Volkswagen Golf R, APR Tuned stage 2+ You have to be a VW enthusiast to
appreciate this car. This could be
the most fun car to drive at an affordable price. I purchased this car
new and drove it like a sweet old lady until I had 1,000 miles on the clock,
then the upgrades started. First I had it tuned to APR stage I and unleashed
the horses which took the HP from 250 to 300. Unfortunately for my wallet this
only gave me a thirst for more. So a new APR turbo back exhaust, a high
pressure fuel pump, a VWR cold air intake and a ARP re-flash to stage II+
boosted this screaming howling hatchback to a peak horsepower of 362hp and 370
ft-lbs of torque. The stock clutch that linked this much power to the 6 speed
manual transmission could not take the extra hp without slipping and required a
further upgrade to the South Bend
DXD KFSI HD OFE endurance clutch and flywheel package. The stock wheels
also whilst adequate did not quite look the part with the steel grey paint job
so VWR 18” X 8” ET45 gunmetal grey wheels were also required to complete the
package. The total selling price of this car new without taxes and fees was
$35,817 in April 2012. In addition the total cost for the upgrades: $8,000
installed, for a total investment of $43,817. This car is now offered for sale complete
with the stock parts (including the stock aluminium wheels if you need them for
winter tires) or if a buyer wants I will keep all these parts for sale
separately and reduce the final sale price of the car by $3,000. If you are still reading you are probably
aware of the other specifications for the R as it only comes fully loaded,
however to reassure you let me give you the additional details anyway; This one
is a 2 door hatchback, 4 wheel drive with 6 speed manual transmission. Sun
roof, leather R seats and metal finish pedals. I bought this car new in May
2012. It is in immaculate condition. This car has never been in an accident or
had any kind of body repair. I have only used the car on the road; it has never
been on a track or raced in anyway. All the upgrades were carried out by an APR
dealer here in Atlanta, I have the invoices and the APR certificate. All
maintenance has been carried out on time. All records and documents in
hand. Non-smoker, no pets or kids
have ever been in this car. Just
under 12,000 miles on the clock. Full Warranty and Carefree maintenance package
until May 2015 or 36,000 miles. Power train warranty until May 2017 or 60,000
miles. Premium 8 RCD 510 sound with satellite radio (not subscribed) and
media/i phone/i touch connectivity but you don’t need i tunes music, just
listen to the car. Mobile phone
package with blue tooth. I have
both sets of keys. Don’t even ask about the MPG because if you care you don’t
want this car, but it’s better than a Corvette or a Mustang. Clear title in
hand. This is a private sale. Professional Inspection is welcome. Buyer
is responsible for collection. |

Take a listen to the Volkswagen ID 3 and Koenigsegg Jesko
Sun, Dec 15 2019What could better demonstrate our diametric vehicular future than sound clips of the Volkswagen ID 3 and the Koenigsegg Jesko? Battery-electric vehicles don't make enough noise on their own, so VW partnered with composer Leslie Mandoki for the legally-mandated Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (AVAS) that warns pedestrians and cyclists of the EV's presence. Mandoki — a German-Hungarian who once played drums in a Euro disco band called Dschinghis Khan — was asked to come up with a sound for the ID 3 that VW said "defines its identity," "radiates safety and the promise of effortless mobility," and that "must also impress with its unique character." The definition of the ID 3's single-motor, 201-horsepower character is this: Occupants and people around the hatch can hear the sound as the car accelerates to 18.6 mph, and when reversing. At higher speeds, the sound of wind resistance and tire noise takes over. As our library of AVAS tones grows, it's clear that EVs will provide a soundscape as varied as that of internal combustion engines. Here, for instance, is the industrial thrum used as the Karma Revero GT's pedestrian warning: And here is the sci-fi soaring from the BMW Vision M Next, as composed by Hans Zimmer: At the other end of the aural chamber, we have the Koenigsegg Jesko. In this case, the composer is a 5.0-liter twin-turbo V8 running on a bio-ethanol E85 blend that's almost suitable for IndyCar, powering the engine up to 1,600 horsepower. Output on pump gas will be 'only' 1,281 hp. The Swedish automaker released a clip of the exhaust note of a car in progress inside the Angelhom factory. Here's what we can look forward to: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. All these sounds have a place at the table, even if we'd prefer Karma booked some time with a producer and an Autotune session. To paraphrase Sesame Street, though, one of these sounds is definitely not like the other.
Help a couple drive their 1984 Vanagon around the world
Mon, 22 Apr 2013Meet Brad, Sheena and Nacho
Driving through China is a pricey proposition. The couple will need to pony up a staggering $19,514 just to cover the fees.
Brad and Sheena Van Orden are in the midst of a life-defining campaign to travel around the world, and they're doing it in a 1984 Volkswagen Vanagon custom built for the occasion. The past 15 months have seen the couple quit their jobs with Gore-Tex and drive from Arizona to the very southern tip of Argentina after spending a full two years saving and preparing for the trek. Now they're in southern Asia gearing up for the next leg of their journey.
