Hello fellow VW enthusiast, meet my MK4 1999.5 fully custom turbo GTI VR6 which represents all the best of speed, style, and sound! When I say custom, I mean there is NOTHING stock about this car... $20,000 in the engine bay and drive train, $20,000 in custom paint and body work, $10,000 in the suspension, brakes, wheels, and tires, and $5,000 in the interior and sound system. This beast is ready to plaster you into the back of your seat and is currently tuned with full stand alone engine management to over 400 whp. The motor is fully built top-to-bottom and ready to make over 600 whp if you so desire. The car has been transformed into a real wide-body (not using a body kit) with all body moldings and door locks shaved and has a custom black and siLver two-tone paint job along with Audi door handles. In addition, it has huge Porsche brakes, a fully adjustable coil-over suspension, and staggered wheels and tires for an aggressive stance and fly-paper adhesion to the road. Add to that tastefully done black alcantra door panels, headliner, and pillars with a great sounding custom sound system! Everything has been done meticulously and to the highest standard. The car runs and handles great and will make a true enthusiast very happy. The chassis has 82,485 miles on it, but the engine build only has about 7,000 miles on it. The stand-alone engine management system is Lugtronics (Megasquirt) and gives you full control over tuning with my Dell laptop which is included with the car. You can easily monitor and adjust every parameter of fuel, ignition, etc. and document the results via the Mega Viewer program. You also have control over launch, rev limiter, NOS, or any other output. There is an RS-232 data cable inside the car which connects to the included Dell laptop and has all the tuning and documentation software on it. Just plug it in and start tuning with this amazing software! This car is absolutely incredible, but since I am very particular, I think there a few minor things that you should know about: the gap between the front bumper and fenders is not perfect and there are some minor stone chips (the car has been driven and is not a trailer queen after all). In addition, there are two pieces of trim missing on either side of the radio/climate control in the dash and the back window tint has a bubble in it. Other than that the interior and exterior are immaculate! Also, the back seats have been removed but are included with the sale of the car. Well it's time for the CHA-CHING portion of the listing... Here are all the parts and modifications on this one-of-a-kind vehicle: ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION: 2.8 Schimmel stage 2 CRATE long block, ported and polished head 8.5:1 JE pistons, Schimmel Performance rods New lifters, retainers, timing chain, guides, and tensioner All 3 VF polyurethane and billet engine/tranny motor mounts Kinetic exhaust manifold Schimmel Performance short runner intake manifold Garrett GT 35/40r turbocharger (1.06 ar) TiAL 38mm wastegate Custom front mount intercooler and piping 42 lb./hr. fuel injectors Lugtronics (Megasquirt) stand alone engine management system with Dell laptop included Greddy Type-S blow-off valve Rebuilt transmission with Peloquin differential Greddy Profec B Spec I electronic boost controller GHL 3" Stainless steel exhaust with hi-flow catalytic converter Custom 3" heat wrapped downpipe Optima Red Top battery New O2 sensors SPEC Stage 3 clutch and flywheel Schimmel Performance Stage 2.9 DSS axles INTERIOR: Garrett boost gauge with New South single pod New OEM black carpet Black alcantra headliner, door panels, and pillars Euro head light switch Rear seat delete (Stock back seats included with sale of the car) Pioneer CD head unit with accessible USB jack for digital music play back Infinity front door and rear speakers Infinity capacitors and crossovers Custom flush mounted subwoofer enclosure with 10" JBL sub Custom side mounted JBL amplifiers (2) EXTERIOR (all body work professionally done): Custom two-tone black and silver paint job Custom boser grafted onto hood Euro Gear R32 front bumper Euro Gear R32 rear bumper Wide body pulled/extended fenders (done perfectly) Shaved hatch Shaved antenna Shaved all body moldings Entire body smoothed Audi door handles Hella smoked tail lights In.Pro projector angel eye head lights Smoked marker lights 35% window tint BRAKES AND SUSPENSION: ECS Stage II v2 Porsche 13" front big brake kit Rear cross-drilled and slotted rotors Weitec Coilovers New upper strut mounts and bushings WHEELS: 19" TSW Kyalami staggered wheels (8.5" front / 10" rear) Toyo Proxes tires H&R wheel spacers So, basically all you need to do is put gas in it, step on the pedal, and try not to destroy the car or kill yourself! hahaha This beautiful thing is wicked fast and a blast to drive and is worth every penny! Please email me with questions and do not send me ridiculous low-ball offers. Thank you!

McLaren F1 poaches Jost Capito from VW WRC

Mon, Jan 18 2016

The executive shuffle continues at the McLaren Formula 1 team with news that Ron Dennis has lured Jost Capito away from his position as head of Volkswagen Motorsport. Capito will become the CEO of McLaren Racing, replacing Jonathan Neale who took the position on an interim basis at the beginning of 2014 to replace Martin Whitmarsh. Whitmarsh, who had been with McLaren for 24 years and spent five of them as F1 team principal, left the company after being moved out of the CEO position. Neale, on the other hand, who has been with McLaren Racing since 2001, is moving over to the newly created position of COO of the McLaren Technology Group. Capito left the Ford SVT division in 2012 to run VW Motorsport, and has spent the past three years shepherding the brand's World Rally Championship to three consecutive driver's and manufacturer's titles. Before that, his lengthy racing resume includes developing high-performance BMW engines, winning the Dakar Rally as a co-pilot, executive positions with Sauber in the early nineties, and managing Ford's WRC team. Dennis, who first approached Capito last summer, called him, "extremely impressive, competitive, and ambitious." The Woking team has some great parts, but it hasn't been able to make the most of them comprehensively since the end 2012 season. Autosport says that Capito has the ability to make the best pieces work together, which will probably be his biggest challenge at McLaren. Capito will remain at VW until a successor is found.

Recharge Wrap-up: VW Golf TDI wins green car award, DC buses might go electric

Wed, Jul 23 2014

The 2015 Volkswagen Golf TDI has won the award for 2014 Northwest Green Car or the Year. The distinction comes from the Northwest Automotive Press Association during its Drive Revolution event in Portland. Co-chairman of the event, Jeff Zurschmeide, says, "Volkswagen has led the diesel passenger car market for years, and the Golf TDI proves that they're likely to stay on top for a while." The 2015 Golf TDI has 10 more horsepower than the outgoing model, while improving fuel economy thanks to a new engine. It also has a base price $3,000 lower than the 2014 Golf TDI. Read more in the press release below. The BMW i8 gets its laser high-beam headlights from lighting company Osram. The laser lights use half the energy of their LED counterparts, according to BMW, which is important when one is trying to get every last bit of range out of the car's battery. The laser high beams can also reach about twice as far as LED lighting. Because of their brightness, they won't be available on cars sold in the US. In laser-equipped i8s, the laser high beams will not work below 60 kilometers per hour, nor when other lights are detected in front of the vehicle. Head to Automotive News Europe to read more. Renault has delivered a fleet of 30 Kangoo ZEs to Uruguay's government-owned power company, UTE. The electric fleet will allow the company to reduce its CO2 emissions by 36 metric tons, says Renault. 84 percent of Uruguay's electricity comes from renewable sources, with a goal of 90 percent on the horizon. Uruguay aims to get a third of its electricity from wind farms by 2016, meaning these Kangoo ZEs will be powered in no small part by renewable energy. For Renault, "This order is a further sign of the interest in the region for electric vehicles," according to Denis Barbier, Renault's senior vice president, citing previous deliveries in Brazil, Mexico, Argentina and Colombia. Read more in the press release at Renault's website. Washington DC's "Circulator" bus routes may go electric. Some of the diesel buses, which were first put to work in 2003, are nearing the end of their life cycle, and DC sees an opportunity to make the switch to something a little greener. "Electric has not been a viable option in previous procurements, but now it is," says Will Handsfield, Georgetown Business Improvement District's transportation director. Handsfield is concerned about air quality, and says he also appreciates the long-term stability of electric rates compared to diesel.

A VW will help you keep control of your terrible children, apparently

Wed, Apr 29 2015

Not all kids are angels, and in fact some of them can be destructive little monsters at the worst of times. Parents know it, too. Volkswagen is playing on adults' fear of being publicly embarrassed by their progeny in an extremely clever ad, touting the long-distance driving range of the Passat TDI. Titled Mom, the spot is certainly one of the more creative sales pitches ever devised for a vehicle's fuel economy. The ad allows three little boys to go absolutely wild in a convenience store as a horrified cashier watches. Although, the commercial certainly raises the question: what mom would actually let her kids run around unattended while pumping gas?
