The rustfree mint body was a high quality proper windows out

professionally rustproofed from the dealer when it was delivered new consequently it remains rust-free to this day. It was refinished in
its factory correct color light blue mirror-glass high quality

chrome wheels with new Mastercraft radial tires that really make this Karmann standout. This Karmann
Ghia has been a crowd favorite at all the shows it has been to. The
interior has been expertly restored to excellent condition. New door panels, correct woven German carpets and front
and rear seats were redone, CD stereo was professionally upgraded with high-end speakers in the kick panels and much
more a show worthy detailed interior. The engine detailing is very
nice under the rear lid and to see that sweet 1600 Dual Port all
redone and super clean with all the detail is a joy indeed. The
chassis, floors torque tubes are clean, rustfree, nicely preserved
are rock solid with no issues. This is a superb example that is a
rarity to see in this fine condition throughout.

The
heart of this Karmann Ghia is its rebuilt sweet running, 1600

shifts smooth and tight. Front-end was completely rebuilt as well.
This is a real sweet running, sounding and performing little karmann

leaks. This car runs and drives superbly with excellent handling,
braking and performance.

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.

How do you build the world's most fuel-efficient production car? Start with the world's most aerodynamic design. The Volkswagen XL1 is capable of 261 miles per gallon thanks to its sleek shape and ultra efficient plug-in diesel hybrid powertrain. The downside is that only 250 will be made and none will be sold stateside. That didn't stop us from taking our turn behind the wheel of this truly revolutionary ride.

NHTSA has launched a preliminary investigation into complaints of Smart Fortwo engine fires. So far, the agency has received eight complaints about the rear engine compartment catching fire in model year 2008 and 2009 Fortwos and quickly engulfing the car. Six of the fires occurred while driving and were preceded by a check engine light. "The safety of our customers is our primary concern, and we are cooperating with NHTSA in its inquiry," says parent company Mercedes-Benz. "We are not aware of any injuries related to this inquiry." Read more from Automotive News. Volkswagen will pay $1.6 billion (US) in Canada as part of a settlement of its diesel emissions scandal. The funds will be used to fix or buy back some 105,000 affected cars, compensate owners between $3,815 and $4,451 above the buyback price, and pay a $11.2 million civil fine. So far, VW has agreed to spend over $18 billion in North America in connection with its diesel emissions cheating, and is expected to settle on a resolution of its 3.0-liter diesel vehicles in the US soon.

The award recognizes companies that turn customers into brand advocates through referral programs. In Tesla's current program, customers who buy a car using a referral link get $1,000 off the price of their car, while referring owners are awarded prizes including a signed Powerwall 2 and invitations to unveiling events. Referring owners are also entered into a drawing to win a Model S or Model X. "With a disdain for paid advertising, Tesla Motors is leading the trend of reaching new customers through existing ones," says Extole. The other finalists are Hanna Andersson and Ulta Beauty.
