2012 VW Jetta TDI with 38,XXX miles. Dealer maintained every 10k miles as recommended by VW. This is my daily driver and the miles will be increasing some. 

Green title, no accidents, garage kept, non-smoker. There is a lien/loan on title, so the easiest way to complete this transaction would be at a Chase Bank - who is the lien holder.

Key Features - Black Leatherette interior, Touchscreen Navigation system/DVD (has a built in hard drive), Fender premium sound system, Keyless access w/ push-button start, heated seats, fog lights, heated power mirrors...5 year/60k mile powertrain warranty still in effect


This VW Diesel is rated at 30/42 MPG, but people routinely get better gas mileage out of their TDIs. On a couple long trips to Chicago, I've been close to getting 700 miles on 1 tank of gas. The norm is probably around 550 with a decent amount of highway miles, but if you're driving mostly city it would probably be closer to 450 per tank.  It's not uncommon for people to get up to 50-60 MPG with these TDIs

Extras

Standard Navigation system is the RNS-315, I have upgraded to the RNS-510. The 510 has a 6.5" touchscreen and better resolution, compared to the 315 with a 5" screen. This new radio cost around $2k and was professionally installed. This is not factored in the sticker price (see photo).

Extra set of (4) VW mats - original mats were used once when the vehicle was driven home from the dealer, only used TDI Monster Mats after that.

Extra set of (4) rims/tires - Volkswagen Karthoum 18" Wheels (black). Tires have about 14k miles on them. Current wheels on the car are standard 16" alloy with all season tires with about 24k miles on them. Both sets have significant amount of tread left. The 18" wheels and tires new cost is over $2k. This is not on the sticker price and I do have the receipt if needed. (the only picture I have with the black rims was from when I originally purchased the Jetta, which I've included)

Transferable wheel/tire warranty 5 years from purchase which cost was $599. Purchase date was 9/29/11, so that puts the expiration date at 9/29/16. I believe the transfer fee is $40 dollars to NSD.

Windows were tinted at the dealer at the time of purchase. 

The window sticker does reflect the option for Front/Rear Valance and side sill extensions. This is the ground effects body kit that was installed at factory, special ordered. If you're going to KBB to get a value, this is not an option or factored in. As you can see from the window sticker photo, this option cost $1950.

Negatives - The rear passenger door has 2 minor marks, I'd say they are slightly larger than a pin head from what I think was someone hitting it with a shopping cart. The Karthoum wheels do have a little curb rash (2), one a little more than the other - not too noticeable. I will provide some pictures of these items upon request.

Contact Craig @ (two-four-eight) EIGHT 54..6228. Serious inquiries only please. These TDIs go for every bit of blue book value, so there isn't much room for negotiation.

2014 Volkswagen GTI to start a new hot hatch era in Geneva

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

The upcoming Geneva Motor Show is going to be stocked with important new production models and sexy concept cars, but hot hatch enthusiasts will undoubtedly see it as the coming out party of the MkVII Volkswagen GTI. And while we've only got European specifications and pricing to go on for now, we can tell from the get-go that the new GTI will be a proper heir to VW's hot hatch legacy.
This seventh-generation GTI is powered by a turbocharged, direct-injection 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, which makes 220 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque in base form. For the first time ever, Volkswagen is also offering a performance pack for the GTI as well, which ups the horsepower to 230 (torque remains unchanged). With a slightly lower curb weight to push around - the new base car weighs 2,978 pounds versus 3,034 for the current three-door GTI - 0-62 miles per hour is now achieved in 6.5 seconds, and top speed is 153 mph. (Cars with the performance pack offer 0-62 mph in 6.4 seconds, and a 155-mph top speed.) Buyers my choose between a six-speed manual transmission or an optional six-speed DSG unit.
Visually, the new GTI has obviously adopted the slant-nosed looks of the MkVII Golf, though with plenty of added drama. The exterior is dominated by the 17-inch "Brooklyn" wheels wearing 225-section rubber, and the aggressive front fascia gets black honeycombed inserts in the upper and lower grille sections. At launch, Volkswagen will offer the GTI in three colors: the Pure White seen here, Tornado Red and Black. Tartan patterned seats are of course still an option for the interior, while the GTI-specific steering wheel and shift knob are standard.

$1.4B hedge fund suit against Porsche dismissed

Wed, 19 Mar 2014

Investors have canvassed courts in Europe and the US to repeatedly sue Porsche over its failed attempt to take over Volkswagen in 2008 (see here, and here and here), and they have repeatedly failed to win any cases. You can add another big loss to the tally, with Bloomberg reporting that the Stuttgart Regional Court has dismissed a 1.4-billion euro ($1.95B US) lawsuit, the decision explained by the court's assertion that the investors would have lost on their short bets even if Porsche hadn't misled them.
Examining the hedge funds' motives for stock purchases and the bets that VW share prices would fall, judge Carola Wittig said that the funds didn't base their decisions on the key bits of "misinformation," and instead were participating simply in "highly speculative and naked short selling," only to get caught out.
With other cases still pending, the continued streak of victories bodes well for Porsche's courtroom fortunes, since judges will expect new information to consider overturning precedent. If there is any new info, it could come from the potential criminal cases still outstanding against former CEO Wendelin Wiedeking and CFO Holger Härter, who were both indicted on charges of market manipulation.

Volkswagen lays off 500 Chattanooga workers

Fri, 19 Apr 2013

The redesigned Volkswagen Passat has been a decent seller since its debut in 2011, but sales have apparently dropped off enough that the automaker is trimming some of the employees from its Chattanooga, TN assembly plant. According to Automotive News, Volkswagen will be cutting shifts and laying off 500 contracted workers in response to slowing sales.
Currently, the plant has three teams running 10-hour shifts Monday through Saturday, but starting May 13, this will be reduced down to two teams running 10-hour shifts Monday through Thursday. This will be done to reduce dealer inventory (the article says that VW dealers, on average, have a 97-day supply of Passats) and production capacity (currently running at an annual pace of 170,000 units, which is more than the 150,000 annual units the plant was planned to produce).
This, of course, isn't saying that the Passat has been a failure since VW added 200 full-time employees to the plant in February 2012 to keep up with increased demand. The AN article says that automakers frequently overstaff plants during the launch of a new product - or in this case, a new product and a new plant - but eventually reduce the workers as things run smoother and more efficiently.
