2010 Volkswagen Gti 4d, Dsg, Cpo Warranty, Apr Upgrades, Clean Title, Serviced on 2040-cars
|
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.

VW Beetle R is one mean bug
Wed, 02 Oct 2013Volkswagen's R lineup currently consists of the Golf R in North America, and the too-cool-for-school Scirocco R in Europe. It hasn't exactly been a secret as to which VW would next get the R treatment; the German manufacturer reportedly confirmed that a hotter Beetle would be coming to the US. That announcement, in August 2011, was followed up by a production-ready Beetle R Concept at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show.
After some wait, we're finally seeing spy shots of the Beetle R in Germany. The mule shown in the images here is wearing the R-Line bodykit, which adds sportier front and rear fascias, side skirts, dual exhausts and a not-so-subtle spoiler. Topped off with Volkswagen's traditional, five-spoke R wheels, we'd be just fine with the Beetle R coming to market as is.
Our spy photographer, though, seems to think that the production R will get even sportier sheetmetal, which we take to mean the more assertive look shown on the Frankfurt show car. Larger intakes on the front fascia, a bigger rear spoiler and vertical vents on the rear bumper could all be upcoming. Whether a production model will include the concept's polished wheels (R cars haven't traditionally embraced that look), vented hood and the quad-tipped exhausts remains to be seen.

LG Chem's batteries for the 2017 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid minivan will be the Korean company's first time engineering and manufacturing a complete battery pack in Michigan for a volume production North American plug-in hybrid. The packs include lithium-ion cells, electronics and control units. The batteries were engineered at LG Chem's Troy, Michigan facility, and will be built at the company's Holland, Michigan plant. "Our experience with entire battery packs, including cell design and manufacturing capability, as well as our expertise in vehicle integration, makes us the ideal battery supplier for the Pacifica Hybrid," says LGCPI CEO Denise Gray.

The van, which is suited to family, taxi or city delivery use, can run on CNG or bio-natural gas in addition to gasoline. It also features a six-speed DSG dual-clutch transmission – a first in its class. The multiple high-pressure tanks for compressed gas are located under the floor, preserving all the Caddy's precious cargo space. A TGI version of the Caddy Alltrack will also be available, initially with a six-speed manual transmission, with the DSG option arriving in the middle of 2016.

EU formally questions French government assistance of Peugeot's finance arm
Fri, 28 Dec 2012Recently, the finance arm of PSA/Peugeot-Citroën was in such debt trouble that it was pricing itself out of the car loan market. The rates it was paying to service its debt, which was rated one step above junk, were so high that it was forced to charge car-buying customers higher rates than they could find elsewhere. This was adding to Peugeot's already impressive woes by sending revenue out the door to competitors.
Two months ago a deal was worked out with the French government whereby the state would provide 7 billion euro ($9 billion USD) in bonds to guarantee the finance arm's loans. The French government could nominate someone to join the Peugeot board, Peugeot would guarantee more French jobs, and on top of that deal, other banks would provide non-guaranteed loans. The government would take no equity stake in the car company.
Although not yet finalized, the arrangement is meant to create some breathing room for Peugeot Finance to lower its interest rates for customers, and a government-nominated board member, Louis Gallois, was recently named to Peugeot's supervisory board. The arrangement was also openly questioned by at least three competitors: Ford, Renault - which is 15-percent owned by the French government after it received state aid - and the German state of Lower Saxony, itself a 15-percent shareholder in Volkswagen.
