1973 Volkswagen Super Beetle, Solid Build, Raked Out, Turbo Kit, Roof Rack on 2040-cars
East Greenbush, New York, United States
|
Up for auction is one 1973 Volkswagen Super Beetle. this has been a favorite in my collection for quite some time, and my wife is having a hard time letting her go. this has always been the most reliable out of my fleet of classic vehicles, and has traveled all over the northeast on some fantastic buggy adventures. She has an amazing look and feel to her, wonderful patina an draws a crowd wherever I go. Supports a freshly built 1600 dual port, stock build 26mpg Adjustable New Empi front suspension, with rear adjustable torsion bars included Recovered Seats Roof Rack Turbo Kit ready for install, Custom made Subaru style setup that came off a running 1600 New Tires/Brakes/MasterCylinder/Rear window rubber.....many other random new parts To be clear this car is far from perfect, but shows very well. there is a crack in the dash, flaws in the paint, and other little things that add to the character of the car. Although you would be hard pressed to find a more solid, drivable bug in the northeast. That being said she is an absolute blast to drive, and I recommend anyone interested to contact me and inspect the car in person. I do not want to misrepresent the car, and would rather take you out for a ride and show all the thumbs up you'll get rather than bidding blind.

VW Super Bowl teaser with Jimmy Cliff is like a less-mean Tosh.0 Web Redemption
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Reggae super-duper-star and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Jimmy Cliff has been using music to send positive vibes out into the universe for decades now, so its no surprise that his message on behalf of Volkswagen is one of redemption.
Dubbed Sunny Side, this web-spot is VW's warmup of sorts for what promises to be another blockbuster year in the world of Super Bowl commercials. Without giving away the game, the euphonious commercial sees Cliff opening his arms and his heart to some YouTube 'celebrities' that might see courser treatment from the likes of Tosh.0, for instance. We can't help but be reminded of Coca-Cola's legendary 1971 Hilltop spot with the "I'd like to buy the world a Coke" lyric, too.
Enjoy the pre-Super Bowl VW spot below, and don't forget to pay it forward... your karma will thank you. For those of you that just can't get enough of commercial-making magic, we've included a "making-of" video, as well.
Porsche-Piech buy 10% stake in VW's holding company
Tue, 18 Jun 2013In August, 2009, as the scuttled merger of Porsche and Volkswagen had gone bad and Porsche was backed up against the ropes, Porsche Automobil Holding SE (PAHSE) relinquished a ten-percent stake in itself to Qatar Holdings as well as options it held on 17 percent of VW shares. The sale meant that, for the first time since the founding of the company 61 years before, an entity outside the Porsche and Piech families had a say in the running of PAHSE.
Buying that ten-percent stake back returns full ownership to the two families, the holding company's sole possession being ownership of 50.7 percent of VW's common shares. The price paid wasn't disclosed, but at market rates the purchase would be worth close to $1.25 billion. Qatar intends to hold onto the 17-percent stake it has in Volkswagen.
Volkswagen to add 50k jobs by 2018
Thu, 04 Apr 2013Volkswagen 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.
