For your consideration:

2010 VW GTI, 4 Door with DSG (dual clutch) transmission. 6 Disc stereo that will also attach / control your iPod. There is an Aux-in (3.5mm) jack as well as bluetooth phone and bluetooth audio streaming. 

I bought this car in California as a Certified Pre-Owned car 3 years ago. The CPO warranty is transferrable and goes to 60k miles. When I was looking for GTIs to buy, I was convinced I needed the 6MT variant, but then I drove the DSG and the rest was history. This transmission is brilliant--I've never had a car shift so quickly and smoothly. With the paddle shifters and sport steering wheel, the car is a ton of fun to drive.

The title is clean and clear, in-hand. I have NEVER had a problem with this car except for a window switch that got stuck (my own doing). It has been flawless and was even on the cover of Consumer Reports in 2010.

The car is up to date on major services and just had the oil changed about a month ago. The service interval on oil changes is 10K so the new owner is set for a while.

No accidents or paint work. The car does have a couple of door dings (I have kids) and the wheels have some rash (I have a wife); otherwise, it's in great shape. I just put a K&N filter in recently and upgraded the engine coils from the stock parts to Audi R8 coils because they're far better.

The tires are Falken ZIEX all season tires that've been siped for better winter traction. I have an extra set of summer wheels (Audi 6-spoke) and tires if you're interested. I'll throw those in for free but you might have a hard time getting them home--I don't think they'll fit in the car.

TWO MORE "EXTRAS":

1. APR tuned. . . there are 4 different modes to pick from. Stock tune, 91 Octane (about 260HP), 93 Octane (about 290HP) and 100 Octane (over 300HP). You can pick among these tunes by pushing the buttons on the cruise control stalk. There are no added parts or controllers to worry about--the upgrade is seamless and brilliant. It was truly the best upgrade money I've ever spent and is entirely safe for the engine, transmission, etc. 

2. Currently there is a 12" Cerwin Vega sub and amp in the trunk. The subwoofer box is easily removable (about 10 seconds) so you can have more storage space in the back. Or, I'm happy to just pull the gear out before you take delivery. Keeping this stereo set-up is your choice.


Lastly, the car has the all weather honeycomb floor mats that show some signs of wear; however, I have a set set of carpeted mats BRAND NEW, IN THE PACKAGE, that come with the car.

If you have any questions, please email me and I'll get back to you. PLEASE DON'T EMAIL ME LOW-BALL OFFERS. I've heard it all before, fellas, and I'm not going to give this car away.



DELIVERY:

I live 10 minutes from Salt Lake International and would be happy to pick you up in the car, do the deal, and get you on your way in a very quick manner. My day job is flexible and I can work around you.

Volkswagen taps Porsche chief for board

Mon, Feb 23 2015

Matthias Mueller was promoted to the top position at Porsche in 2010 after a successful stint of developing model lines during his 36 years with the company, mainly at Audi. Having shown the same prowess while overseeing Porsche for the past five years, German outlet Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung reports that Mueller will be promoted to the management board of the Volkswagen Group, according to a leaked copy of an agenda for the meeting. It's said that a new spot is being created for him, one that will put him in charge of "overseeing cooperation" among Audi, Bentley, Bugatti, Lamborghini, and Porsche. While other group executives are known to hold positions on the board and with brands, or across brands, it isn't clear yet whether Mueller will keep his spot at the CEO of Porsche after the promotion. One thing that is certain is the 61-year-old Mueller doesn't see himself in line for Volkswagen Group CEO Martin Winterkorn's job in 2016, having told FAZ this month, "It's no solution to put a 63-year-old at the head of Volkswagen."

GM outsold VW globaly in first quarter, Toyota reports numbers next week

Thu, 18 Apr 2013

General Motors released its first quarter sales figures this week, reporting that it sold 2.36 million cars and trucks worldwide. That figure represents an increase of 3.6 percent when compared to the same period last year. GM's growth was attributed to many factors, including global Cadillac sales that were up 26 percent and Chevrolet posting a one percent increase over last year (this marked Chevy's tenth straight year of record global sales).
Volkswagen came in just behind GM, as the German automaker reported global sales from January through March at 2.27 million vehicles, an increase of five percent when compared to last year. While that number was strong, VW is cautioning that markets outside China and the US, such as those in Europe, are becoming a challenge as economies falter.
Yet to report sales is Toyota, current holder of the global world sales crown (the Japanese company sold 9.75 million cars last year, against 9.29 million sold by GM and 9.1 million vehicles sold by VW). Even though GM and Toyota both say they don't care who sells the most units, it is unquestionably a strong bragging point and sales equate to revenue. That said, Toyota will report its first quarter numbers next week.

New VW Beetle Convertible ad needs no disguise

Mon, 18 Feb 2013

Convertibles make you do funny things. Ask someone if they'd drive a hardtop in near freezing temperatures with all the windows down and they might not even answer, thinking the question so ridiculous. Give that same person a convertible they love and you might just have to ask them to please put the top up even when snow is on the ground.
That guy has to take precautions to enjoy his proclivities, and as this new ad for the Volkswagen Beetle Convertible shows, not everyone understands. Have a watch below, and note that there's just one woman in the minute-long spot, and she's nowhere near the car. Seriously, why didn't VW run this commercial during the Super Bowl?
