I bought this car as a gift for my wife for Christmas 2011 and it turns out she doesn't want to drive a 4 speed anymore and it just sits in my garage, so it's time to go. I bought the car out of Boise, Idaho and there are no rust issues that I could find. The floor pan has been replaced by a prior owner. I am not a VW guy, so I can't give you a lot of technical information. The car is a head turner and a blast to drive (especially with the top down), runs good, shifts good, idles smooth at a stop, non-smoker, and does not burn oil. I have numerous receipts for work that I had done before I would let my wife drive it, totaling $4,056. The brakes were gone through completely, shoes, pads, wheel cylinders, rotors, carburetor, ball joints, all new tires, new spare tire and wheel, new muffler, new drive axle seals, new antenna, new VW emblems front & rear, new air cleaner, etc.. The Ghia has a tachometer (in the dash), oil pressure and oil temperature gauges (under the dash). The car has always been stored in my garage which is temperature controlled. The car spends most of its time in the garage under its fitted cover so not many miles have been put on the car since I bought it a year and a half ago. This car is a driver (which is why I bought it) that you can take to the grocery store and not worry about parking it! The body has a few minor scratches and there is a small dent in the right front fender. I have posted a nice selection of pictures for your viewing and can send you pictures of any area you want to see more of, just send me an email through ebay that includes your email address and I will get you the shots you want and answer any questions you may have. The rear license plate was found at a swap meet and is period correct for 1971 in Washington state and is legal as I had it licensed as a classic car (as such does not have to be relicensed every year). I left the 1976 Centennial tab sticker on it because I thought it looked cool. For the legal stuff, an Ebay Auction is a legal binding contract, so please have all your finances in order prior to bidding. This car is being sold "as is and where is" so it is the responsibility of the buyer to pick the car up or make shipping arrangements. To the winning bidder a $500.00 deposit through Paypal is required at the close of the auction and full payment is to be made within 7 days unless other arrangements are made prior to that time. Payment will need to be Certified bank funds or bank wire transfer, or of course cash if so inclined, and all funds will have to clear our bank before the car and clear title will be released. Thanks for looking...and bid to win!!

VW, Suzuki mulling rekindling relationship in face of legal battle
Sat, 27 Jul 2013Volkswagen and Suzuki have been undergoing marriage counseling in a bid to avoid finalizing their nasty divorce. The blissful union has been troubled for some time, with Volkswagen claiming that it could affect operational decisions at Suzuki, and the Japanese brand's sniping and constant flirting with a certain Italian temptress causing rifts.
The matter first went to court in 2012, when Suzuki demanded VW get out, and leave its 19.9-percent stake in the Japanese brand in a box to the left. Now, Automotive News is reporting that the company will give the relationship one last shot, according to closed-door dealings between the two in London.
Still, it's understood that VW and Suzuki recognize the benefit of their alliance, and that it'd be in the best interests of the kids both parties to make things work. Spokespeople declined to comment to AN, but the newsmagazine spoke with Frank Biller, an analyst for LBBW in Stuttgart, who said, "Both companies stand to benefit if they can overcome the disagreements over leadership claims."

Volkswagen Group, BMW Z4 top Total Value Awards by Strategic Vision
Tue, 11 Dec 2012It was just nine months ago that Strategic Vision announced its 2011 Total Value Awards, but you don't have to wait until next year for the 2012 awards. The Volkswagen Group keeps its lead as the number one brand, with seven products taking top category spots: Golf, Jetta Wagon, CC, Eos and Audi A3 Wagon, Q5 and Q7. Strategic Vision says "true innovation" - "rich and impactful, intuitive, motivational, in-depth and is able to trigger description by the user in great specificity" - is the open secret of the brands with the strongest showings. Results are culled from 77,153 owners covering more than 350 new cars bought between September of 2011 and 2012 ranked in the Total Value Index (TVI).
Other notable winners are Hyundai-Kia following VW in the brand category and having the Hyundai Elantra and Kia Sorento among category winners, the BMW Z4 taking the premium roadster category and the highest overall score of any vehicle, the Chevrolet Volt continuing to gather silverware in the Special Category, nabbing the second-highest score of all and representative of "nearly perfect innovation," and Chrysler and Dodge being most improved.
Check out the press release below for your day's dose of jargon and all the winners.
