Hey there, I have for sale my 2009 VW GTI. Its tornado red with the interlagos interior, 6-speed manual transmission. The car currently has 63,3xx miles and will be going up since this car is my daily driver. Its mostly stock with the exception of a Unitronic Stage 1 tune, BSH Torque arm insert, Audi S3 short shit kit and  ECS tuning smoked side markers on the front in place of the amber ones. I have the original ones available if you prefer those. Comes with the monster mats as shown, but  I also have the original ones as well. Comes complete with all books and manuals. All tools and original spare tire as well. interior is in good shape with typical wear marks on  the drivers seat and armrests. I dont smoke or eat in the car so its in very good condition. The only thing that doesnt work is the cd player, reason being a cd got stuck in it and displays "cd error" when selecting. All other features of the radio work and even has an aux input in the dash so you can listen to MP3 or stream audio if you wish. Car also has heated seats.  The reason im selling is because after 3 years I want to get back into a BMW. Its been a great car but its time to move into something else.

Now time for a little history about this car. I bought it in November 2010 with 24,500 miles on the odometer. Apparently, this car was involved in an accident prior to me purchasing it. I inspected it personally before buying on a lift and could not find any evidence of a repair. The accident may have been very minor or whoever did the job did a very good repair. There is no frame damage, no salvage or rebuilt title either. the airbags were never deployed according to carfax so im not sure, they may have screwed up on their end.  I have owned the car for 3 years and never gave me any issues or left me stranded. There are no misaligned hood gaps or body panels, no overspray anywhere on the car. When I tell people this they cant believe it was ever in an accident.  I have all records since my purchase and receipts. I am a professional technician myself and performed all repairs myself. I have changed the oil every 5,000 miles with OEM VW filters and the recommended Castrol Syntec oil. At 50k I replaced the spark plugs, fuel and cabin filters and replaced the cabin air filter. The transmission shifts smooth and the clutch does not slip in any gear. I try to be as honest as I can in my descriptions since I understand some people may be coming from several hours away and nothing is more disappointing than seeing a car that has been misrepresented. if you are expecting a car with a perfect body then you will be disappointed since it does have typical rock chips,  scratches and a few small dings  for a daily driven car with 63k, but no huge dents or broken headlights or cracked foglights. The car is in very good shape and I think anyone who buys it will be very happy. I just inspected the car and the brakes are still at 9/32 front and 5/32 rear so those are still good for a while. The only thing I can see this car needing in the future are 4 tires since they are really getting worn. Around 5/32 on all them. I also have a set of Nokian RG2s mounted on a set of 16'' Audi A4 wheels that I run during the winter. They are literally brand new and have less than 5,000 miles on them which are awesome and really transform the car in the snow. I also have another OEM VW oil filter I will include as well.  I can include these in the sale if you are interested.  Again, if you are looking for a mechanically sound, adult driven GTI that is mostly stock then this is the one. Any more questions feel free to contact me at 703-727-6684. I live about 45 minutes outside of Philadelphia. Trying to get $13k but will take any reasonable offer.

VW ready to spend $25B on at least 6 EVs in China by 2018

Tue, Apr 22 2014

Standing next to the lovely GTE plug-in hybrid during the Beijing Motor Show, VW CEO Martin Winterkorn announced a renewed, $25-billion focus for the German automaker on electric mobility in China. EVs + China is not a new equation for VW (see here and here and here), but the time is now for the plan to come together, apparently. As Winterkorn said in a statement (available below), "We are launching the biggest initiative for e-mobility in China's automotive history." "We are launching the biggest initiative for e-mobility in China's automotive history" – Martin Winterkorn With the Porsche Panamera S E-hybrid already in showrooms, the next tip of the spear is made up of the all-electric e-up! and e-Golf, both of which are due later this year. In 2015, the Audi A3 e-tron and Golf GTE will arrive. In 2016, there will be two exclusive-to-China plug-in hybrid vehicles in showrooms: a A6 PHEV and a "new mid-size limousine from the Volkswagen brand." VW Group may even throw in the Bentley Hybrid Concept for good measure. The China-only models will be built in the country and VW is investing over $25 billion between now and 2018, creating an expected 20,000 jobs. VOLKSWAGEN GROUP STARTS ELECTRO-MOBILITY CAMPAIGN IN CHINA CEO Prof. Dr. Winterkorn: "We are launching the biggest initiative for e-mobility in China's automotive history." Campaign gets underway with electric up!1 and e-Golf2 Over ˆ18 billion to be spent on new vehicles, technologies and plants up to 2018 Over 500,000 employees at more than 3,600 dealerships in 2018 Vehicle deliveries in China targeted to top 3.5 million for first time in 2014 Wolfsburg / Beijing, April 22, 2014: "The Volkswagen Group is once again assuming a pioneering role in China and launching the biggest initiative for e-mobility in China's automotive history," Prof. Dr. Martin Winterkorn, CEO of Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft, announced at the Auto China motor show in Beijing. The initiative gets underway with the launch this year of the Volkswagen brand's electric up!1 and e-Golf2 models. While the Porsche Panamera S E-hybrid3 is already in the showrooms in China, the Group will be launching two further innovative plug-in hybrid vehicles there next year with the Audi A3 e-tron4 and the Golf GTE5.

Volkswagen shows off performance-ish Passat concept

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

As part of its 2013 Detroit Auto Show debut package, Volkswagen has rolled out a sportier version of the Passat sedan, though it's strictly conceptual for now. A small dose of go-fast visuals have been added to the handsome Volkswagen, including 19-inch wheels, carbon-capped mirrors, an advanced front lighting system, LED taillamps and dual exhaust. Some carbon bits and upgraded leather are found inside the cabin, as well.
But the real performance chops come in the form of a 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that sends 250 horsepower to the Passat's front wheels via a six-speed automatic transmission. That's a good boost in power over the 170 hp of the base 2.5-liter inline-five, but not quite as potent as the 3.6-liter VR6. A lowered sport suspension and revised electronic steering are also on hand, making things slightly more involving out on the road... we assume.
It's not quite the performance concept we were hoping for, but a more enthusiastic Passat isn't necessarily a bad thing. Scroll down for the press release.

VW's Winterkorn tells 20,000 staffers of big cost-cutting plans

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

During a gathering of 20,000 Volkswagen Group employees at company headquarters in Wolfsburg, Germany on Wednesday, CEO Martin Winterkorn dropped a bombshell. The boss stated that the automaker isn't operating efficiently enough and admitted the company needs to radically start cutting back to raise its profit margins. To right the ship, Winterkorn has proposed killing off less profitable models and spending less on research and development.
According to Reuters, Winterkorn wants to raise the VW brand's profit margin from about 2.9 percent in 2013 to a target of 6 percent. To make that possible, his plan amounts to increasing cost cutting until Volkswagen reaches about 5 billion euros ($6.7 billion) per year to get things back in order. "Over the short-term, we urgently need more efficiency and higher profit," the CEO said during his speech, according to Reuters.
However, Winterkorn can't make these decisions unilaterally. Volkswagen's works council also has a seat on the supervisory board to represent laborers, and it isn't likely to take the proposed cuts sitting down.
