Clean tittle, dmv is fixing the issue where it says flood damage, cars not flooded, come and see, photo of clean title included in listing.
This is one of 5,000 R32's made in USA and its essentially an Audi TT all wheel drive sport car. With upgrades its around 300HP. These cars are rare and sell totaled at auctions for what im asking for as far as price, most of all the parts have been replaced ensuring that this car will give you lots of years before another part fails. Please read below as a lot has been done to this car.

Basics:
165,xxx miles many of which are highway.
Smoke and stain free, car smells good.
Oil changes every 4,ooo miles with mobile 1 synthetic.
Only premium gas used.
Interior is great, no rips or tears as well as the car smell is good and no pets were in car.
Exterior has signs of daily driving, left fender has a dent from ice and front hood has a spot where a small rock hit it leaving a white chip. Other than that car is great.
The car currently has a painted  black golf bumper, in the photo its the grey one at the end. This bumper was used for the winter and has cracks and chips.

The price is a steal, if you do not think so please research the car more as working r32's even with high miles sell on average of 10-12,000$+ and some with lower miles as high as 24,000$,  smashed at auction around 5-7,500$ which means repairs and bad title and more parts failing in the future. The biggest part in their popularity is that they are rare and expensive so if you are not ready to buy one at auction and fix it or spend a large amount to purchase one without issues than your not ready for an r32. This is basicaly and audi with almost all audi parts stock as well as some unique aditions like heated konig racing seats and aluminum trim and body kit stock. I suggest researching it more if you are not fully familiar with their price and rarity.

Now to the good stuff:
This car has thousands invested and is virtually brand new due to all the components Ive replaces recently.

Changed:
Nuespeed springs lowered, the car is very low.
Water pump 2-3 weeks ago.
Flywheel, bolts, clutch & pressure plate 3 months.
Air pump. 6 months ago.
Serpentine belt 2-3 weeks ago.
Timing chain 5 months ago.
Control arm bushings.
Front suspension & Bushings.
Rear suspension.
Trunk latch assembly and sensor.
Rear control arms lower x2, aftermarket race brand adjustable.
set of 4 new tires low profile all season.
New flex Down pipe.
New break pads all around with lifetime warranty.
Haldex filter.
Haldex oil.
Secondary radiator.
Thermostat and seal rings.
Breather air hose.
Rubber air hoses.
Coolant temp sensor.
brand New battery with warranty 1 month ago.

Mods:
Short shift.
Resinator button (Shuts off pipes so they're quiet at the flick of a switch.)
Black coated OEM Aristo rims.
Tint.
Radio cables ran for aftermarket radio system.
Glass aftermarket black headlights.
Black "magic colors" tail lights.
Black side marker and blinker lights with white LED's.
K&N intake pipe and carbon fiber intake cone (lifetime cleanable)
Aftermarket audio cables ran all way through for aftermarket system.
Added lighted jetta vents so there's more red lighting as with stock r32 not all the buttons glow.

The bad news:
This car over heats, a pressure test was ran and there was no leak detected, I have paper work for test, the oil has no water in it, the coolant tank has no oil in it and the car does not leak anywhere outside. The car has random overheating, comes and goes, runs and drives. The spark plugs need to be replaced as they misfired.
Code scan detected misfires due to the spark plugs misfiring on multiple cylinders, there are no other codes and I will have a code scaner at time with me to prove it as well as will have car runing for you at time of pick up to show you.
Back to the overheating....
VW said it could be a number of issues like air in the system, faulty parts like radiator, water pump, ect. I do not have time or money to diagnose the car and I purchased a bmw so having 3 cars is not an option especially after putting 5,000$ into this car already, price is a steal regardless of the miles or any issue it has. Please do not bid if you do not plan to buy or ask for a better deal, at this price with all the mods and parts its practically a gift so good luck to the winner and enjoy.

In the event that this car does not sell this time around I will not re-list it any longer, i will begine parting out the parts. Thank you for your interest, if you have any questions please call me at 413-523-9232. Good day.

This Or That: 1987 VW Vanagon Syncro vs. 1987 Land Rover Defender [w/poll]

Thu, 13 Nov 2014

As I scoured auction sites and classified ads for the perfect vehicle to take into battle with Autoblog Associate Editor Brandon Turkus, I knew I needed to find something unique. You see, I'm currently 0-2 at winning a round of This or That, in which two of our editors agree on a category, choose a side, and argue it out over a (mostly) friendly chain of emails.
The first time we did this, my chosen Fiat 500 Abarth took about a third of the popular vote in our reader poll. The second time, my lovely 1980 Oldsmobile 442 did just a little bit better against a 1989 BMW 635 CSi. Despite holding the opinion that my automotive choices, though perhaps a little bit more... obscure than my fellow editors, are still better, an outright win would go a long way toward boosting my vehicular self worth a few notches upward.
With all of that out of the way, even if three isn't my lucky number after all, I go into battle against Brandon knowing full well that I've made the perfect choice: A 1987 Volkswagen Vanagon Syncro. My rough-and-tumble van/'ute has a formidable opponent in the form of a 1987 Land Rover Defender, which, truth be told, is exactly what I was expecting from Turkus, a self-proclaimed Rover aficionado.

UK auto magazine says this is the best car commercial of all time [w/videos]

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

There have been many great car commercials over the years, but is it possible to define the best? Well, Ad Week recently took a crack at it by rating the top commercials of the year by looking at their view counts on YouTube, but Auto Express took a more democratic approach by putting the decision to a vote. Just after Thanksgiving, Auto Express came up with a list of the 20 popular commercials, and it tasked its readers with choosing the winner for the best car ad of all time. The winner? Honda's 2003 commercial for its then-new European Accord titled "The Cog."
While the ad never aired in the US, most car people have surely seen the impressive Rube Goldberg-style spot. In fact, the only commercial on this list that we saw on US television was the Volkswagen ad "The Force," but many of the others have become viral videos, including transforming and dancing Citroën C4. Of the 19 other commercials that vied for the title of best ad of all time, only the Ford Puma "Steve McQueen" commercial gave Honda a run for its advertising money.

Volkswagen CrossBlue previews a three-row future, diesel-hybrid power [w/video]

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

Volkswagen looks to be getting ready to jump into the large three-row crossover game. The automaker has officially pulled back the curtain on the CrossBlue Concept at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show.
Designers and engineers penned the machine specifically for the Canadian and US markets, and with a plug-in diesel electric hybrid drivetrain, the hulking five-door, at least in concept form, should offer substantially better efficiency than anything else on the market. The drivetrain pairs a 2.0-liter turbo diesel four-cylinder engine with two electric motors for a combined output of 305 horsepower and a ludicrous 516 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed dual-clutch gearbox handles shifting detail, while one electric motor spins the front wheels. The second motor spins the back axle independently, make the CrossBlue a through-the-road hybrid.
As a result, the crossover can pop to 60 mph in 7.2 seconds. Perhaps more impressively, the CrossBlue can whir around on all-electric propulsion for up to 14 miles at up to 75 mph. Once the diesel four kicks in, the drivetrain can yield up to 39 mpg, though Volkswagen says the hardware can hit 89 MPGe on a full charge thanks to a 9.8 kWh lithium-ion battery pack. Check out the full press release below for more information.
