WVWEV7AJ6DW121934

 

I am the first owner of this GTI. I purchased it at Palmetto 57 Volkswagen off of fl826 in Miami, FL. This car has had the oil changed every 5,000 miles, and serviced regularly. The engine has been properly broken in; the performance modifications were not installed until 6,116 miles. The initial 6,000 miles the car spent conservatively commuting 20 miles each way. After 6,116 miles, all performance upgrades were installed.

 

This car has never given me any problems; I have loved driving it every moment! I’m going to be sad to see it go, but I’m moving to New York City, and cannot have a car.  This car has been tastefully, and professionally tuned. I have only installed the best parts. All of the upgrades were installed, tuned, and maintained by Foreign Affairs Motorsport, located in Pompano Beach, FL. You can look up more information about them here: foreignaffairsmotorsports dot com - They have a phenomenal reputation, and they are family owned.

 

This is a non-smoker car, has never been in an accident, and has always been kept in a covered garage.

 

Modifications include:

 

2.0 TSI APR ECU STAGE 2 PERFORMANCE SOFTWARE

CARBONIO TSI COLD AIR INTAKE

USP 3 INCH STAINLESS STEEL 2.0 TUBRO FSI/TSI DOWNPIPE

HOTWIRED VALENTINE 1

 

BLACKED OUT FRONT TURN SIGNAL

Over $11,000 invested in this car!

 

So after all of these upgrades, how does it drive?

 

Light and super fast. According to APR, and Akrapovic, the numbers fall around 280-300hp and 300-320 torque. I have never dyno tested the car, but I do have access to one if you are interested. This car launches off the line with such aggression, the wheels cannot even grip the pavement. When cruising on the highway, and the rpm’s are around 3500-4000 and you lightly press the gas, the car wants to take off.  You will be thrown into your seat with a smile. The sway bars, coil-overs, and super sports greatly increase the grip, rigidity, and athleticism of this car. The Akrapovic exhaust is about as beautiful of a sound as you can imagine. From both inside and outside, the sound is such perfection; you’ll find you are driving with the windows down in the middle of summer just to hear it! Also, what most people who want to buy the exhaust and have not heard it in person, the exhaust has such a nice deep resonant presence at idle, that most people don’t expect to see a 4 cylinder pull up. The quality of the exhaust is astounding; Akrapovic is hands down, the best.

 

Best part about all of this… the car does not suffer significant mpg’s, and daily driving this car is perfect. The power doesn’t throw you into your seat until 3800rpms. Everything below is smooth, with wonderful road manners. Occasionally, there is some rubbing in the back. This only happens though if potholes/bumps are not negotiated properly, or you are carrying your girlfriend’s suitcase in the back.

 

Of course, if you are looking at this car, and have gotten this far into my description, you are probably aware of all of this. This is one of the best, pure GTI’s you are going to find. There isn’t a navigation system; the car has the original plaid seats, and a 6speed. The options are sparse, but the car is very light. This car has been done the right way.

 

Asking price is $29,500.

 

Let me know what you think, shoot me an email with any questions you have, and if you are really serious, send me an offer. If you’re in the Miami/Coral Gables/Midtown/Miami Beach Area, let me know, and you can come by and check it out!

 

Thanks for your interest!

European car sales up 8% in February

Sat, 22 Mar 2014

Three weeks ago an analyst increased projections for European car sales this year, expecting them to climb three percent compared to last year instead of 2.7 percent. That number is a postive sign after years of hard times but it turns out February was especially good, overall European sales climbing eight percent on a wave of southern European recovery and discounts - and this comes after five months of gains including January's 7.2-percent jump over the year before.
The only country of Europe's five largest markets to post a decline was France, just as it did in January, Germany, the UK and Italy posting solid double-digit numbers, Spain rocking the charts with an 18-percent increase because of a government program to encourage trade-ins.
The only brand to miss the wave was Volkswagen, dropping 0.8 percent as it watched the double-digit growth at sister brands Audi, Seat and Skoda lift the Volkswagen Group sales up by seven-percent. Peugeot overcame flat sales at Citroën to improve the group by 3.5 percent, BMW and the Mercedes-Benz/Smart combo rose by four percent, the Fiat group jumped 5.8 percent, Ford was up 11 percent, the Renault Group 11.5 percent, General Motors 12 percent and the Toyota clan by 14 percent.

Volkswagen Group names Paefgen head of classics program

Tue, 04 Oct 2011

You may remember the name Franz-Josef Paefgen. Until recently, the German engineer and executive was head of both Bentley and Bugatti. Before that he was chief executive of Audi, after working for several years at Ford. He technically "retired" earlier this year, but like the cars he helped create, an executive like Paefgen could never really retire. So it should come as little surprise that the Volkswagen Group has named Dr. Paefgen head of its Classic program.
In his new capacity, Paefgen will oversee the historic automobile activities of the entire VW Group, including those of Volkswagen, Seat, Skoda, Audi, Lamborghini, and of course Bentley and Bugatti. It strikes us as a suitable semi-retirement for the man responsible in no small part for the Bugatti Veyron and Bentley Mulsanne, to name just two, and who was decorated in 2006 by the ACO as the "Spirit of Le Mans" for his contribution to endurance racing. Read the official announcement after the break.

Honda wins Commercial of the Decade, but not for the ad you think [w/VIDEO]

Honda's Commercial of the Decade: "Grrr" - Click above to watch video
The mad men at Adweek recently voted for the Commercial of the Decade (Super Bowl commercials not included) and Honda took top honors over memorable ads from the last ten years by companies like Nike, Budweiser and Sony. That's not a big surprise considering Honda often puts a huge amount of effort into its on-air spots. However, the Japanese automaker didn't win for the commercial you might have expected: "Cog." Though Honda's famous commercial that breaks down a European Accord Tourer into a Rube Goldberg-esque machine was also a finalist, it was beaten by another Honda commercial called "Grrr" that's narrated by Garrison Keillor of all people. You've probably never seen it, but you can after the jump.
Volkswagen also made the list of finalists, but the particular ad chosen out of all the comical VW ads we've seen was unexpected as well. Most surprising carmaker with a commercial in the finals: Saturn. Who knew...
