Volkswagen Golf Gti 20th Anniversary Hatchback 2-d on 2040-cars
Corsicana, Texas, United States
2003 Volkswagen GTI 20th Anniversary Edition #1706 1 of only 1,000 in Black Magic Pearl color. 1 of only 4,000 20th Anniversary GTIs. After retiring from the Army early 2006 I bought this car as a retirement project. It was a low mileage rebuildable salvage vehicle that the original owner had hit the left front end hard enough to pop the two font airbags, bend the hood, left fender, front bumper, and cracked the bumper cover, radiator and radiator support. It was a fun project where I put the vehicle completely back to stock using all OEM replacements parts and had the repaired areas painted by a local shop. It was then Retitled with a Texas blue title with rebuilt comments and it turned out to a very fun, quick little car that was/is a joy to drive. 1.8 Turbo motor 6sp Manual Transmission Now in 2015 it is still a fun car and only has 62k miles and it runs and drives like it should. During the intervening years; -The car was bumped at a 4 way stop hard enough that it broke the left taillight, cracked the rear bumper cover, and damaged the rear hatch. I picked up some used OEM parts and had that same Body shop fix it up.

Andretti Autosport partners with Volkswagen for Global Rallycross season
Tue, 14 Jan 2014Michael Andretti and Volkswagen have both been involved in Global Rallycross for a couple of years, but not together. Andretti Motorsports Marketing organized the final round of the 2012 GRC series in Las Vegas, and there were rumors then that Andretti was going to get in. Around the same time there were news reports that Volkswagen was preparing a 600-hp Polo Mk5 to race in the SuperCar class; the photo above is racer Anton Marklund in his privateer Marklund Motorsports Polo at the 2013 X-Games round in Los Angeles.
Now it's official: Andretti Autosport will campaign the 2014 GRC season with VWs. That's all that's been said for now, Andretti being busy at the moment launching four entries for IndyCar, two for Indy Lights and two for Pro Mazda. We have a feeling we'll be seeing the MkVII Golf involved, but the cars and the driver lineup will be presented at the Chicago Auto Show on February 6.
VW pondering low-cost sub-brand for China?
Wed, 30 Jan 2013More detail is being sketched into the Volkswagen Group's plan to launch a low-cost brand for emerging markets. Late last year a German report quoted a VW rep saying that the brand has been interested in building a no-frills car, the kind that would challenge Dacia and Datsun, for a while. With both Proton and Suzuki effectively out of the partnership picture, a report in Reuters suggests VW could go straight to China, developing a car with its joint venture partners and building and selling it there.
Officially, company CEO Martin Winterkorn said the issue of a model for emerging markets would be decided this year but VW isn't any closer to confirming any kind of plan for a car in its portfolio underneath the Up!, remarking to Reuters about the China possibility, "That's an issue we're currently looking at."
Volkswagen shows off performance-ish Passat concept
Mon, 14 Jan 2013As 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.
