Amazing Untouched '62 Ragtop
Putting up for auction my "must see to believe" all original '62 beetle ragtop. This rust free beetle still retains the original paint, interior, headliner, etc. The car spent the majority of its life in arizona. I have tons of paperwork showing all work done since new and mileage through the years. In 1965 the motor was replaced by VW dealership with a brand new factory '65 model motor, also have the paperwork for this. The front fenders for unknown reason have replaced with correct '62 fenders years and years ago. not sure as to why as the car has never been involved in any accident. The original paint is unbelievable with minimal "patina" fading. Check out the video, very accurate of how the car actaully looks in person. This is definitely a beetle that i know if anything the car is much nicer in person than in pictures. I am a serious vw collector focusing mostly on unrestored early model beetles and buses. I hate to see this one go, but with 10+ driver condition vws I must let a few go. This car is one of the nicest original cars I have but is the most recent addition so letting it go before coming too attached. Coming from Arizona, this beetle is very dry, absolutely NO rust anywhere and never has had any rust. What you see is what you get! And now for the best part, driving this beetle, hands down you will not find a smoother driving, shifting 62 beetle anywhere. Drives like it just rolled off the showroom floor. I am sure there is much more I am forgetting as this is truly real gem of a find with a very reasonable reserve as all my vehicles I ever sell usually do within the first week. I am not a "it brought this on barret jackson" kind of guy
I will be adding a youtube video link later this evening that does a great job showing the car running and the accurate condition of the car

Toyota reclaims global sales crown, GM and VW not far behind
Mon, 28 Jan 2013TheDetroitBureau.com reports Toyota has retaken the global sales crown. The Japanese automaker turned out 9.75 million vehicles last year, putting it just ahead of General Motors, with 9.29 million vehicles. Volkswagen, meanwhile, filled out the podium by building 9.1 million units in 2012.
Still, Toyota numbers fell just below projections the automaker made earlier in the year, due largely to a fierce territorial dispute between Japan and China that has seen mainland buyers shun Japanese goods. But the news marks a substantial comeback for Toyota. The company fell to third place in the global production race in 2011 after tragic earthquake and tsunami caused several plant closures.
In Japan, Toyota enjoyed a sales increase of 35 percent over the previous year, while the company's worldwide sales jumped by 23 percent thanks in part to new additions to the Prius line. The automaker is forecasting yet another increase for 2013, with the company projecting to reach 9.91 million units this year. Neither Volkswagen nor GM have released their own projections just yet.
Volkswagen and Funny or Die take humorous spin in 2015 Golf
Wed, 10 Sep 2014Volkswagen is partnering with Target and Funny or Die in a bizarre ad for the latest Golf starring comedian Rob Huebel, probably best known for his work on Childrens Hospital on Adult Swim.
The commercial is titled The Way Too Helpful Neighbor and stars Huebel as the eponymous neighbor. The challenge is for Huebel to help improve his buddy's apartment before the guy meets his girlfriend's parents for the first time. The obvious way to do that is to slide a new Golf through an actual Target in Texas, while simultaneously showcasing the store's goods and the car's features.
The commercial is airing online now and on TBS during breaks in Conan O'Brien's show, with sneak peaks during other programs on the network. Auto advertising is becoming pretty normal for Funny or Die at this point, though, with the site previously partnering with Fiat for several videos. Check out the ad above and see if you think it works. Scroll down for VW's announcement.
Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
