Like Mazda, Volkswagen used Chicago to unveil a special-edition model, the GTI 20th Anniversary Edition. Introduced in 1983 as the Rabbit GTI, VW's latest pocket-rocket pays homage to the original with numerous styling cues, including a polished-metal Rabbit logo with "GTI" red badge on rear hatch. Additional performance accents include black-surround headlights; a larger-diameter, single polished exhaust; darkened taillamps; side mirrors housed in black; and body-color bumper, chin spoiler, side valances, lowered rear bumper, and fixed rear spoiler above the hatch. A lowered sport suspension, 18-inch Z-rated summer performance tires, and larger, vented four-wheel disc brakes help the new GTI tackle the curves. Power comes from VW's ubiquitous 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine--good for 180 horsepower and 173 pound-feet of torque--which is mated to a six-speed manual transmission. The 20th Anniversary GTI's cockpit is a driver's paradise, with black-and-gray sport-cloth Recaro front seats wearing red "GTI" embroidery, black headliner, striped safety belts, the signature "golf ball" shift knob with red "GTI" logo, and a brushed-aluminum plaque that indicates the exact production number for the model, anywhere from 1 to 4000. This is number 3151. This special GTI comes to showrooms this spring (dated February 2003), priced at $23,225.
ADULT DRIVER. I purchased this GTI from Cherry Hill Volkswagen at 79,900 miles, February of 2009. I use it mainly for daily work commute (8 miles total) and some weekend getaways. I'm proud to say it's never been smoked in, and rarely eaten in. This car is an absolute BLAST to drive! Begrudgingly we need to part ways for something more family friendly. Clean title and CarFax. Standard Features: 1.8 liter turbo 4-cyclinder engine (180 hp, 173 lbs. ft. torque); 6-Spd manual transmission; power glass sunroof; ABS (4-Wheel); power windows and locks with remote keyless entry (2 remotes included); anti-theft alarm system; dual front air bags with side curtain protection airbag system; CFC-free air conditioning; power steering; tilt wheel; cruise control; rear-window electric defroster; rear-window wiper and washer The 2003 VW GTI 20th Anniversary Editions were limited to a 4,000-unit production run, of which only 2,000 are Black Magic Pearl. In addition to the standard features mentioned above, they include 18-inch rims and larger disc brakes with red calipers. The styling cues include red "GTI" badges and classic, polished-metal Rabbit logo, black surround on the headlights, and body colored chin spoiler, side valances, lower rear bumper valence, and hatch spoiler. The rear is accented with a larger-diameter, single polished exhaust and darkened taillamps. The interior features black and gray sport-cloth seating and a black headliner. The Recaro Sport seats have larger bolsters and red "GTI" embroidery. Other interior styling cues include red striped seat belts, black floor mats with gray borders, "Golf ball" shift knob with red "GTI" logo, and perforated black leather with gray stitching on the shift boot, steering wheel, and handbrake. Brushed-aluminum accents, alloy foot pedals, and doorsills with red "GTI" logo complete the interior.

VW pondering low-cost sub-brand for China?
Wed, 30 Jan 2013More detail is being sketched into the Volkswagen Group's plan to launch a low-cost brand for emerging markets. Late last year a German report quoted a VW rep saying that the brand has been interested in building a no-frills car, the kind that would challenge Dacia and Datsun, for a while. With both Proton and Suzuki effectively out of the partnership picture, a report in Reuters suggests VW could go straight to China, developing a car with its joint venture partners and building and selling it there.
Officially, company CEO Martin Winterkorn said the issue of a model for emerging markets would be decided this year but VW isn't any closer to confirming any kind of plan for a car in its portfolio underneath the Up!, remarking to Reuters about the China possibility, "That's an issue we're currently looking at."
VW recalling 2.64M vehicles worldwide over engine, light issues
Thu, 14 Nov 2013Volkswagen is staging a massive, worldwide recall that's already grown from 1.68 million to 2.64 million vehicles and covers three different issues across a number of vehicles. We already reported on 61,000 Tiguans getting recalled over lighting issues - that was just in the US. Globally, however, VW will be recalling 800,000 Tiguans, according to Automotive News, with the focus on CUVs built between 2008 and 2011. The issue with the Tiguan relates to a simple fuse swap, so this is rather unremarkable, aside from the sheer number of vehicles being fixed. The real, troubling issues relate to gearboxes and pickups.
239,000 Amarok pickups (pictured right) are being recalled over fuel leaks, while 1.6 million vehicles are being recalled to swap the synthetic oil in dual-clutch transmissions with mineral oil. Now, the transmission issue is one for the global Volkswagen Group to address, not just the VW brand - vehicles from Audi, Škoda and Seat use the same seven-speed DSG and are covered under the recall, as well.
Why the switch from synthetic to mineral oil? Apparently, using the synthetic oil in a DSG and then subjecting it to stop-and-go conditions or heavy loads in a hot and humid climate can lead to electronic malfunctions, according to a Volkswagen press release. The switch, from the sounds of it, is largely a preventative measure.
VW boss confirms Subaru-aping Golf Alltrack for US
Fri, Nov 21 2014Subaru needs to watch out, because the Japanese brand with a utilitarian image has a big bull's eye on its back. Not only is Acura considering going 100-percent all-wheel drive in a bid to mimic the successful automaker, Volkswagen has just confirmed that the Golf Alltrack is coming to the US as another competitor for Subaru's popular Outback crossover. Volkswagen Group of America CEO Michael Horn has confirmed the addition of the higher-riding, all-wheel drive version of the Golf SportWagen to Automotive News, indicating that the model will arrive in the US in 2016. "That's what our dealers, our customers, are asking us for," he said to the industry publication. The Golf Alltrack, which debuted at the Paris Motor Show in early October, has an extra 0.75 inches of ride height and protective black cladding all the way around. Its biggest mechanical differentiator from other Golfs is its Haldex all-wheel drive system, a setup that can completely unhook from the rear axle when not needed to save fuel. In Europe, the Alltrack is available with a turbocharged 1.8-liter with 178 horsepower and two diesels offering between 109hp and 182 hp. However, Horn made no mention of likely powertrains for the US. Horn tells Automotive News that all-wheel drive tooling is currently being installed at the Puebla, Mexico, factory where the standard Golf Sportwagen is built. VW might have tipped its hand about this possibility several months ago when press shots of the wagon were released for the US with TDI and 4Motion badges. Horn says he expects even the front-wheel drive version to be a sales hit here, suggesting it may eventually account for 50 percent of the Golf range's volume.
