America in 16 days on $294.98 of ShellĀ® Diesel fuel, the Golf beat the previous mark of 77.99 mpg by more than 3 mpg, and also beat the hybrid vehicle record of 74.34 mpg by more than 6 mpg. "Covering 8,233.5 miles on just 101.43 gallons of Clean Diesel fuel is a remarkable accomplishment, and solid proof of the efficiency and fuel economy of Volkswagen's TDIĀ® Clean Diesel vehicles," said Michael Horn, President and CEO, Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
Volkswagen New Midsize Coupe Concept is an aspirational Jetta
Mon, 21 Apr 2014Meet the Volkswagen baby CC. Okay, that's not really it's name (VW calls it the New Midsize Coupe Concept), but this sleek, four-door coupe draws more than a little inspiration from the CC while riding on VW's MQB platform.
It's a looker, we think, and is an eye-pleasing departure from the bland styling of the current Jetta. The sleeker front end is complemented by a wider body overall (it's wider than a Passat), while the more sporting roofline and the sharp rear fascia gives the New Midsize Coupe a decidedly sporting character. LED head- and taillights add a bit more personality to this already stylish design.
Thanks to its 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder, it should get along rather sportingly, as well. The run to 62 miles per hour takes just 6.5 seconds thanks to the 217 horsepower on offer. A seven-speed dual-clutch automatic is also fitted, and contributes to an estimated 37 miles per gallon.
VW consumer site finally gets configurator tool back
Tue, Mar 10 2015The traditional vehicle configurator is back on the Volkswagen US consumer website, and it works very well. The company now lets visitors create a virtual model to their own specs and then search for a match among dealer inventories, as is the norm from most automakers. Last summer, Volkswagen tried to break the mold with its thoroughly redesigned consumer website in the US. It sported a slick design but made the highly controversial change of removing the configurator. Instead, visitors were narrowing their selection from a searchable database of models already at dealers. While the streamlined approach immediately told users if their desired car was available, the system also largely hid the prices for options and packages. The newly tweaked design retains the previous tablet-oriented layout, but after clicking a model, the site immediately offers "Build Yours." From there, visitors select a trim, and then the vehicle pops up with options to choose things like colors and packages. The whole layout is clean, features large buttons and works quickly. At the summary page, there's still the opportunity to search for the user's choice in dealer inventories. This is definitely a major improvement.
