Current Mileage is 20,000... I am listing my 2013 GLI Autobahn Edition, rather than waiting to trade it in. What is the reason I would sell it, rather than wait? The seats. My previous 5 series BMW seats were great for me because they were almost flat. The GLI seats have a very low seat height which I love. However… They also have very high bolsters, which are great when you get into a nice corner but not when you commute 70 miles a day. The suspension is also more sporty than I like at this point in my life. My friends seem to love the seats, so it is a matter of preference. I have some extras with the car, and all of it is included in the price. I already know what I can get for trade in, but the car I want is not out yet. I have not paid it off because my interest rate is almost nothing. I am asking for less than what I owe on it, and I will pay off any balance that is due upon sale. It's your choice if you prefer to pay VW financial directly, or if you would rather pay me. I will give you a legal Bill of Sale and also a Statement of Fact both of which are legal DMV forms, and will transfer ownership to you as soon as the loan is paid and the title is cleared. The title is held electronically and will be released by VW 1-2 weeks at the most, after loan payoff. I could have the seats re-upholstered and have the bolsters removed and the leather redone, but I originally only bought the car while I was waitingget a new wagon and I don’t want to get into customizing it too much. So, here is all the info regarding the car. It is a 2013 GLI with Autobahn package and manual 6 speed transmission. I have both the cloth matts (in the car) and the rubber heavy duty GLI matts (brand new and included). It has a trunk liner with dividers. I have a 1080p HD wide angle dash cam that is mounted and included with the car. It has had the Soundaktor (fake sound generator) unplugged. I can plug it back in or leave it, your choice. I didn’t want any fake sounds in my car, and it’s much quieter inside the car without it. FULL DISCLOSURE: The front windshield was replaced about 6 months ago, due to a large can or something getting kicked up by a car ahead of me on the freeway. (Something always seems to happen wbuy a brand new car… Like it’s a magnet). I have 17” GLI OEM wheels and tires that I put on the car, because I wanted all the Autobahn featuredidnwathe 18” two tone rims on there. Not my style. I like understated. But I also have the 18” GLI Bathhurst wheels and tires that I took off the car and stored. They have very little wear on the tires and are in like-new condition. I took them off the first month. You can use the 18’s with summer tires and put snow tires on the 17’s and always have a set of stock GLI rims on the car, if you live in a colder climate. It has matching flat black license plate frames and screws front and rear. I have the original window sticker, and all books and manuals. Both key fobs are included. I have also just paid the registration, so it’s valid until March 2015. The scheduled services have been done at 10,000 miles and again at 15,000 miles. I will be doing the 20,000 mile service soon. I also changed the oil and filter at 3,300 miles because I just didn't like the idea of going 10k miles on the oil that came from the factory. I also changed the oil drain plug with an ECS tuning / Magnetic drain plug. Only VW specific oil and VW and MANN filters have bused. I also only use 91+ premium gasoline. Usually Chevron, Mobile or 76. That’s about it. If you have an interest in the car, feel free to contact me. I had to order this car with the gray/ black color option and Autobahn package with manual 6 speed transmission. I have seen a few 2012’s for sale, but remember that they did not have a traction control button prior to 2013. In other words, you cannot disable the traction control like you can on the 2013. Also, there are no TPMS sensors in the wheels of the 2013. The previous model had them, and that means that when you swap rims/tires, you have to make sure they also have the TPMS sensors. On this car, you can swap rims and tires all you like. There is one button inside the glove box that you push to re-program the system. It uses the ABS system to monitor tire rotation. That is how it measures the air pressure in the tires, via the difference in the turning rate of the wheels. Look on forum sights and you will see what I am talking about. Thanks for reading my ad and if there is anything I didn’t put on here that you would like to know or if you have an interest in this car, I can be contacted at 949-412-5723. Car is also listed locally. Listing will be deleted if it sells locally. I also drive the car daily, so the mileage will be about 70 miles per day higher, but I will update mileage weekly while the car is listed for sale. I will be continuing to take care of any services or warranties and anything else that the car may need until it sells. I have always treated all my cars/ bikes/ projects the same way. Until it sells, it's still my car and maintained accordingly. As a bonus, I will have it detailed and I will fill the gas tank before you pick it up. The Current NADA values on my car are $21,500 Trade In and $24,625 Clean Retail Value. Thank you for reading my listing. Let me know if there is anything regarding the GLI that I have not covered in this listing, that you would like to know about. Have a great day! P.S. If you do not need the 18” wheels and would rather purchase the car with the 17” wheels that are on it right now…Then I would be willito sell the 18” wheels separately and sell the car for $22,000. Please keep in mind that I will not sell the rims before I sell the car. Just in case new owner wants both factory sets. Thank you.

VW Beetle R is one mean bug

Wed, 02 Oct 2013

Volkswagen'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.

Recharge Wrap-up: 2015 Fuel Economy Guide available, how Porsche ships 919 Hybrid

Fri, Nov 7 2014

The EPA and Department of Energy have released the 2015 Fuel Economy Guide. Unsurprisingly, the groups say that this year features more fuel efficient and low-emissions vehicles than previous years, and they span a greater variety of vehicle types. The guide also provides "best-in-class" lists, greenhouse gas ratings and estimated fuel costs for each vehicle. The EPA and DOE hope that car buyers will use the guide to help choose cars that are better for the environment and the climate. Check out the guide for yourself or read more in the press release below. To get from one WEC race to the next, Porsche ships its 919 Hybrid LMP1 cars by air. As the team travels around the world - from continent to continent - it must take 35 tons worth of cargo with it, including two LMP1 cars. That means draining fluids, partially dismantling the cars, and fitting everything into a 747. The team also ships items by sea, which requires shipping extra sets of items due to the longer shipping times. "It's all about efficiency," according to Porsche. Read more in the press release below. Terra Motors is unveiling the A4000i electric scooter, which it will sell in Europe, at the EICMA motorcycle show in Milan. The A4000i, which features smartphone connectivity, will be the company's European flagship model. Terra Motors will begin selling in Italy, and plans to make arrangements to sell in several more countries shortly after. Terra hopes to set up manufacturing in Europe, as well. Also on display at EICMA is the company's Bizmo II electric scooter, which has a driving range of 93 miles on a single charge. Read more in the press release below. Volkswagen is providing a 2015 e-Golf to Stanford University for research. The car will be used to study electric mobility, improvements in the driving experience and people's driving behavior and attitudes toward EVs. "Volkswagen's longstanding relationship with Stanford has allowed us to push the boundaries of automotive research and innovation," says Volkswagen's Ewald Goessmann, "and we look forward to extending our work together to drive advances in electric vehicles."

Next VW GTI to get 10-speed dual-clutch gearbox

Wed, Nov 26 2014

Following on Volkswagen's official announcement that it was working on a ten-speed, dual-clutch transmission, Auto Express has it on "good authority" that the new transmission will end up in the next GTI, GTD and Golf R. The brand's current seven-speed will be retained for lesser eight-generation Golfs. While the new gearbox won't be limited to just the higher-end Golf range, the new hatchback, expected in 2017, will be the first to get it, Auto Express reports. The new DSG is the same size as the Volkswagen Group's seven-speed dual-clutch, and will easily fit into VAG's MQB platform, so we should expect it to filter into the rest of the Group's vehicles, much like the seven-speed 'box has. The ten-speed is likely to see applications beyond even the small cars of the MQB platform. The gearbox can handle 405 pound-feet of torque, according to AE, making its application in larger offerings such as the gas-powered MLB cars and crossovers a likelihood. Beyond the new gearbox, Volkswagen is also toying with mild-hybrid tech for the standard Golf and better batteries for the e-Golf. As we said, expect the new Golf to arrive in European markets in 2017, with the current Euro-market Golf getting updated next year. As for the US, we wouldn't be surprised if VW followed the trail blazed by the Mark 7, with a North American arrival for the eight-gem Golf slated for a year or so after sales in Europe begin.
