Volkswagen Golf Vr6 Gti 5speed Swap177k Clean Title Quick!!!! on 2040-cars
San Diego, California, United States
I bought this little car believing I would want to have it for the street.I invested just about $2k in the engine alone.It is a 1997 chassis GTI.Formerly it was a 1.8 four cylinder.When I got the car it had a VR6 swap done on it but the engine was toast.I located a 100k mile year 2000 VR6 locally, and after much work and rewiring she is a little screamer.It has so much power on tap that a simple push of the gas pedal lights the tires up.The 5 speed is tight and clutch is strong.Probably why the last motor bearings got fried,racing the crap out of it.Anyhow she is a runner /driver once again.This car is a very quick little machine and a total sleeper with no VR6 badging what so ever.The paint is fair as is the interior.The suspension is all after market and adjustable front and rear.The tires are good as are the brakes and rotors.I have a sway bar bushing kit that goes with it.The car has hi flow cats and large diameter hi flow exhaust.She is loud when you nail the throttle and quiet when you are driving sane.And that is the hard part. Even after having the fun I am having I dont really see me keeping this car regardless as I am 54 and this is a bit much for me.It has Neuspeed strut brace as well.I will happily help you arrange shipment to your location.I am interested in a out of state purchase as California wants you to jump thru hoops to get smog done.Those days are gone here.This car is not not to far from being a race car in my opinion.She has a current clean California title and a bill of sale.The car fax should tell you any holes in the history.Thanks and good luck

Volkswagen and Funny or Die take humorous spin in 2015 Golf
Wed, 10 Sep 2014Volkswagen is partnering with Target and Funny or Die in a bizarre ad for the latest Golf starring comedian Rob Huebel, probably best known for his work on Childrens Hospital on Adult Swim.
The commercial is titled The Way Too Helpful Neighbor and stars Huebel as the eponymous neighbor. The challenge is for Huebel to help improve his buddy's apartment before the guy meets his girlfriend's parents for the first time. The obvious way to do that is to slide a new Golf through an actual Target in Texas, while simultaneously showcasing the store's goods and the car's features.
The commercial is airing online now and on TBS during breaks in Conan O'Brien's show, with sneak peaks during other programs on the network. Auto advertising is becoming pretty normal for Funny or Die at this point, though, with the site previously partnering with Fiat for several videos. Check out the ad above and see if you think it works. Scroll down for VW's announcement.
VW Up Buggy may be headed to showrooms
Tue, 02 Jul 2013Volkswagen showed six conceptual takes on its Up at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show, one of those being the Up Buggy. Although few will probably remember it, VW has not forgotten it, applying for a patent for the Meyers Manx revival roadster way back in March 2012 and being approved in June of this year, according to a report in Autocar. That will give the automaker a 14-year lock on the design while it decides whether to move forward with a reboot of its past.
A patent doesn't mean the Up Buggy will ever move beyond the sheet-of-paper stage, but Autocar says VW is studying the market to see if a production version is feasible. We can't see North America ever getting it, but even so, we wouldn't complain if they made it - especially if they put an exposed engine in back that was set off by 18-inch-long twin tailpipes jutting straight up into the air. However, for a company that aims to be the world's number-one automaker by 2018, a niche vehicle for its mass-market brand would be a surprising use of resources.
VW builds 250,000th Passat in Chattanooga in just two years
Sun, 26 May 2013It hasn't been without incident or union organizing drive, but the Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga, TN has built its 250,000 Passat in just a little over two years. The Night Blue Passat TDI with black leather has come just two years and five weeks after the first customer car came off the line on April 18, 2011.
In the last year the plant operated at the 150,000-unit capacity that it was intended for, but the downturn in Passat sales and subsequent worker layoffs mean it will be a challenge to repeat the feat. The plant does have the world's largest solar park, though, and you can't take that away from them.
You'll find the official hand-clapping in the press release below.
