This 1970 Volkswagen Standard Beetle Karmen Cabriolet convertible is in really nice rust free condition. Runs drives and shifts great and is very dependable, the previous owner put a new top/headliner and upholstery a couple years ago and they look good, no rips or visible wear. It appears to have a replacement single port 1600 motor (with a non vw engine serial # plate), that leaks a little oil at the pushrod seals as they all do, but with rebuilt carb, new points, plugs, wires, coil, condenser and cap it starts every time and runs well, it has an after market header . Also appears to have replacement full floor pans, the under carriage looks awesome. It has Empi 8 spoke wheels tht look good, the tires are old but do have tread, The paint looks decent but has some surface rust (not rust thru) around the windshield and on hood (see pictures) it was a mediocre paint job when it was new. Doors and top work great and all electrical accessories are in good working order. It also has new brake master cylinder, wheel cylinders and brake pads/springs clips. This is a good driver quality car that needs minor attention and tlc and is an excellent candidate for restoration. It is a ball to drive and always is the center of attention Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have or to see the car. Buyer is responsible for shipping arrangements and costs, I will assist with shipping preparation and loading. Thanks for looking, good luck and happy bidding, Brian

Volkswagen Golf R Evo may debut at Beijing Motor Show
Thu, 23 Jan 2014If a report in Auto Express is correct, a lighter, faster brother to the Volkswagen Golf R will be shown to the world at the Beijing Motor Show in April. Said to be called the Golf R Evo, the even harder hot hatch would be unveiled as one of those concepts that's practically a de facto presentation of the genuine thing. The Evo in its name will come from having a carbon fiber roof and CF in the bodywork, lighter wheels, thinner bucket seats up front and a roll cage instead of rear seats.
If there's a power increase, it's been described as "a small bump." However, as the report mentions, if the Jenny Craig regimen can drop 100 kilograms (220 pounds) from the the 3,247-pound weight of the European Golf R, then the Golf R Evo will do about the same damage on the scales as the Golf but have at least 50 more horsepower and 44 more pound-feet of torque.
Since we still don't have the current Golf, this isn't something that should keep you awake even if the 'concept' does become a production model. But it is good to know that the Golf R is really going to start pushing its boundaries.
Next Volkswagen Golf R to get 286 horsepower?
Tue, 12 Feb 2013The seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf hasn't launched in the United States just yet, but we're already setting our sights on the range-topping R model. According to Autocar, the next Golf R will be more powerful than the current version, producing 268 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, making it the most powerful production Golf ever.
Powering the new Golf R will be a further evolution of Volkswagen's well-liked 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four, and when mated to a six-speed dual-clutch transmission, the hotter hatch will reportedly be able to sprint to 62 miles per hour in five seconds flat. That's over half a second quicker than the current US-spec model.
Other updates for the new Golf R include the addition of VW's Haldex 5 all-wheel-drive system found in the latest iteration of 4Motion. Furthermore, thanks to the use of lightweight materials, the new R is expected to weigh in around 2,650 pounds - that's a massive 675 pounds less than the current US-spec car. The exhaust has reportedly been reworked to provide more aural delight, as well.
CEO says Volkswagen's buying spree is over
Mon, 03 Sep 2012
After adding Italian motorcycle icon Ducati to its stable and spending $5.6 billion on the rest of Porsche, Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn says he's done shopping for a while.
"We have enough to do at the moment in taking our twelve brands to where we want to be," Winterkorn tells German newspaper Handelsblatt.
