Hello!  Up for sale is my 2013 VW Passat SE TDI.  I am the original owner and purchased it in January of 2013 as my primary driver.  I selected the Passat TDI based upon previous experience with a Jetta TDI I owned.  The build quality and fuel efficiency of the TDI models is legendary.  In this Passat, I have seen Hwy mileage as high as 46mpg and a minimum of 35mpg it heavy stop and go city driving.  I average about 700 miles per tank.  Even with the higher price of diesel over gasoline, you will see a lower cost per mile than the Accord, Maxima, Camry, or any other car in its class.  The 2 liter Engine provides 140hp and 236 lbs-ft of torque, which results in a surprisingly quick ride.  You will have no trouble passing traffic when needed.  The added option of the 18” wheels and the 6 speed DSG transmission make for a sporty, well handling package.  I drove the Blue Ridge Parkway in last fall and was very surprised by the Passat’s ability to carve the curves.  It offers a driving experience that none of its competitors can match.

It currently has 25,111 miles on it and has only ever been serviced by the dealer I purchased it from, Owens Murphy VW in Little Rock.  The next service, due at 30,000 miles, is included with the car.  It has been garage kept, and regularly detailed.  There are no major defects, only the two scratches that are shown in the pictures.  The one on the passenger door happened when my mountain bike fell over in the garage, and the one under the left headlight occurred when a piece of wood fell off the back of an 18 wheeler and bounced off the roadway.  The car has never been involved in an accident in any capacity and is in excellent condition aside from the aforementioned blemishes.  It was last detailed a few months ago and has been in the garage since then, as I have been driving another vehicle.  I drive it at least once a week to keep the battery charged and ready to go.  I have decided to sell it for two reasons.  I am working on getting back down to one vehicle before my next job move, and I got a Siberian Husky and refuse to let her ride in it for fear of damaging the interior.  The car just does not suit my life anymore. 

The windows were tinted by Premier Tints with their top level Ceramic tint.  It has 15% on the rear window, 25% on the side windows, and 50% on the front window.  I always have my cars tinted all the way around as it makes the biggest difference for driver comfort and heat control.  This tint job was a $390 addition to the car and is worth the money.

The factory options over the standard SE trim level includes:

  • ·         18” alloy wheels with all-season tires
  • ·         V-Tex Leatherette seats
  • ·         Sirius XM satellite radio
  • ·         Bluetooth input
  • ·         Aux input
  • ·         Media Device Interface (MDI) with iPod input/control
  • ·         Power tilt & Sliding Sunroof w/Sun-screen
  • ·         Radio Navigation system RNS-315 w/color touchscreen
The car is located in the Little Rock area, and is available for viewing if you wish.  Please give me some notice and I will do my best to accommodate your time line.  I have it financed, so the title can only be delivered after making payoff and clearing the loan.  Buyer is responsible for pick up, but I will help with reasonable circumstances.  Please do not hesitate to send questions and offers my way at Five Zero One, Seven Seven Two, Six One Zero Nine.

Thank you for your time.

North American production of foreign marques to jump in 2014

Sun, 23 Dec 2012

Wards Auto has released its North American Light Vehicle Production Forecast for 2014, and the report predicts foreign manufacturers will increase production on the continent some 3.9 percent by 2014. If accurate, that should see 123,000 additional cars, trucks and vans produced in North America, swelling the total number of units produced both by domestic and foreign manufacturers to 16.9 million light vehicles from a projected 15.6 million in 2013. Much of the increase can be attributed to the fact that Toyota intends to produce another car at its Blue Springs, MS plant as well as a new Lexus model at its Georgetown, KY facility in a year's time.
Likewise, Volkswagen intends to move production of a currently imported model to its plant in Puebla, Mexico. Daimler, Honda, Nissan and Mazda also plan to build additional models on North American soil for the first time. Around two-thirds of the new North American manufacturing will take place in Mexico, helping the country soak up a full 20 percent of the content's automotive production for the first time.

Volkswagen might cut 40 models across brands to save cash

Mon, Jun 20 2016

Volkswagen once set out to pass Toyota and General Motors and become the largest automaker in the world. Following months of fallout from the diesel emissions scandal, the manufacturer is rumored to be dropping around 40 models from its company-wide lineup. According to German business and finance publication Handelsblatt, the Volkswagen Group is looking to slim down and remove a number of low-volume vehicles from various lineups. The company currently sells around 340 models across brands that include Audi, Lamborghini, and Bentley. Volkswagen is refusing to comment, but Handelsblatt claims to have sources within the company. Last week, Volkswagen Group CEO Matthias Muller announced a new strategy for the company that includes a major focus on electric vehicles and new technology services. During his announcement, Muller said the company would be cutting a number of models, but at the time no numbers, models, or brands were discussed. Despite comments to the contrary, rumors have persisted since late last year that Volkswagen was looking to sell commercial truck and bus manufacturer MAN. Volkswagen owns truck and bus manufacturer Scania, so even if it dropped MAN, the company would still have a foothold within the bus and truck market. There is also talk of the company selling Italian motorcycle manufacturer Ducati, which Volkswagen acquired via Audi in 2012. The company's image has taken a huge hit in the wake of the diesel scandal. Volkswagen has set aside cash in order to pay fines and may be looking to sell these several subsidiaries and cut low-volume models in order offset the costs. Despite the scandal, the company led worldwide sales in the first quarter of 2016. The same was true in 2015, but sales tanked at the end of the year following the diesel revelations.

Peugeot will prove it doesn't offer cheater diesels

Thu, Oct 29 2015

Our diesels are clean, really. That's the message from French automaker PSA/Peugeot-Citroen as it plans to go on the offensive in response to Volkswagen's diesel-emissions scandal. PSA will go out of its way to prove its diesels are as clean as advertised. The company is looking at disclosing "real-world" fuel-economy statistics as soon as next spring and will use an independent entity to vet the numbers, Automotive News Europe says, citing comments that PSA/Peugeot-Citroen financial chief Jean-Baptiste de Chatillon made to reporters this week. Such efforts may be vital, since roughly two-thirds of the vehicles Peugeot-Citroen sells in Europe are powered by a diesel engine. Last month, VW admitted that as many as 11 million of its diesel-powered vehicles were programmed with software designed to cheat emissions-testing systems. The news shook up the industry, especially companies that sell a good chunk of diesels. The EU itself may start instituting "real world" fuel-economy and emissions testing as soon as 2017. French regulators have said they may eliminate diesel-fuel subsidies that currently make diesel fuel cheaper to customers than gas. That adjustment may occur as soon as next year, since it's been pushed up in response to the VW scandal. Peugeot-Citron continues to reiterate that it has never installed software that was designed to cheat emissions-testing systems. Additionally, the automaker was more than a decade ahead of European Union mandates for engine components designed to cut soot emissions, so the company is hoping its track record makes a difference. It wants to be perfectly clear about that.
