Welcome to a great opportunity. If you have been searching for an incredibly attractive, very low mileage, exclusively Florida-owned and driven VW Beetle GLS Convertible, consider your search over. This 2005 Beetle GLS is a newly designed four-seat Convertible Sports Car that is equipped with a very fuel efficient, yet peppy 2.0 liter 4-cylinder L4 engine, matched with a wide-range 6-speed automatic transmission (with Overdrive). This sexy convertible is equally at home whether zipping through town, or traveling on the Interstate. It provide upwards of 32 mpg Highway and the 6-speed transmission really assists with the excellent fuel economy. It was purchased new in sunny West Palm Beach, Florida (the Beverly Hills of the East Coast), and has remained here its entire life. This high-gloss Graphite Pearl beauty is loaded. The exterior is extra-clean with a mirror finish. Nothing looks quite as impressive as a highly-polished Pearlescent-colored Import, and this GLS Beetle is the perfect canvas. It has the Convertible top package (not manually operated, like a lot of them out there), also full power options and keyless remote entry with security system. This car is a LOT of fun to drive! And with only 51,000 original, sunny South Florida miles, it drives superbly. Super-attractive appearance with factory 16-inch wheels, complete leather Sport interior and Black canvas power top. There is a unique large and airy retractable convertible top that stows easily with the push of a button. The same is also true of the one-touch express windows. One touch, and they all go up, or down at your discretion. Or, you can have them all go up/down one at a time. Enjoy the ice cold air conditioning when the top is up--or go topless! This fair-weather Beetle has been well cared for and fully serviced and is ready for a new loving home. It is in excellent condition and has been a Florida vehicle its entire life. Being a true Florida vehicle has big advantages. The beautiful, original exterior is in outstanding condition and there is absolutely no rust or corrosion anywhere, and even the underside still looks extra-clean. You certainly won't see that on any northern or mid-west vehicles, so be aware of that when purchasing on eBay. While you may not see the effects of non-fair weather climate now, who knows what will happen it a year or two when buying vehicles outside the Sunshine State. No unsightly parking lot dings, or dents, or scuffs, nicks or chips...so obvious care was used while driving the ridiculously low 5,000 miles per year here in South Florida. Simply amazing. The Medium Ash Grey leather interior is equally as clean, in fact, it is extra-clean! And this sexy Beetle Convertible looks just as appealing with the top up, or down. The rich leather is in excellent, perfect condition, as are the carpets and dashboard. No rips, tears, stains, odors...none of that nonsense. The Black Canvas power top still looks like new. It is obvious that this Convertible was a garaged vehicle. The factory aluminum/alloy wheels are very sharp-looking and compliment this convertible nicely. This Beetle boasts a complete set of premium heat-and-speed rated Uni-directional All-season performance radials all the way around, and really help give this Beetle a very smooth and quiet ride and also help it handle nice and tight. Driving this car is a dream! Loads of fun! And this is also a non-smoker's car so it is nice and fresh inside. You should start getting the picture here. This is a quality car that has been extremely well maintained and was used mainly to cruise around Palm Beach and enjoy all its fine shopping and dining, more than it was used for Interstate travel. There are not any visible rock or chip marks on the hood or bumper, which is quite remarkable. Both for a dark colored car, and also for one that is nearly 10 years old! That should speak volumes on how it was cared for. We are Jacksonville Beaches newest Import Dealership and we have this exceptionally maintained automobile offered for sale for 7 days with No Reserve. That's right, one lucky and savvy bidder with be getting a great drop-top that is ready for the summer season. And its a 4-seater....so you can bring your friends!

Here are 12 electric pickups in the works
Wed, Oct 21 2020With the unveiling of the GMC Hummer EV, the list of planned electric pickups is expanding. Legacy automakers like Ford and Chevy have theirs coming, as do startups like Tesla, Rivian and Bollinger, as well as some lesser known brands. Here are all the electric pickup trucks we know to be in the works, along with a few that are being discussed or mulled over. GMC Hummer EV The 2022 GMC HUMMER EV is a first-of-its kind supertruck develop View 40 Photos We’ve seen it now, and itÂ’s the business. The GMC Hummer EV comes out swinging with 1,000 horsepower from GMÂ’s new Ultium electric powertrain program, a wealth of off-road features, a removable roof, Super Cruise and the revival of the Hummer name. WeÂ’ll see the first ones on the road next fall. Tesla Cybertruck Tesla Cybertruck at the Petersen Museum View 14 Photos Tesla revealed the Cybertruck last year with, ahem, unique styling, a number of powertrain options and a claimed range of up to 500 miles. It has a compressed paper dash, a ramp for the bed, and “shatterproof” windows. It has already racked up hundreds of thousands of reservations. It will be built in Texas. Rivian R1T 2021 Rivian R1T View 15 Photos EV startup Rivian revealed its R1T electric pickup toward the end of 2018 with a claimed 0-60 time of 3 seconds and a towing capability of 11,000 pounds. Preproduction began in September 2020 at RivianÂ’s factory in Normal, Illinois. Bollinger Motors B2 Bollinger Motors B2 side outdoors View 31 Photos BollingerÂ’s B2 electric pickup is a Class 3 off-roader with retro styling, removable roof panels, and a unique “frunkgate” with a pass-through down the center of the vehicle. It was created with both enthusiasts and workers in mind, with features that can get it to remote places (portal axles, hydro-pneumatic suspension) and to get things done (room for 40 2x4s, equipped with eight 110-volt outlets and one 220-volt outlet). Bollinger also plans to make the B2 Chassis Cab available for fleet customization. Ford F-150 Electric Electric Ford F-150 Towing View 9 Photos WeÂ’ve known this to be in the works since early 2019. Since then, details have trickled out. Back in June, Ford announced its F-150 Electric would be coming within two years. WeÂ’ve seen it pull a million pounds worth of train and trucks, heard it will have more power than any other F-150, and seen its LED-laden front end.

Ferdinand Piech (1937-2019): The man who made VW global
Tue, Aug 27 2019Towering among his peers, a giant of the auto industry died Sunday night in Rosenheim/Upper Bavaria, Germany. Ferdinand Piech, a grandson of Ferdinand Porsche, who conceived the original Volkswagen in the 1930s, was the most polarizing automotive executive of our times. And one who brought automotive technology further than anyone else. Ferdinand Porsche had a son, Ferdinand (called "Ferry"), and a daughter, Louise, who married the Viennese lawyer Anton Piech. They gave birth to Ferdinand Piech, and his proximity to two Alfa Romeo sports cars — Porsche had done some work for the Italians — and the "Berlin-Rome-Berlin" race car, developed by Porsche himself, gave birth to Piech's interest in cars. After his teachers in Salzburg told his mother he was "too stupid" to attend school there, Piech, who was open about his dyslexia, was sent to a boarding school in Switzerland. He subsequently moved on to Porsche, where he fixed issues with the 904 race car and did major work on the 911. But his greatest project was the Le Mans-winning 917 race car, developed at breathtaking financial cost. It annihilated the competition, but the family had had enough: Amid growing tension among the four cousins working at Porsche and Piech's uncle Ferry, the family decided to pull every family member, except for Ferry, out of their management positions. Piech started his own consultancy business, where he designed the famous five-cylinder diesel for Mercedes-Benz, but quickly moved on to Audi, first as an engineer and then as CEO, where he set out to transform the dull brand into a technology leader. Piech killed the Wankel engine and hammered out a number of ambitious and sophisticated technologies. Among them: The five-cylinder gasoline engine; Quattro all-wheel drive and Audi's fantastic rally successes; and turbocharging, developed with Fritz Indra, whom Piech recruited from Alpina. The Audi 100/200/5000 became the world's fastest production sedan, thanks to their superior aerodynamics. Piech also launched zinc-coated bodies for longevity — and gave diesel technology a decisive boost with the advent of the fast and ultra-efficient TDI engines. Less known: Piech also decided to put larger gas tanks into cars. Customers loved it. Piech's first-generation Audi V8 was met with derision by competitors; it was too obviously based on the 200/5000.
