2011 Volkswagen Golf Tdi Hatchback 4-door, Malone Tune Pd Exhaust Ecs Suspension on 2040-cars
Rockford, Michigan, United States
2011 VW Golf TDI 4dr 6sp MT Tornado Red price is set at market value for the base car plus half of the parts only cost. If you want the fastest TDI out there with better handling than a GTI, this is it. 60+ MPG Highway, 40+ around town. I have several cars, and this has been one of my favorites: unstoppable torque, great handling, and the best gas mileage of anything I have ever owned. But its time to make room. There isn’t anything I would change about this car. You can spend $ 35k+ to build your own, or take this one home for a lot less. The new common rail 2.0 is a great engine, but the stock intake and exhaust chokes these vehicles robbing them of power and efficiency. So the week after I took delivery of it, I worked with Performance Diesel and Malone tuning to install the best breathing and best programmed system available. Malone’s website lists 184 bhp and 333 lb-ft torque, and I don’t doubt it for a second. In fact, the numbers for this car are probably better because of the custom stainless exhaust. The fuel economy is better than stock by over 20% city and highway. The sound is perfect. Not loud, but throaty when full throttle. And you can hear the turbo whistle a little at idle. Its been a great daily driver and family trip car, no complaints whatsoever. The tucked away hitch works great for a bicycle rack. The other great thing about this car is the suspension and handling. It has a full KWV2 coil-over and sway bar setup from ECS Tuning, so it handles better than any GTI could ever dream of – and gets 2X the gas mileage. The height shown in the pictures is at the lowest setting possible, it can be adjusted about 3” higher if you want, and the shocks are adjustable too. I have like new Goodyear Ultra Grip Ice snow tires mounted on 16” black steelies if you want them for $ 450. All stock parts are included if you want to return the car to its original configuration. Waxed and in a heated garage with owners manual, service history, both keys, etc. Clear title. Dealer serviced with synthetic oil only, suspension adjustment and alignment by independent VW shop. Standard factory items: Satellite radio, Bluetooth, heated seats, sunroof, rubber TDI mats, etc. Additions

2015 Volkswagen GTI [w/video]
Fri, 26 Apr 2013The 911 Of Hot Hatches Takes The Compact Game To New Levels
North American car buyers get a bit of a slap in the face when it comes to delivery schedules for new the Volkswagen Golf and pumped-up GTI models. We'll just repeat the old chestnut: It's worth the wait... even though it still stinks. This time around, Western Europe is taking deliveries of the new Golf as we speak, and GTI deliveries start between May and July. North America doesn't get the Mk7 Golf or GTI until about July of 2014.
So we approached our first drive of the new GTI with this chip on our shoulder: "You're making us wait? Well, then at least give us the exact car we'll be able to buy. No compromises, mein freund." And so it was that we extracted nearly all of our drive impressions from behind the wheel of what, for the United States, will technically be a model year 2015 two-door Volkswagen Golf GTI Performance with the standard six-speed manual.
VW previews retouched 2014 Touareg for Beijing
Wed, 16 Apr 2014Volkswagen is in New York this week showing off its new Jetta and Golf TDI SportWagen concept. But in less than a week, the German automaker will be off to China for the Beijing Motor Show, where it will showcase the revised Touareg you see here.
A subtle update on the Touareg that's been on the market in its current form for four years now, the facelifted model features reworked styling front and rear, an updated interior and a host of new technologies to keep it current in the highly competitive SUV market. Among those new features are larger bi-xenon headlights, coasting function, Google Maps integration and a post-collision braking system designed to prevent a second crash.
VW will offer the new Touareg with a variety of engines around the world, but in North America it'll carry over the same six-cylinder powertrain options as the outgoing model: a 3.6-liter V6 with 280 horsepower, a 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6 with 240 hp (though torque isn't listed, we'd expect around 406 pound-feet, same as last year) and a hybrid that marries a 3.0-liter supercharged V6 to an electric motor that combine to deliver 380 hp.
Take a listen to the Volkswagen ID 3 and Koenigsegg Jesko
Sun, Dec 15 2019What could better demonstrate our diametric vehicular future than sound clips of the Volkswagen ID 3 and the Koenigsegg Jesko? Battery-electric vehicles don't make enough noise on their own, so VW partnered with composer Leslie Mandoki for the legally-mandated Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (AVAS) that warns pedestrians and cyclists of the EV's presence. Mandoki — a German-Hungarian who once played drums in a Euro disco band called Dschinghis Khan — was asked to come up with a sound for the ID 3 that VW said "defines its identity," "radiates safety and the promise of effortless mobility," and that "must also impress with its unique character." The definition of the ID 3's single-motor, 201-horsepower character is this: Occupants and people around the hatch can hear the sound as the car accelerates to 18.6 mph, and when reversing. At higher speeds, the sound of wind resistance and tire noise takes over. As our library of AVAS tones grows, it's clear that EVs will provide a soundscape as varied as that of internal combustion engines. Here, for instance, is the industrial thrum used as the Karma Revero GT's pedestrian warning: And here is the sci-fi soaring from the BMW Vision M Next, as composed by Hans Zimmer: At the other end of the aural chamber, we have the Koenigsegg Jesko. In this case, the composer is a 5.0-liter twin-turbo V8 running on a bio-ethanol E85 blend that's almost suitable for IndyCar, powering the engine up to 1,600 horsepower. Output on pump gas will be 'only' 1,281 hp. The Swedish automaker released a clip of the exhaust note of a car in progress inside the Angelhom factory. Here's what we can look forward to: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. All these sounds have a place at the table, even if we'd prefer Karma booked some time with a producer and an Autotune session. To paraphrase Sesame Street, though, one of these sounds is definitely not like the other.
