1962 Vw Bug ~ Came From Factory White W/ Full Ragtop Like Herbie The Love Bug! on 2040-cars
Platte City, Missouri, United States
1962 VW Beetle with factory ragtop sunroof, just like Herbie the lovebug. Complete car not missing anything (except passanger side running board), parked since the 1990s, ready to be restored! This bug was painted yellow sometime back in the 70s, but was originally white with grey inside, also just like Herbie... Would make an EXCELLENT Herbie the love bug clone, or a beautiful sunroof bug done up stock. I have the title, back in 1992 it was signed by seller in both buyer and seller spot (it was an old lady) and that's how I got it/ that's how its being sold. Most states offer an affidavit to allow you to still use this title as-is. All the sunroof parts are there, with the exception of the weathered canvas, it was in poor shape so it was just removed. This bug has rust, pans will need replaced, as well as other places on the car (little bug is 52 years old now, and needs restored) ~ Very cool project car! lots of people have bugs, not many people have a factory full sunroof ragtop bug! Bug was parked running back in 1998, has not been started since. The factory shifter was upgraded to a HURST shifter, and car has had one repaint, other than that, its an original car. These are hard to find, this car is worthy of a full restoration, do it how you want it done, and paint it how you want it painted. This car will look beautiful when done!!! WOULD MAKE A PERFECT HERBIE CLONE!!!

Europeans get first crack at new Golf Variant wagon
Mon, 04 Mar 2013Just last week, when we brought you news of a new Volkswagen Golf variant out and testing in Europe, we had no idea we were being so literal with out description. For it seems that VW has every intention of calling its new Golf wagon, making its Geneva debut, the "Golf Variant."
Odd/interesting sobriquets taken as read then, there's a lot to like about this new small wagon from VW. The Variant will shed some 232 pounds in this generation, and will come to market with two efficient TDI engines. Volkswagen isn't giving us displacement figures for either yet, but we're told the diesels will come with outputs of 110 and 150 horsepower. The 110-hp TDI BlueMotion Varient will be good for a whopping 71.3 miles per gallon on the European cycle, when mated to the six-speed manual transmission.
The German automaker has brought along an all-wheel-drive 4Motion version of the Gold Variant to bow in Geneva, as well, and a natural gas-burning TGI BlueMotion is said to be "in the pipeline."
Weekly Recap: Volkswagen moves forward under Muller
Sat, Sep 26 2015Most stunning was the speed of it all. On the morning of September 18, Volkswagen AG stood atop the automotive world. It was profitable and sold more cars than Toyota and General Motors, its two main rivals for global supremacy. By nightfall, the company would be embroiled in scandal. Revelations the German auto giant cheated on diesel emissions testing in the United States reverberated from Washington to Wolfsburg, Germany. What started out as a problem with 482,000 VWs and Audis in the US exploded into an international scandal. Millions of vehicles have the rigged software, meaning VW broke environmental rules as its cars spewed pollutants all over the world. The fallout began immediately. Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn – one of the most respected and capable executives in the business – apologized on Sunday and Tuesday. On Wednesday he resigned. As the week progressed, the company's stock took a beating and credit agencies threatened to drop their ratings. VW dealers and owners said they felt betrayed. The automaker hired a law firm that defended BP after the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. The EPA is already extending its testing procedures to look for "defeat devices" like the ones used by Volkswagen. On Friday the company announced a major restructuring. Matthias Muller, Porsche's chief for the last five years, took over as CEO of Volkswagen and is charged with picking up the pieces of a shattered company facing regulatory action and lawsuits. With GM, Toyota, and Takata scandals still fresh, Volkswagen will likely experience unprecedented levels of scrutiny. Additionally, VW's markets in the United States, Canada, and Mexico will be combined into a North American region under the leadership of former Skoda boss Winfried Vahland, though US chief executive Michael Horn will stay on. The company is also realigning its brands by specialty and streamlining its board. Firings, government action, restructurings, and international outrage – things that usually build up over months or years – all occurred in about a week. With dizzying speed, Volkswagen's future has changed dramatically. It all happened, it's still happening, so fast. OTHER NEWS & NOTES 2016 Buick Cascada to start at $33,990 Buick hasn't made a convertible in 25 years. That's a whole person who can drink plus a kindergartner. So it's been awhile. Enter the 2016 Buick Cascada. It has top-shelf Opel engineering, slinky design, and it's reasonably priced.
