My wife and I decided to sell this car which is now even a more incredibly low price for someone who would like a great GTi that has great aftermarket products installed by a great company called RPM.  Additionally, I had the cluch replaced by the VW service which cost me $2,200 and did, so it would be like brand new. Aside from that, and when the RPM did all that they did...many people who see it think it's a brand new car...lol. Actually, in my opinion, while only a brand new car is perfect...this one is close to being like a new car and far better with all of the very expensive aftermarket products added. Now while we paid approximately $41,000 for the car, aftermarket products and the new cluch...we're selling it for a LOT less. In fact, we're selling it for about the same price as just a regular 2008 GTi.  For example, look at the other ones here on eBay.  Most are 14.5K to 15.5K and am sure all of them are nice yet ours has a LOT of aftermarket products in making it a Show Car!!  And yet, we'd also let someone buy it for less than $2,699 with ALL aftermarket products accept the current wheels and tires and you could replace them with the original wheels and tires that we still have here at no extra cost. The new wheels cost $5500 and the tires were approximately $400. Yes, it would be much better to buy it WITH the new wheels and tires, in my opinion...not just because the new wheels are BEST but also because you'd save $3,201 in those. This is a great price so...first come/first served!

"Show Car"? Sure, my son has done that locally due to the aftermarket products added. Meanwhile, The PA State Inspection was done this November which means all is good...no surprise to me. We bought it for him for $19,000 from the dealer in Wexford, PA. When we bought it, this car had 46,720 miles whereas now it has 54,822 so its only been driven 8,102 miles and FAR less since all the fantastic aftermarket products were added just before my son went to college.  He couldn't have a car there so we decided to sell it. The good news for the buyer is that it cost $20,000 for the aftermarket products that was installed by one of the best companies in the USA...called RPM and you can call the main one who did it, his name is Justin and he did really good! They were installed approximately only within the past 6 months when my son went to college...so it had less than 500 miles on the aftermarket products!! My son always referred to it as his "baby" and he drove it very well, kept it very clean and always took care of it. I'm NOT the expert about aftermarket products on cars yet my son sure is and I discovered that RPM is great in doing them. In effect, as told to me by my son, the mods include:

-2 13.5" JL audio Tw5 subwoofers
-Pioneer AppRadio Headunit
-Interior Red LED lights
-Autopilot v2 suspension
-18" BBS super RS's powder coated white
-Eurojet Turbo Back Exhaust
-Neuspeed P-flo cold air intake 

The good news for a buyer is that I own the car here in Pennsylvania and have the Title. I do require payment by cash or by your banks Cashier's Check. As for the latter, I would want to know about it prior to the buyer arriving to pick up the car as I will call your bank to confirm that it's legitimate. And then we'd go to my bank to confirm it as well. After that, the Title will be changed to the buyer at a place very close to our house after the payment is completed successfully.

Aside from the aftermarket products here's the details of the car as I understood it:

• 2008 Volkswagen GTI

• 2.0L l-4 TURBO engine

• 6-speed MANUAL transmission

• Beautiful candy white exterior

• Anthracite interior

• Great color combo!!!

• Xenon high intensity headlights

• Front fog lights

• Front air conditioning

• Cruise control

• On-board trip computer

• Sirius am/fm/mp3 premium stereo

• 6-disc cd changer

• 10 speakers and 2 HUGE Sub Woofers

• Power windows

• Power door locks

• Power side-view mirrors

• Light-tinted windows

• Four-wheel ABS brakes

• 3 ABS channels

• Brake assist

• Abs and driveline traction control

Shipping, if necessary, is full responsbility of buyer. If being shipped, full payment must first be received. If pick up, same applies though can be done simultaneously.

VW to unveil diesel-electric Twin-Up! in Tokyo

Fri, 08 Nov 2013

We've received multiple reports that Volkswagen will be bringing a diesel-electric concept to the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show, set to take place later this month. The car, called the Twin-Up!, is based on the Up! city car, with some sources claiming this is a thinly veiled concept that will eventually enter production.
According to Automotive News Europe, the Twin-Up! will reportedly return 214 miles per gallon on the US cycle by combining an 800-cc, two-cylinder diesel and an electric motor. It will also boast plug-in capabilities, and will be able to cover 30 miles on electric power alone.
Autocar has a more complete picture of the Twin-Up!'s powertrain, though, claiming it's a modified version of the hybrid system found in the Volkswagen XL1. The Twin-Up! will get a more potent, 47-horsepower electric motor to the XL1's 27-hp unit, but will retain that car's 47-hp turbodiesel. The battery pack will also grow, from 5.5 kilowatt hours to 8.6 kWh. Both of these increases are necessary due to the increased weight of the Twin-Up! - it's some 900 pounds heavier than an XL1.

2013 Volkswagen Beetle Turbo Convertible

Wed, 10 Apr 2013

Less Flower, More Power
Pardon our political incorrectness for a moment, but the Volkswagen New Beetle was, undeniably, a "chick car." There was almost nothing that the New Beetle offered to enthusiasts (of either gender), and by the end of its run, VW had even stripped all of the exciting engines from the car's lineup. Looking to resurrect some of the excitement behind the Beetle, the third generation of the iconic car ditched the cuteness when the coupe debuted for 2012, and now the 2013 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible aims to show how much fun drivers can have without a top.
Celebrating almost six and a half decades of the Beetle convertible, Volkswagen is offering a trio of distinct special editions that celebrate three of the car's most popular decades (the '50s, '60s and '70s), but as one of the unofficial cars of the 1960s, it would almost be a crime not to test this version, right? Besides, this is also the only special edition to get the turbocharged engine. While our first drive of the 2013 Beetle Convertible was in the fuel-miser TDI variation, our two-week romp in the 2013 Beetle Convertible '60s Edition came just as peak convertible weather was kicking off down in Florida.

Anti-UAW VW workers move to form own union

Sat, 30 Aug 2014

The struggle over unionization at the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga, TN, continues to get more complicated. There's now a second union fighting to organize at the plant; although this one is staunchly against the actions of the United Auto Workers. At the same time, the UAW is still signing up voluntary members to its recently created Local 42 at the facility and is reportedly near having a majority of the hourly employees on its side.
The new, anti-UAW union campaign is being spearheaded by employee Mike Burton, according to Reuters, and he calls his group the American Council of Employees. He claims to already have 108 signatures in support of his organization. Burton believes that the UAW is harmful to businesses, and his goal is to force another vote to determine a preferred union among workers.
The UAW was initially defeated (712 to 626) when it attempted a union vote at the Tennessee plant in February. However, UAW secretary-treasurer Gary Casteel told Reuters that Local 42 has already signed up over 700 members. If it can reach a majority of the roughly 1,500 employees, the group hopes VW might consider recognizing it as the factory's union.
