 '73 Volkswagen Super Beetle. This is an "A" title car with 35,118 ORIGINAL miles. This car was fully restored from the ground up about 10 years ago and rarely driven.  It was driven to a few shows.. This car gets attention everywhere it goes. Super clean and incredible attention to detail! Lots of polished stainless and billit aluminum throughout. Custom paint and pinstriping. Pinstriping was done by the legendary pin stripe artist Mike Caputo. Beautifully done.  Paint work was professionally done to show quality and is awesome. Body is super straight. All body side trim, head light rings, etc. were replaced with high quality replacements after repaint. All of the glass is in great shape.  Floor pans, heater channels, frame head, strut towers, etc. are original to car and in excellent shape and underside of car was painted during restoration.  Creative Car Craft fiberglass widened fenders and widened stock style bumpers with built in turn signals. Car has 68-72 style tail lights. Engine is a fully rebuilt-stock 1600cc dual port that runs excellent. Starts with ease and runs smooth. Engine was kept stock for reliability and is great on gas.  You can drive this car anywhere. Car still has heater boxes and heat blows well. Monza exhaust. Front end was gone through; as was the entire brake system. Car drives straight and smooth and stops well. The clutch, pressure plate, and throwout bearing were replaced at time of engine rebuild.  The 4 speed transmission shifts with ease with a Hurst style shifter. Custom interior finished in tweed, new carpet, sculpted door panels and headliner.  New steering wheel and dash pad.  Billit Specialties wheels with Michelin tires all of the way around. Rear tires are wide to fill in the fenders.  Tires have great tread although the fronts are starting to get dry.  Car has a very nice stance and a hot rod look to it. Never fails to draw attention. Pop out 1/4 windows! All fender beading and weatherstripping was replaced. Fender beading was custom made and is a unique color to match paint. Sunroof works great and the mechanism was rebuilt. Less than 500 miles since restoration. Drives excellent.  There was loads of attention to detail put into the restoration of this car and lots of time and money invested.  I am offering this car at a low reserve.  The set reserve price is 3x less than the amount invested into the restoration.  If you live close by I encourage you to come see this car in person.  If you are hesitant at buying a car long distance, have someone look at the car for you.  I am selling the car "as is," no warranty or refund.  Winning bidder is to pay a $500 deposit through Pay Pal within 24 hours of auction.  The remaining balance is to be paid within 7 days via cash or bank to bank wire transfer.  People new to Ebay or with zero feedback please contact me prior to bidding or I will cancel your bid.  Shipping and transport is responsibility of the buyer. I will gladly assist in loading the car.  Please contact me if you have any further questions at (856) 299-1636 EST or through Ebay.  Car is realistically priced to sell!  The car will be listed for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early.  Thanks and good luck bidding.

US-spec 2015 Volkswagen Golf and GTI to finally debut in New York

Tue, 12 Mar 2013

The seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf is hardly new to us. In fact, we've already driven it. And elsewhere in the world, the new Golf is already winning awards. Even so, we still have yet to see the US-spec version of the car, though that won't be the case much longer. As part of the New York Auto Show festivities later this month, Volkswagen will finally show off the 2015 Golf models destined for our shores.
Three different versions of the Golf will debut under the lights of New York City's Javits Center: the turbocharged TSI, oil-sipping TDI and hotter GTI. The first model in that list uses Volkswagen's new 1.8-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine, replacing the outgoing 2.5-liter naturally aspirated inline five-cylinder. The latter two models use familiar engines: the 2.0-liter TDI diesel and 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, respectively.
Even though the new Golf officially debuts later this month, it won't go on sale in the US until the first quarter of 2014. We'll be waiting patiently.

Auto execs surveyed say VW, BMW most likely to grow

Thu, 17 Jan 2013

A new survey of top global automotive executives indicates both Volkswagen and BMW are the most likely to grow their market share over the next five years.
Tax advisory firm KPMG LLP has released its 14th annual Global Automotive Executive Survey, which includes responses from over 200 executives. A total of 81 percent of respondents said they expect to see Volkswagen make gains, compared to 70 percent last year. BMW, meanwhile, saw 70 percent of those surveyed say they believe the company will increase its market share. That's a jump of 7 percentage points over last year. This is the first time in the history of the survey that BMW has claimed the second-place spot.
Meanwhile, Hyundai has seen its perceived market share potential slacken for the third year in a row. Around 61 percent of those surveyed predicted gains for Hyundai, down from 63 in 2012. Toyota also has a surprising year, but for just the opposite reason. While the manufacturer had slipped in ranking since 2011, it enjoyed the largest increase of any company in the 2013 survey, jumping to 68 percent from 44 percent last year.

Chrysler and Fiat offering $1,000 rebates to VW owners as Marchionne gets tough

Mon, 10 Dec 2012

The throw-down between Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne and Volkswagen has heated up in earnest. According to Bloomberg, Fiat and Chrysler are now offering current Volkswagen owners in the US $1,000 rebates to trade in their ride. It's the latest in a series of shots Marchionne has taken at his German rival. As you may recall, the Fiat executive entered into a spat with Volkwagen board chairman Ferdinand Piëch and CEO Martin Winterkorn in October after the duo called for Marchionne's resignation from presidency of the European Automotive Manufacturers Association (AECA). At the time, the Volkswagen executives were quoted as saying Fiat would not survive the European economic downturn.
In response, Marchionne called the German executives "reprehensible," and accused Volkswagen of using a pricing strategy that has created created a "bloodbath" in the EU. Volkswagen has taken to steep discounting to carve out ever-larger slices of market share in Europe, but the company has a much smaller foothold in the US. Marchionne may be trying to hit Volkswagen where the manufacturer is weakest with the new Fiat new incentive program.
Late last week, the Fiat executive was voted to a second term as ACEA president.
