1972 VW SuperBeetle

This is an original California car, I bought this bug from an officer on Coronado Island in San Diego. He bought it in Oakland on Christmas eve 1971. The bug was originally 1972 Beetle Red but was repainted blue by the original owner. When I bought it, it needed new chrome all around, moldings, bumpers, mirrors, etc. I have the original motor and sport wheels with numbers matching to car. The bug has a 1776cc race motor with Real dual Italian Dellorto Carbs, ceramic coated headers with ceramic coated J-tubes and chrome stinger exhaust, an Engle 120 cam, fully ported and polished heads, hi-output chrome coil, and full chrome tin with a blue painted block, and a chrome 3 piece firewall, and with many other chrome and Billet parts. The transmission is also original and solid with a tranny support mount for quick shifting support. All brake components have been replaced, disc brakes. All suspension parts in front end have been replaced with new units from Airheadparts: including all suspension bushings, ends, steering damper, steering box, EVERYTHING. Also shocks and sport springs, shock tower support under hood, new wheels, 195/50/15's on all four. Endless chrome trim in and out. Interior is all black stock. Comes with Alpine CD and Polk mids and tweets. Trunk carpeted. Interior has original rear parcel tray behind rear seat. T-Close ratio shifter. Billet roller gas wheel/pedal.
Car will go 70mph in 3rd and keeps climbing. Fast, strong motor with less than 4k miles on it. Original (numbers matching) motor and wheels included. Looks really good when polished and shined up - everything works, even the windshield wipers. Even SOUNDS fast!!!
This is a really sweet bug, with a paint job it could win shows.

VW ready to spend $25B on at least 6 EVs in China by 2018

Tue, Apr 22 2014

Standing next to the lovely GTE plug-in hybrid during the Beijing Motor Show, VW CEO Martin Winterkorn announced a renewed, $25-billion focus for the German automaker on electric mobility in China. EVs + China is not a new equation for VW (see here and here and here), but the time is now for the plan to come together, apparently. As Winterkorn said in a statement (available below), "We are launching the biggest initiative for e-mobility in China's automotive history." "We are launching the biggest initiative for e-mobility in China's automotive history" – Martin Winterkorn With the Porsche Panamera S E-hybrid already in showrooms, the next tip of the spear is made up of the all-electric e-up! and e-Golf, both of which are due later this year. In 2015, the Audi A3 e-tron and Golf GTE will arrive. In 2016, there will be two exclusive-to-China plug-in hybrid vehicles in showrooms: a A6 PHEV and a "new mid-size limousine from the Volkswagen brand." VW Group may even throw in the Bentley Hybrid Concept for good measure. The China-only models will be built in the country and VW is investing over $25 billion between now and 2018, creating an expected 20,000 jobs. VOLKSWAGEN GROUP STARTS ELECTRO-MOBILITY CAMPAIGN IN CHINA CEO Prof. Dr. Winterkorn: "We are launching the biggest initiative for e-mobility in China's automotive history." Campaign gets underway with electric up!1 and e-Golf2 Over ˆ18 billion to be spent on new vehicles, technologies and plants up to 2018 Over 500,000 employees at more than 3,600 dealerships in 2018 Vehicle deliveries in China targeted to top 3.5 million for first time in 2014 Wolfsburg / Beijing, April 22, 2014: "The Volkswagen Group is once again assuming a pioneering role in China and launching the biggest initiative for e-mobility in China's automotive history," Prof. Dr. Martin Winterkorn, CEO of Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft, announced at the Auto China motor show in Beijing. The initiative gets underway with the launch this year of the Volkswagen brand's electric up!1 and e-Golf2 models. While the Porsche Panamera S E-hybrid3 is already in the showrooms in China, the Group will be launching two further innovative plug-in hybrid vehicles there next year with the Audi A3 e-tron4 and the Golf GTE5.

Skoda unveils Volkswagen Up!-based Citigo

Tue, 27 Sep 2011

This is the all-new Skoda Citigo, and if you're thinking that it looks rather familiar, that's because its Volkswagen-badged kin recently debuted at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show. That's right, the long-rumored Skoda version of Volkswagen's new Up! city car has finally arrived.
Buyers will have a choice of two 1.0-liter three-cylinder engines - one with 59 horsepower, the other with a 74 hp and a blistering 106 mph top speed - both mated to a five-speed manual transmission. Powerful they are not, but these three-bangers should prove to be extremely efficient, with Skoda quoting fuel economy numbers of 62.8 and 60.1 miles per gallon, respectively (on the European cycle).
Being a Skoda, the Citigo will go on sale in its home market of the Czech Republic this fall, with the rest of Europe getting the car next summer. Follow the jump for Skoda's official release.
