Currently putting my beloved car up for sale. My wife and I purchased it brand in in 2011 when we moved to Boston from New York. We will be moving back to New York City for a job opportunity, so sadly, the car needs to be sold. 

The car has lived an easy life so far, we walk to work, so the car has never seen a rush hour. About 95% of the mileage is from long distance highway trip to visit family in New York and Ohio. It's a non smoker car as well. We are the original owners, and has been very well cared for (I'm an ex auto technician) and have all service documented. She drives extremely well and is the best car I've eve owned.

You can look up the specs and reviews of this car through Google, very impressive.

It comes with the original carpeted floor mats and the rubber plastic ones as well.

Comes with 2 keys fobs. The 30,000 mile service was just done, and a check over was done by Volkswagen.

The photos were taken right after I cleaned the car myself. Please know, while the car is still for sale, I may use it for chores around town. Also, the car is parked on city streets, so it's likely it won't be spotless if you want to come look at it. I can wash before you pick up.

The car has minor dings, scratches or maybe a minor minor dent on it. Mostly from small bumps from shopping carts in parking lots. Also, there's an army of homeless people that search my neighborhood in search of bottles and cans. They often bump their cars into the back of cars, please see picture of back bumper. Most of which can certainly be buffed out with ease. overall, she's a beautiful car. Please see pictures, they show the worst of the minor imperfections. 

Also, please see picture that shows between front and back passenger side doors. There is some kind of rub mark on the trim. I had the car parked for most of the summer and a branch from a tree was rubbing on it and you can see minor marks from this. I don't know what process it takes to get this out. Also look at passenger side mirror picture, the same happened here.

Also, see picture of one of the tires have a small piece missing from side wall. Likely from hitting curb. I had checked out at goodyear, and they said it's just cosmetic. But please understand I cannot guarantee this. Please check out for yourself.

The only reason I'm selling is because having a car in New York City is impracticable. I originally planned on owning her forever. 

Heated seats keep your bottom nice and warm as well.

I have all service records including the 10k, 20k, and 30k services (30K was just done). Alone with everything that car has been done.

 Vehicle carries the factory 36,000 mile warranty and 50,000 powertrain warranty, please see VW for details. This warranty is through Volkswagen, not me.

This car was purchased in Ohio and is in my wife's name. It is currently registered in Massachusetts and please understand Mass. DMV laws before buying. The vehicle does not come with plates, I will need to personally surrender them to the DMV after the sale.


  
 I have all title in hand and they is clean and free of any previous liens as pointed out on those lame car reports.

 
When you look at any vehicle, please use some basic common sense and think it over.. Do you really want the car ? Is it only about the cheapest one you can find ? Ebay bottom feeders are all over the place.. Do you really want a good car well represented or are you just trolling the bottom interested in price only ?? Or do you want a good car for a good deal that is fair to both parties. If you want a great car from a great owner at a fair price, let's talk. If you're expecting on buying then trying to haggle over petty things, please don't bother.

As someone who used to be an auto tech at a car dealership, I recommend you buy from private sellers. Carfax reports are a joke and so many cars at dealerships were damaged and they never tell you. I'm not hiding any imperfections and I'm being 100% clear about the car.

I am a private seller, but I am willing to work with your schedule and with the trucking company you desire. But keep in mind, I do have a day job, I am not a full time auto seller.

 
Also I am sorry to report that we do not have temp tags in this Massachusetts. I don't know why.

Buy is now price is below Blue Book Value. I'm doing this for quick and smooth transaction for both of us.

It also has bluetooth and xm radio.







The following pictures show the imperfections as mentioned in description:

Volkswagen Golf R 400 Concept is a 201-mph hot hatch

Sun, 20 Apr 2014

This, friends, is what happens when you shoehorn 395 horsepower into a Golf. You get a three-door hatch that will happily scurry to 62 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds and on to a top speed of 201 mph. Oh yes, we like you, Golf R 400 Concept.
As we explained in our original post, the R 400 is the long-awaited successor to bonkers Golf creations like the GTI W12 from 2007 and, more recently, the Design Vision GTI. It's powered by the same 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder found in a number of Volkswagen (and Audi, SEAT and Skoda) products, although it's been heavily massaged to pump out 332 pound-feet of torque along side its amplified horsepower.
Naturally, it's been lowered and now rides on 19-inch wheels. Outside of those changes, though, mums the word on suspension and chassis enhancements. While this is a bummer, the striking looks of the Golf R 400 more than make up for it.

Volkswagen profit jumps as it warns of a cooling auto market

Wed, Oct 30 2019

FRANKFURT, Germany — Volkswagen says its profits jumped 44% in the third quarter thanks to a more profitable mix of vehicles in its lineup but warned that global car markets are slowing more than expected and lowered its forecast for annual sales. After-tax profit rose to $4.42 billion (3.98 billion euros) as revenues rose 11% to $68.27 billion (61.42 billion euros). The sales margin of 7.8% exceeded the goal of 6.5-7.5% as vehicles bringing higher profits took a larger share of sales. The Wolfsburg-based automaker pointed to the headwinds facing the industry by saying that it expects "vehicle markets will contract faster than previously anticipated in many regions of the world." It said sales would be "on a level" with last year's record of 10.8 million vehicles. Previously it had expected a slight increase. The company said its profits would be in the lower end of its forecast range. Global automakers are facing a slowdown in sales amid disputes over trade and from pressure in the European Union and China to develop and sell low-emission vehicles that require heavy investment in new technology. Ford and Renault have issued profit warnings in recent days, while Daimler, maker of Mercedes-Benz luxury cars, lost money in the second quarter and is expected to outline a cost-cutting strategy for investors on Nov. 14. Volkswagen is leading the push into electric vehicles in Europe by launching its ID.3 battery-powered compact car at prices it says will make zero local emission vehicles a mass phenomenon. The company was able to increase earnings in the quarter despite an 18% rise in spending on research and development.

The Volkswagen Group switches official language to English

Wed, Dec 14 2016

The Volkswagen Group can't be fairly thought of as entirely German anymore, so the news that the company is switching its official language to English to help attract managers and executives is a rational, if surprising, decision. While many VW Group companies are still staidly German in character and culture, consider the other companies that it controls: Bentley (British), Bugatti (French), Ducati and Lamborghini (Italian), Skoda (Czech), Scania trucks (Swedish), and SEAT (Spanish). Not to mention the large Volkswagen Group of America operation, which constructs cars in Chattanooga, TN. Volkswagen's explicit motivation is to improve management recruitment – making sure the company isn't losing out on candidates for important positions because they can't speak German – and that's inherently sensible in a globalized economy. Particularly considering, like it or lump it, that English is the lingua franca of said global economy. It also should make it inherently easier to communicate between its world-wide subsidiaries and coordinate operations. It's hard to say for sure if this will have any impact on the consumer, although it's easy to see the benefits if, say, VW Group hires some American product planners or engineers and they push for features and designs that more closely suit American needs. After all, the US is a hugely important market for any manufacturer, and so the switch to English almost certainly has something to do with the outsized influence of the US in the global economy. And there doesn't seem to be a downside from a purely rational perspective, although it could mean that the Group's corporate culture becomes less German. Whether that's a good or a bad thing depends on your perspective.
