2007 Volkswagen Gti Low Miles! Custom Leather Interior on 2040-cars
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States
|
Sad to sell my one of a kind VW GTI but I wont be driving it while away on military orders. I am the second owner, I bought it with 9,000 miles in spring, 2012. Apparently the original owner had several vehicles and kept this one in the garage for the majority of the time. It still has very low mileage (40,XXX) but is my daily driver for now and will go up some. It has a beautifully done white leather with red trim/embroidery that has no rips or stains, just some minor wear on driver's seat. The turbocharged engine runs strong, getting great gas mileage but still very quick on the road helped out by an APR stage 1 tune. I have matching white leather floormats and a set of black rubber mats in case you're like me and often have muddy feet. Also, a matching white leather privacy cover in the trunk. The seats were surprisingly not difficult to keep clean and are nice because it is a leather that wont burn your butt after sitting in the sun. The paint is glossy all around and there is no rust. Suspension is upgraded to Eibach springs that lower the car about an inch and ride much nicer in my opinion. There is an Evolution Motorsports intake. Brakes and tires have plenty of life. Clutch is good. Power locks, windows, and sunroof all work. All speakers sound good, 6-disk cd changer works perfectly. There is also a flip-down monitor behind the sunroof that can be linked to an aftermarket headunit to play DVD's if you desire. It could use a new temperature sensor (cost of parts and labor were estimated to be $151) and repair on 3/4inch crack in windshield. Never been in an accident or had airbags deploy but it was bumped while parked in front of my apartment resulting in a basketball-sized dent that I had professionally repaired by a recognized body shop in Pittsburgh. It was well-maintained, never raced, and only ran on 93 fuel. Contact me at 4one2-443-8zero47 before making an offer on eBay, my name is Brett. It is for sale locally also.

Porsche 911 with VW turbodiesel prepares for LeMons assault
Fri, 21 Mar 2014LeMons racing is a wonderful example that setting limits can actually breed creativity. The series mandates that all entries must cost $500, not counting safety equipment, and that cap forces teams to be ingenious in how they build a racecar. Take for example this diesel-powered Porsche 911, which its creators have dubbed Ferkel the Nein-11, that will be racing in the Sears Pointless race this weekend in Sonoma, California.
This Frankenstein combines a 911 chassis that was originally bought just for its European powertrain and a Volkswagen TDI diesel engine mounted in the rear. After deciding the shell could still be of some use, the team decided to go racing. "We began brainstorming what replacement drivetrain to use for maximum offense and there was really only one answer: a diesel," said Philipp von Weitershausen, one of the team captains, to Jalopnik. They bought a 1998 Jetta TDI on the cheap and started figuring out a way to hack the engine into the bay. To pay respect to the donor, the VW's trunk was highly modified (and drilled) and grafted onto the back of Ferkel.
This team isn't a newcomer to LeMons. Its last car was a classic VW Beetle with a Subaru engine and dual controls, named Ferdinand the Bug, which could be driven from the left or right side. It's quite a sight.
Next Volkswagen Golf R to get 286 horsepower?
Tue, 12 Feb 2013The seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf hasn't launched in the United States just yet, but we're already setting our sights on the range-topping R model. According to Autocar, the next Golf R will be more powerful than the current version, producing 268 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, making it the most powerful production Golf ever.
Powering the new Golf R will be a further evolution of Volkswagen's well-liked 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four, and when mated to a six-speed dual-clutch transmission, the hotter hatch will reportedly be able to sprint to 62 miles per hour in five seconds flat. That's over half a second quicker than the current US-spec model.
Other updates for the new Golf R include the addition of VW's Haldex 5 all-wheel-drive system found in the latest iteration of 4Motion. Furthermore, thanks to the use of lightweight materials, the new R is expected to weigh in around 2,650 pounds - that's a massive 675 pounds less than the current US-spec car. The exhaust has reportedly been reworked to provide more aural delight, as well.
UAW angered over VW workers getting right to defend anti-union vote
Thu, 13 Mar 2014The United Auto Workers have called a decision by the National Labor Relations Board allowing anti-UAW employees at the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga the right to defend voting down unionization at the plant "an outrage."
You'll recall that the union was defeated by a vote of 712 to 626 in a contentious February election. The UAW claims the outcome was unfairly swayed by pro-business, anti-union forces, including Senator Bob Corker and political advocate Grover Norquist.
This new decision by the NLRB essentially gives workers backed by the anti-UAW National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation and Southern Momentum a formal voice in the impending hearing on the UAW's appeal of the vote.
