This vehicle is my pride and joy. I purchased this vehicle from a VW/Audi dealer in Newton, NJ a little over 2 years ago. I am the second owner. I will explain this vehicle to the best of my ability and perspective buyers are welcome to inspect the vehicle upon appointment in central NJ.
This is the 2009 MKV Volkswagen GTI. I purchased the vehicle because I needed a daily driver that would be fun to drive, fit my family, and not beat me up on gas. The vehicle has succeeded beyond my wildest dreams. Taking this vehicle to work was simply a joy. It's hard to find a car that's as versatile and fun to drive at the same time.
This vehicle has been maintained and have all records to show. VW recommends oil change every 10k. I have done this every 5K with Castrol Edge 5w-40. Engine is smooth and vehicle starts, runs, and drives perfect as it should.
For the money this vehicle includes things that most cars in it's price range can not compete with.
- Heated seats
- HID adjustable headlamps w/ fog lights
- Ambient lighting
- Air condition glove box
- Sirius radio with ipod input jack
- 10 Speakers
- Automatic speed sensitive wipers
- etc, etc, etc.
The vehicle has had no real issues in the passed. The repairs made in the car are as follows:
- Seat making noise (Fixed under warranty)
- Brake wear sensor malfunction. Replaced with OEM part
Maininence items that have been done include:
- Oil changed every 5k miles
- DSG service completed at 39k
- Fuel filter changed at 39k
- Front brakes have less than 5k (New pads and rotors)
- Rear brakes are BRAND NEW (Still had meat on the pads, just wanted new parts on the vehicle)
- Brake fluid flushed and bled
- Tires have less than 5K on them.
Issues that a buyer may question:
- VIN History shows fleet and/or lease use. This vehicle was a lease return when I purchased it at 19K miles.
- VIN History shows front end collision. The dealer tells me it was a fender bender that was reported to police with no air bag deployment or towing involved.
- There are no TPMS sensors in the wheels. The wheels are from a 2012 GTI which had the TPMS sensors in a different location. They can be purchased and installed if desired. I can also include the factory wheels instead of these but they have curb damage and tires have about 15k on them.
- Smaller than a dime sized ding on the roof from Hurricane Sandy. This was a branch that fell. I do NOT live on the coast or anywhere near water.
- Small chip on shifter bezel. This is a common VW issue and can be fixed easily by it's new owner.
Why you should consider this vehicle over similar GTI's
- All maintenance records are in my possession
- Paint and interior are in VERY GOOD condition. Only high end products used on this car.
- Fuel has only been Shell or Sunoco 93 octane. No cheap gas every used.
- Vehicle is garage kept MOST of the time.
- Transmission still under 10 yr 100k warranty from VW.
- NO mechanical issues. Very quick and fuel efficient vehicle.
- This is a 2009 which includes updated TSI engine. Burns NO oil and has a timing chain instead of a belt on the FSI engine.
Car is priced to sell. I do not want to get rid of it but since I've been driving a company vehicle I have no need for a third car. Price is OBO but please do not waste my or your time with low ball offers or SPAM.

Volkswagen to add 50k jobs by 2018
Thu, 04 Apr 2013Volkswagen still has its eyes set on becoming the top global automaker by 2018, and to get there, it's apparently going to need more boots on the ground. Automotive News Europe is reporting that VW is looking to increase its staff by 50,000 over the next five years - an increase of nine percent - which does not include an increase in its US dealer network.
According to the report, a majority of the growth will come from China where the automaker is also looking to double its production capacity in the same time frame. The Volkswagen Group is already expected to rival General Motors for the top sales spot in China this year, and such a rapid expansion in the region could make a good springboard for sales increases in other countries.
Volkswagen's De Silva says next Scirocco will be 'completely different'
Tue, 02 Apr 2013From our perspective, the reborn Volkswagen Scirocco is a handsome (if squat) little thing. Yet design-wise, it's always struck us as uncomfortably close to the Golf three-door hatchback with which it shares its basic underpinnings. That aesthetic kinship may be part of the reason why Volkswagen has steadfastly refused to import the Scirocco to North America, seeing as how the Golf doesn't regularly set the company's sales charts alight, and it's less expensive.
But that visual similarity might be about to change, says Walter De Silva, who recently told Australia's Car Advice that, "It must be completely different... we don't want to repeat the bodystyle of the Scirocco, we want to change that." Further, the Volkswagen Group's design boss says that the next-generation car isn't terribly far along in development yet - "at the moment, it's only a studio [project]... it's not defined." It's probably just as well, as the new seventh-generation Golf arguably borrows some of its design from the current Scirocco anyway.
So we should expect a much bolder, more differentiated design, right? Well, yes, no and maybe. Back in September, De Silva himself was quoted as saying that the era of flamboyant styling has passed, and that future VW designs will be simpler to better reflect the times and preserve resale value. So... how different could it be?
Happy 60th to the VW Karmann Ghia
Tue, 20 Aug 2013Volkswagen's product portfolio may be as extensive these days as any other carmaker in the business. But if you still think of the original Beetle as synonymous with the brand, that's probably because a) you're old and b) the Beetle was the company's only product until the mid-50s.
Sixty years ago Wilhelm Karmann (founder of the eponymous coachbuilder) was in Paris for the auto salon and met up with Luigi Segre and his team from Carrozzeria Ghia who showed him what was essentially a "Beetle in a sports coat." A month later they showed it to Volkswagen chief Heinrich Nordhoff who, setting aside his conservative tastes, approved it for production. And so the Volkswagen Karmann Ghia was born, giving the German marque a second product line. It still used Beetle mechanicals and was built at the same Karmann factory in Onsabrück that was already assembling the Beetle Cabriolet.
It took another couple of years to put the design into production, but from 1955 to 1974, Volkswagen and Karmann built 362,601 coupes and 80,881 of the subsequent convertible that arrived in 1957. Today the Onsabrück factory is part of the VW Group, handling production of the Golf Cabriolet, XL1 and Porsche Boxster and Cayman, and with that original Karmann Ghia prototype as part of its factory collection.
