We achieve this by providing you with all of the information YOU need to make a comfortable decision, and hopefully proceeding to your investment, a vehicle! We strive for A+ satisfaction. We do not want to waste anyone’s time, and definitely don’t want to mislead you.

EQUIPPED WITH A VIPER ALARM AND REMOTE START! This beautiful 2004 Volkswagen New Beetle GL is now available for you to buy! Don’t miss your chance to own a good looking, solid Beetle convertible. I personally drove this vehicle for over an hour just to make sure the motor and transmission is solid with no issues. INTERIOR: The remote start works at just the press of a button. The original key fob also works with the alarm remote. The black leather interior is all in great shape. The manual top is very easy to put up and down. The aftermarket Kenwood radio sounds great and there is an auxiliary port so you can listen to any device. The heat works great and the a/c is cold. ALL OF THE WINDOWS WORK, and so does everything else! There are no indications of any leaks and there are no odors in this stylish Beetle! EXTERIOR: The body is in good shape. It looks as if the car was garage kept. The top has no signs of dry rot and the seams are all in great shape. There are a few things that are hard to notice, there is a flaw on the rear driver side bumper. The clear coat in that area has some issues as if it was bumped up against. The front bumper has minor issues on the very bottom, probably caused from scraping. This can be fixed professionally for a few hundred dollars if you wanted it perfect. Other than a few flaws that are hard to notice, this is a great vehicle. The tires have plenty of tread left on them. MOTOR/HANDLING: The Beetle starts right up and idles with no issues or sounds. The car goes right into gear with no jerking. The acceleration is very responsive and the brakes work great at any speed with no wobble or vibration. The transmission shifts through every gear with no hesitation, every time. I drove over an hour just to make sure there was nothing wrong. The downshifting is also smooth and responsive. The suspension feels great and it does a great job absorbing all the imperfections and making a quiet ride. The powered steering makes tight turns very easy and it is also smooth. There isn’t any pinging when making very tight turns. This vehicle feels very reliable and I would drive it anywhere, any distance. The airbag light is the only issue. Volkswagen is notorious for this. Almost every time the light is on because of a bad connection with a sensor, and usually the sensor is bad. The sensor is under $100 and the labor is very cheap. We can have it looked into and fixed for you prior to delivery, if you were interested. This is one of the few solid Volkswagen Beetles for sale. This generation of the Volkswagen Beetle is notorious for having issues with the transmission and windows not working properly etc. I wanted to be sure this one was defect free! A car is as good as its owner. The previous owner obviously cared for this Beetle and maintained it very well. There are receipts/records in the glove box. The radio, alarm, and receipts are all good signs of pride in the vehicle, and that shows that maintenance was performed regularly.
NADA.com appraises this vehicle for $6,625 at suggested retail. The reserve is set nowhere near that. If you are interested in this vehicle and would like to ‘BUY IT NOW’ please feel free to contact me. Thank you so much for looking and good luck with the bidding. -Daryl

VW recalls 25k Jettas over low-beam headlight issue
Wed, Dec 31 2014Volkswagen has discovered an issue with the headlamps on its latest Jetta and is issuing a recall notice in conjunction with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to correct the issue. The problem revolves around the headlight control module, which has been found in certain instances to switch off the low-beam headlights when the high beams are turned on. Needless to say, that could result in insufficient illumination in the dark, so VW is moving to update the module's software. The issue only affects the new 2015 Jetta – specifically those manufactured between July 11, 2014 (which just happens to be this writer's birthday, thank you very much) and November 13, 2014. All in all, the Volkswagen Group of America estimates that encompasses 25,007 units in the United States, the owners of which can expect to hear from their dealers in the new year. RECALL Subject : Insufficient Headlight Output Report Receipt Date: DEC 15, 2014 NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V790000 Component(s): EXTERIOR LIGHTING Potential Number of Units Affected: 25,007 All Products Associated with this Recall close VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2015 Manufacturer: Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. SUMMARY: Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Volkswagen) is recalling certain model year 2015 Jetta vehicles manufactured July 11, 2014, to November 13, 2014. Due to incorrect software within the headlight control module, the low beam headlights may turn off when high beam lights are turned on. As a result, the light output from the headlights may be insufficient. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 108. "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment." CONSEQUENCE: Insufficient headlight output may increase the risk of a crash. REMEDY: Volkswagen will notify owners, and dealers will update the headlight control module software, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin in January 2015. Owners may contact Volkswagen customer service at 1-800-893-5298. Volkswagen's number for this recall is 57F6. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
Volkswagen Golf R 400 Concept is a 201-mph hot hatch
Sun, 20 Apr 2014This, 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 2019FRANKFURT, 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.
