THESE NEW BEETLES ARE ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC CARS. THE BEST SMALL CAR I'VE EVER DRIVEN. THEY FEEL LIKE A MID-SIZE CAR INSIDE; THEY'RE FUEL EFFICIENT WITHOUT BEING GUTLESS; THEY'RE SOLID; AND VOLKSWAGENS ARE THE MOST REASONABLY PRICED GERMAN CARS! I LIKE THEM SO MUCH THAT I BOUGHT 2 OF THEM. I ALSO OWN MINI COOPERS AND A FIAT 500. THE NEW 2012 STYLE BEETLE IS THE OVERALL BEST IN MY OPINION.
DESCRIPTION: 2012 VOLKSWAGEN BEETLE 2.5L AUTOMATIC. I PURCHASED THIS CAR NEW AT LEWISVILLE VOLKSWAGEN IN THE DALLAS AREA, MAY 3, 2012 AS A BRAND NEW CAR.
YES, CAR IS BLUETOOTH EQUIPPED
I IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWED MY LONG-STANDING TRADITION OF IMPROVING ON THE FACTORY BUILD.
SPECIFICALLY:
1) I TOOK THE BLACK FINISHED "HERITAGE" WHEELS (WHICH BY THE WAY ARE NOW NO LONGER AVAILABLE ON LATE '13s AND '14s) AND SENT THEM OUT TO BE TRIPLE CHROME PLATED. WHEN THEY GOT BACK I LIKED THE LOOK OF THE BASIC HERITAGE WHEEL, SO I FOUND A SUITABLE CENTER CAP FROM ANOTHER TYPE OF VW WHEEL, AND SHOW THE CAR THIS WAY. I DO HAVE THE LARGE CENTER CAPS AND TRIM RINGS. BUT, MY RATIONALE IS WHY PUT PLASTIC CHROME PLATED STUFF OVER CHROMED ALUMINUM WHEELS, PARTICULARLY WHEN THEY LOOK LIKE THIS!
2) INSTALLED RETRO WIDE-WHITEWALL RADIAL TIRES. THEY ARE THE "REAL" THING, NOT SOME BUFFED OR GRAFTED ON WHITEWALL. THEY'RE FROM AMERICAN CLASSICS OF COKER TIRE.
3) TOOK THE FLAT BLACK PLASTIC CENTER FRONT GRILLE, AND SIDE CORNERING LIGHT ASSEMBLIES (THE SIDE GRILLES) AND HAD THEM CHROME PLATED. NOT CHROME SPRAY PAINT, THESE ARE THE REAL THING. CHROME PLATED BY THE ONE COMPANY IN THE USA THAT'LL DO IT. MEGABUCKS!
4) FACTORY CHROME MIRROR CAPS WEREN'T AVAILABLE, NEITHER WERE CHROME DOOR HANDLES. THESE WERE ALSO CHROME PLATED. THEY'RE NOT STICK ON TOPPERS. THEY'RE THE REAL, VW THING. ONLY BETTER, 'CAUSE THEY'RE CHROME PLATED.
5) CHROME VW FACTORY EXHAUST FINISHERS;
6) CHROME "AIR SCOOPS" (AS A NOD TO THE ORIGINAL VW BEETLES)
7) CHROME VOLKSWAGEN SCRIPT AND CHROME BEETLE SCRIPT. EACH ONE OF THESE EMBLEMS IS $60
8) CAR ALSO HAS FACTORY MONSTER MATS, CARGO BLOCKS, CARGO COMPARTMENT MAT, FIRST AID KIT.
9) I HAD TO ADD THE FACTORY CENTER ARMREST BETWEEN THE SEATS; NON-TURBOS DIDN'T COME WITH IT; THAT COST $600.00!
10) CAR HAS "VIN ETCH" WHERE PARTS ARE ETCHED WITH THE VIN (ANTI-THEFT)
WHAT IT COST:
SELLING PRICE OF CAR: $22149.00
CHROME PLATING OF WHEELS: $1500.00
WIDE WHITEWALL TIRES: $1500.00
CHROME PLATING OF FRONT END PARTS AND MIRRORS/DOOR HANDLES: $2000.00
CHROME EMBLEMS: $260.00 CENTER ARMREST $600.00
THIS CAR COST $28,009.00 TO BUILD LIKE THIS.
I'LL SELL IT FOR $19,900.00
THAT'S $8,109.00 LESS THAN IT COST ME; AND JUST SIMPLY BECAUSE IT'S A 2012. THE CONDITION IS EVERY BIT AS "NEW" AS A 2014 ON YOUR DEALER'S FLOOR RIGHT NOW.
SO NO, I WON'T SELL IT FOR WHOLESALE BOOK. IT'S NOT A WHOLESALE PIECE; IT'S NOT A COMMON USED BEETLE. BLUEBOOK AVERAGES DON'T APPLY TO CUSTOMIZED CARS. THE PERSON WHO'LL BUY THIS CAR WILL UNDERSTAND THAT.
TERMS & CONDITIONS: YOU SHOULD READ IT SO THERE ARE NO MISUNDERSTANDINGS!
1) PRICE IS FOR THE CAR, AND DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY APPLICABLE TAXES, TITLE TRANSFER FEES, REGISTRATION OR LICENSE FEES.
2) VEHICLE IS SOLD STRICTLY "AS-IS" AND "WHERE-IS". I AM A PRIVATE PERSON SELLING HIS OWN PERSONAL VEHICLE. THIS VEHICLE STILL HAS A VALID FACTORY VOLKSWAGEN WARRANTY; THE REMAINDER OF 3 YR/ 36,000 MILES. DELIVERY DATE WAS 05/03/12; CURRENT MILES ARE 4,300. YOU CAN DO THE MATH. VW EXTENDED WARRANTIES ARE EASY TO BUY AND A GREAT THING; IF YOU WANT TO EXTEND THE WARRANTY AT A GOOD COST I CAN PUT YOU IN CHARGE WITH A NICE GUY AT THE VW DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM.
3) I WARRANT THE CAR HAS HAD ABSOLUTELY NO DAMAGE DURING MY OWNERSHIP OF IT. (REMEMBER IT WAS BOUGHT BRAND NEW). NO ACCIDENTS, HAIL, FLOOD, FIRE, ETC. THE CARFAX WILL TESTIFY TO THAT. BESIDES THAT STATEMENT, I MAKE NO GUARANTEE TO THE BUYER; THE FACTORY I STILL ON THE HOOK FOR THAT!
4) VEHICLE MUST BE PAID FOR WITHIN 7 DAYS (TOTAL DAYS, NOT BUSINESS DAYS) OF YOUR DECISION TO BUY-IT-NOW.
5) PAYMENT MUST BE BY BANK WIRE TRANSFER OR BANK CASHIER'S CHECK ON KNOWN BANK.
6) VW CREDIT HOLDS TITLE TO THE VEHICLE. SO HERE'S HOW IT WORKS; YOU'LL PAY FOR THE CAR; WHEN YOUR MONEY CLEARS MY BANK YOU TAKE THE CAR; WE'LL HAVE A NOTARIZED AGREEMENT WHICH STATES THAT YOU'LL GET THE TITLE AS SOON AS I HAVE RECEIVED IT FROM VW CREDIT. ALL LEGAL AND UPFRONT. ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT CALL ME. NEED A REFERENCE THAT I'M A PERSON OF INTEGRITY? NO PROBLEM. GLAD TO SUPPLY IT.
7) VEHICLE IS LOCATED AT HORSESHOE BAY, TEXAS. JUST ONE HOUR WEST OF AUSTIN IN BEAUTIFUL HIGHLAND LAKES AREA OF THE HILL COUNTRY. HORSESHOE BAY IS A WORLD-CLASS OUTDOOR RECREATION RESORT COMMUNITY. GREAT GOLF, TENNIS, BOATING. WE HAVE A MARRIOTT RESORT IN THIS SMALL TOWN OF 5000.
IF YOU WANT ME TO PERSONALLY DELIVER THE CAR, THAT'S NOT ENTIRELY OUT OF THE QUESTION; IT DEPENDS ON WHERE YOU LIVE AND WHAT I'D HAVE TO CHARGE YOU. VEHICLE WOULD OF COURSE HAVE TO BE PAID FOR FIRST, AND YOU WOULD HAVE TO INSURE IT ON YOUR POLICY. WE CAN TALK ABOUT DELIVERY IF NEED BE.
ONE FINAL NOTE: THERE ALWAYS SEEM TO BE SOME PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO FEEL IT'S THEIR BIRTHRIGHT TO COMMENT (UNSOLICITED) ON WHY THEY FEEL A SELLER'S PRICE IS TOO HIGH. TO THOSE FOLKS I SAY THIS; KEEP YOUR OPINIONS TO YOURSELF; I'VE BEEN IN THE CAR BUSINESS FOR 4 DECADES NOW AND........"I'VE HEARD IT ALL BEFORE". BOTTOM LINE IS, IT'S MY CAR, AND THE PRICE LISTED IS WHAT IT IS. IF YOU WANT TO PLAY WHOLESALER, GO GET YOUR DEALER'S LICENSE AND GO TO A WHOLESALE AUTO AUCTION. THIS IS A CAR THAT WILL BE SOLD ON A RETAIL BASIS.

Lamborghini and Bentley may hold off on SUVs so VW can conserve cash
Thu, 11 Oct 2012After surveying the European economic scene, Volkswagen may have decided now is not the time to launch utility vehicles with Bentley and Lamborghini badges. Bentley officials say they will continue to push for support for the EXP 9 F and Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelman has said planning for the Urus will continue until VW tells it to stop.
That decision could come on November 23, when VW's board will vote on the company's budget for equipment, factories and vehicles. With VW's sales slowing and the Euro economy slumping further, some industry watchers say the company is more likely to build its cash reserves than to introduce super-expensive luxury SUVs or crossovers.
"Such vehicles are anything but obligatory during a crisis," says Frankfurt-based Equinet AG analyst Tim Schuldt in a new Automotive News Europe story. "Delaying their launch would be no drama but help save costs."
To solve diesel problem, VW might need two fixes
Fri, Oct 2 2015Volkswagen says that a fix is on the way for its 11 million vehicles around the globe that are equipped with diesel engine software that can evade emissions tests. The problem might be far more complicated than simply creating a single solution for all of them, though. According to Automotive News citing Reuters, two remedies to cover different NOx-reducing systems could be necessary, and both potentially affect performance. Earlier examples of the EA 189 diesel engine used a lean NOx trap to reduce the harmful material coming from the tailpipe. According to experts in the Automotive News report, a software update might allow the engines to achieve compliance, but that could affect fuel economy. VW already tried this route once before the scandal came to light, but tests by the California Air Resources Board still showed the figures were too high. Later, some of the 2.0 TDI engines began using Selective Catalytic Reduction that reduced NOx by injecting a urea solution into the exhaust stream. According to Automotive News, a software update for this equipment might increase the amount of the substance used. Not only would that mean topping up the fluid more often, but there still could be some reduction in fuel economy. But, since the 2-liter, 4-cylinder TDI engine that sits inside the diesel vehicles first mentioned as being affected by the issue in the US don't have a urea treatment system, VW would need to install them into these cars. VW still hasn't officially outlined its solution (or solutions) to the emissions issue but is expected to soon. The automaker's long-term evasion of regulations with these diesel engines pumped vast quantities of additional NOx into the air. The substance is known to be linked with smog and acid rain. The US Department of Justice is already beginning an investigation into the company, and politicians are pushing for harsh punishments.
VW Jetta TDI Value Edition drops price of diesel ownership to $21,295*
Wed, 08 Jan 2014Getting a new diesel-powered car just got a bit easier. Volkswagen has announced a new Jetta TDI Value Edition for 2014 that trims over $2,000 off the starting price of a Jetta TDI, making the most affordable diesel-powered car in America even more so. Prices start at $21,295 (*plus $820 for destination) for a Value Edition with a six-speed manual transmission, while a six-speed dual-clutch automatic adds $1,100 to the price. For that money, owners will get 140 horsepower, 236 pound-feet of torque and 42 miles per gallon on the freeway.
Despite the lower price and being down on content versus the previous base Jetta TDI, the Value Edition does come quite well equipped, with standard heated cloth seats, a six-speaker stereo with a Media Device Interface, satellite radio, and one-touch, up-down power windows on all four doors. Customers will be giving up some notable stuff though, including tilt/telescopic steering, Bluetooth streaming audio, power seats and a multi-function steering wheel.
Still, if you're aching to get your hands on a new TDI, this is now the most affordable way to do it. We suspect having the lower MSRP will help the German manufacturer make even further diesel-powered inroads here in the States, a land where they cleared their decks of over 100,000 TDI models in 2013.
