Volkswagen Beetle
This very nice
1956 Beetle is in excellent running and driving condition. An older restoration
that shows very well, this is a wonderful example of a Series 1. One of the
things that I love about this car is that everything works as it should. Lights, wipers, horn, radio, heat, defrost, reserve
lever. It’s all there and it all works. I also love the
fact that it isn’t over done, there’s a bit of patina on the Steering wheel,
gearshift and emergency brake levers for instance. The interior is very nice,
with very little wear and the exterior paint is nearly flawless with the
biggest issue being a crack in the paint on the rear deck lid. I didn’t notice
it for an entire day after we had the car, so it certainly doesn’t stand out. The
undercarriage is in great shape. The pan was powder coated when it was restored
to a nice standard. Other than a small
amount of surface rust on a few of the non-structural parts, it is rust free. The car starts, runs, shifts, steers and stops very
well and is an absolute pleasure to drive. I’ve put over 100 miles on this little Beetle and it
has never missed a beat. The older gentleman that we purchased the car from
stated that he believed the motor to be original to the car. I also had a
friend who is fairly knowledgeable in early VW’s look at it. He thought that it
was more than likely the original engine. Of course we have no was to be sure, but the
speedometer reading of 75k is completely believable given the overall condition
of the car, especially parts that weren’t replaced when it was restored. Overall the 1953-57 Beetles are considered some of the
best built. With many hand crafted items, such as the rear deck lid and front
emblem, these are special cars.
If you have an older VW, Porsche, or special classic you would like to locate a new home for,
we specialize in marketing these cars. As you can see from our presentation we
do a proper job and have many satisfied clients.
Please remember that if you bid and win the auction, you will be
expected to complete the transaction. Recently we have had a few cars sell and
then not have the individual follow through. We put a ton of time and effort
into the cars and the presentation, please respect that and follow through
should you bid. Inspections are welcome, but must take place prior to the end of
auction. Feel free to call or email with any questions, 503-475-8078 Josh,
or 503-819-9007 Matt. We are happy to help you arrange shipping anywhere in the world.
Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!!

2013 Volkswagen GTI Driver's Edition brings exclusivity to the granddaddy of hot hatches
Thu, 07 Feb 2013The Volkswagen booth at this year's Chicago Auto Show was filled with various special edition models of the Beetle and GTI. In addition to the GTI Wolfsburg Edition, the Volkswagen GTI Driver's Edition helps to wrap up the 2013 model year as VW readies the all-new MkVII Golf next year.
Only 3,000 of the GTI Driver's Edition models will be produced in four-door body style only, and the available color palette will be limited to just Candy White, Carbon Steel Gray and Deep Black. The package will come standard with the GTI's Sunroof and Navigation package, and it will add unique features such as the 18-inch "Laguna" wheels, a golf-ball shift knob, partial leather seats and red-stitching on the carpeted floor mats. Buyers of this package will also get a certificate of authenticity and some GTI swag such as a hat, keychain and parking sign.
Starting price for the 2013 Volkswagen GTI Driver's Edition is $29,695 with the six-speed manual and $30,795 if you choose the DSG - both prices exclude destination charges.
Recharge Wrap-up: Volkswagen Sustainability Council meets, Zee.Aero flying car spotted?
Wed, Oct 26 2016The Volkswagen Sustainability Council held its inaugural meeting in Berlin. Made up of nine international experts, the council will advise VW and take action on its own as it sees fit. In the meeting, the council decided that in 2017 it will focus on tackling CO2 emissions, planning for post-2025 regulations, and assisting the automaker's "transformation from car manufacturer to mobility services provider," as VW Chairman Matthias Muller puts it. Volkswagen has approved 20 million euros (about $21.75 million) in funding for Sustainability Council projects for its first two years. "We are fully aware of the large transformation that lays ahead Volkswagen Group," says George Kell, Sustainability Council Chair and Founding Director of UN Global Compact. "We were invited to be part of this journey and are very much looking forward on being actively involved in the development of this journey." Read more at Green Car Congress, or from Volkswagen. Honda plans to ramp up its share of hybrids sold in the US. In response to increasingly strict emissions standards, the company wants electrified vehicles (including hybrid, plug-in hybrid, battery electric, and fuel cell vehicles) to make up two-thirds of Honda and Acura sales in US by 2030. Some analysts are skeptical, though. Christopher Richter of CLSA Asia-Pacific Markets says that dealers are telling Honda they don't want hybrids. "Unless there's a change in what dealers want, I don't think they are going to get there that fast," Richter says. Read more at Automotive News. Witnesses report spotting what could possibly be the Zee.Aero electric aircraft at Hollister Airport in California. Zee.Aero, a startup funded by Google cofounder Larry Page, has a hangar at that airport, where a photo was taken of the aircraft in question. The craft is said to be capable of vertical takeoff and landing and can fit in a one-car garage, earning it the "flying car" moniker. Eyewitness Saul Gomez described the aircraft as "quiet" and "hovering 20, 25 feet off the ground." Read more at Electrek, and watch the interview at Mercury News.

Volkswagen Passat gets Wolfsburg Edition, priced from $23,495*
Tue, 23 Apr 2013Volkswagen has just announced a new Passat Wolfsburg Edition, which slots between the base S and mid-grade SE trims in terms of content and price. The automaker has not released any official photos of the car as of this writing (aside from the badge shot you see here, of course), but the Wolfsburg Passat will be visually set apart from the rest by a unique set of 16-inch alloy wheels.
The big host of upgrades for the Wolfsburg Edition are found inside, where buyers will enjoy standard amenities like leatherette seats (with bun-warmers on the front chairs), a power driver's seat, satellite radio and a media interface with iPod connectivity. Of course, this comes on top of the already standard Passat features like Bluetooth and auto on/off headlamps. The Wolfsburg Passat will only be available with the 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine and a six-speed automatic transmission.
Look for the 2013 Wolfsburg Edition Passat to hit dealerships in the very near future, priced from $23,495, *not including $795 for destination. Have a look below for Volkswagen's official press blast.
