I am the SECOND OWNER of this beautiful W8 wagon. First owner was a middle aged woman who dealer serviced it all of its life. I bought it earlier this year completely stock. Not even tinted. The car has always been pampered. ZERO mechanical issues!! Car runs fantastic, I use it every day, and would not hesitate to drive cross country and back 100x. To be honest, I absolutely LOVE this car. I just have a few too many cars right now, and need to clear a few out...


This car is a lot more Audi than it is VW. Its bigger than an A4, with almost as much space & rear leg room as my A6. Definitely more than my old A4. Its much better equipped than even other Passats from the same years. The 4motion system is exactly the same as the Audi Quattro system. It is rear-wheel biased, full time, all wheel drive. Not like the newer VW 4motion system, which is the Haldex design. The Haldex awd is front wheel drive, and power is electronically sent to the rear wheels when the front wheels begin to slip. A very unpredictable and inferior design to the Quattro based system in this car. The suspension is also different from 4 & 6 cylinder Passats of the generation. It is the same part #s as the A6. The W8 model also has additional bracing & welding, which you can really feel by how solid this car is. The brakes are the HP2 321mm setup, from the factory, which is the same as the B5 Audi S4 and the A6 2.7T. The rears are also larger 269mm. Even larger than the S4's 255mm. The W8 engine is incredibly smooth and powerful (270hp/273tq) at all revs, and makes an astonishing sound.


W8 specific features- Bi-Xenon HID headlights (W8 only), heated leather with power & memory, Monsoon stereo with 8 speakers, projector fog lights with yellow Lamin-X, power moonroof, 12v ports in hatch, dual exhaust with quad tips stock, chrome roof rails, wood interior trim, auto-dim rear view mirror, and others.


Never hit, body is all original and it GREAT shape for its age! All panels line up straight and clean. One very small dent by passenger wheel well, seen in pics. Small scratch on hood by pass headlight. Some minor parking dimples on rear bumper from previous owner. All mods & replaced parts listed are less than 3k miles ago. ST Coilovers with less than 2k miles, followed by fresh alignment within spec! No rubbing at all. Rear mufflers replaced with Magnaflows & stainless quad tips slightly bigger than factory. I still have the factory sections with stock mufflers & tips in great condition. I will include these free upon request. The Magnaflow setup really sets that INCREDIBLE W8 sound free!! It seriously sounds like a Ferrari meets a VR6 meets a conventional V8. Turns a lot of heads when a sound like that comes from a wagon!

Fresh oil change 750 miles ago with Mobil 1 European formula & Bosch filter. New front drivers axle. New front upper control arms. New rear brake pads & resurfaced rotors. Tints are also only a few months old, 35% all around.

The height of the car is fully adjustable if you wish it was a different height. It can go significantly lower or higher than the photos. For those not familiar with coilover suspensions..

The car will come with factory wheels, shown in one of the photos. The 17x8 C5 A6 4.2 wheels are *NOT* included. All other mods & parts listed, and as seen in photos, are included. Factory W8 wheels with good all seasons are included in the sale of the vehicle.

Test drives or inspections are welcome, but no joyriding or tire kickers. Please do not hesitate to message me with any questions you may have. Pickup is preferred. If you need to ship the car, that is your responsibility to arrange, but I will accomodate however I can..

Volkswagen says goodbye to Eos, Routan in 2015 updates

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

Usually automakers announce changes to their lineup individually on a vehicle-by-vehicle basis, but sometimes it all comes at once - especially when the changes are ones we either expected or might not otherwise notice. That's the path Volkswagen has gone with changes to its US lineup for 2015.
The biggest change is what we already knew: that the new Golf arrives for the 2015 model year, bringing with it the new GTI, Golf R, e-Golf and Golf SportWagen (to replace the previous Jetta wagon). But there are some new details as well.
For starters, Volkswagen has finally confirmed that both the Eos and the Routan - both long rumored to be on their way out - will be exiting this year. The Eos hardtop convertible, pictured above, will linger for one last year, its Sport trim replaced by a new Final Edition with 18-inch wheels, two-tone leather interior and enhanced equipment.

11M VW diesels affected, Porsche and Audi under investigation

Tue, Sep 22 2015

Volkswagen's diesel scandal is growing exponentially larger. In a new statement, the company admits that 11 million vehicles worldwide might be equipped with software capable of evading emissions testing. In addition, the Environmental Protection Agency is beginning an investigation into the 3.0-liter V6 in Audi models and the Porsche Cayenne in the US, according to The Detroit News. The automaker claims that from its investigation so far, the "relevant engine management software is also installed in other Volkswagen Group vehicles with diesel engines." However, the company finds that the "noticeable deviation" in test results and real-world numbers only relates to the Type EA 189 powerplant. That still leaves 11 million vehicles potentially skirting emissions rules, though. Governments around the world have started taking a closer look into the company, too. In the US, the EPA has begun testing VW's V6 diesel because "they were certified well before we knew what we know now," Christopher Grundler, director of the EPA's Office of Transportation and Air Quality, said to The Detroit News. The agency has started checking diesels from other automakers to make sure they're meeting the rules, as well. Germany, the European Union, and South Korea have instituted similar investigations. In response, VW is setting aside 6.5 billion euros ($7.25 billion at current rates) to cover servicing all of these diesels. The company admits that the figure might have to be adjusted depending on what happens next. The money is being deducted from its third-quarter earnings. Related Video: VOLKSWAGEN AG HAS ISSUED THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT: Sep 22, 2015 Volkswagen is working at full speed to clarify irregularities concerning a particular software used in diesel engines. New vehicles from the Volkswagen Group with EU 6 diesel engines currently available in the European Union comply with legal requirements and environmental standards. The software in question does not affect handling, consumption or emissions. This gives clarity to customers and dealers. Further internal investigations conducted to date have established that the relevant engine management software is also installed in other Volkswagen Group vehicles with diesel engines. For the majority of these engines the software does not have any effect. Discrepancies relate to vehicles with Type EA 189 engines, involving some eleven million vehicles worldwide.

World Car Of The Year down to its final four

Wed, 13 Mar 2013


Judges for the World Car of the Year Award have narrowed down the finalists to just four vehicles. Out of a total of 42 entries, only the Mercedes-Benz A-Class, Porsche Boxster/Cayman, Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT-86 and Volkswagen Golf remain standing. For Volkswagen, this marks the second consecutive year the company has had an entry among the finalists, and the fourth time since 2009. In order to qualify, a vehicle must be on sale on two continents during the span of time between January 1, 2013 and May 30, 2013. A panel of 66 journalists from 23 countries then vote on the finalists.
Three vehicles have made the cut for the last round of voting on the 2013 World Performance Car as well, with the Cayman/Boxster and FR-S/BRZ/GT-86 running against the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta. Meanwhile, the Renault Zoe, Tesla Model S and Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid are duking it out for the World Green Car Award. Finally, the World Car Design of the Year Award is up for grabs between the Aston Martin Vanquish, Jaguar F-Type, and the Mazda6. Check out the full press release below. Overall winners will be presented at the 2013 New York Auto Show.
