You are looking at a 2006 VW JETTA TDI 169900 miles on it but currently driving this vehicle so this number may change within a few miles. I purchased this Jetta to get it up to date and make it my daily driver for my work, but turns out the company I work for just purchased us new cars. The car drives perfectly and is ready to go anywhere. As you can see I have gone ahead and updated the the front clip with the GLI front (looks great) and replaced the headlights to headlights with Halo's and LED strips. I will describe the car to the best of my ability, I have put a lot of money in repairs to get her 100% and should easily do 100,000 miles without any problems or any repairs. If you have any questions please ask, I am a VW TDI fanatic, my wife owns an MK6 and I have always owned TDI's. This is a great car, great future commuter car or just a great car to have a rare vehicle that looks like a real GLI but actually a TDI, you get the best of both worlds TDI MPG & GLI looks. The 2005-2006 Jetta TDI's are the best TDI jetta's personally since they are Pre-DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) which reduces MPG significantly on the newer Jettas.
The Good:

Upgraded GLI front end upgrade
Upgraded Headlights with Halo's & LED strips
Taillights have been blacked out lightly to match the car
Replaced marker lights to match sporty style
All tires are 80% tread.
AC Blows very cold
Heated Seats work perfectly on both seats
Power Windows all work perfectly in all windows
Vehicle does not have a single leak (no engine, transmission oil leaks or coolant system leaks)
To get car ready for being my commuter car about 2 months ago I got the following work done (I have receipts)
Water Pump, Timing Chain, Serpentine Belt, Oil Change, Fuel Filter, Air Filter, Cabin Air Filter, Alternator, Battery (still under warranty for 3 years), Front Rotors & Brakes
1 month ago I got the Clutch and flywheel assembly done since the flywheel started to make some noise.
I upgraded the stereo system to the Double-din Pioneer App radio, works great with iPhones via bluetooth or cables provided
Tinted windows 35% legal & window sticker certification
Paint & Body get a 9 out of 10 paint is in great condition and overall looks great, no chips or faded areas
Interior get a 9.5 out of 10 looks great, all power buttons work, interior is very clean has original carpets, no tears and overall interior has been well maintained.
Vehicle recently passed NC inspection and has no lights on in the dash

The Bad:

This vehicle was involved in a wreck, the car damage wasn't actually that bad, airbags did not deploy and parts replaced included hood, radiator support & fenders and this was when I took the opportunity to upgrade the front clip to the GLI style Jetta MK5 front. The original cooling system was used and actually A/C system was never discharged or recharged since none of these items were replaced or damaged. The damage was mainly on the upper section of the hood, taking most of the impact from the wreck, vehicle did not have frame damage and currently does not have any type of damage and as you can see from the pictures does not look as if it ever had been in an accident. I drive this car regularly and enjoy averaging about 50 MPG easily and vehicle does not shake at all, drives great overall unfortunately the vehicle was branded Salvage (to be honest unjustly). I currently have it insured with GEICO and didn't have any issues getting it registered. Overall I give the car a 8.5 out of 10 and the 1/2 point loss would be due to the salvage title. This vehicle has always had the routine 10K miles service and 100K and recently 160K Timing belt and clutch/flywheel. You will not be disappointed with this car and if you are looking for a dependable car, this car cannot be beat since currently its fully up to date on service.

If you have any questions please ask, I can pick up anyone from RDU (Raleigh-Durham Airport) and this vehicle can basically drive anywhere. As previously stated I am only selling this car because I honestly am not driving it much and after all of the upgrades and repairs I have done to this car its ready to go on the road. I require a $500 paypal deposit within 48 hours of purchase, only serious buyers, I will report fake or spoof buyers. I can hold on to car as long as needed and if you need the vehicle shipped I can help with making arrangements for shipping or dropping off at nearest port. The remaining balance will be required within 7 days via wire transfer or as soon as vehicle is picked up with a certified cashiers check or cash. I have used eBay over 10+ years and I can try to help and work with you as best as I can, within reason.

Happy Bidding and if you need any other information please feel free to let me know. I will be uploading some more pictures of the car later in the week and if theres a picture in particular you would like feel free to let me know.

Volkswagen CrossBlue Coupe is a green fun-machine we want to drive

Fri, 19 Apr 2013

Think back to January's Detroit Auto Show. Those of you that are fans of the Volkswagen brand, impressed with green technology or simply fall into the "diesel geek" category, will almost certainly remember VW's CrossBlue concept with its diesel/electric hybrid powertrain, seating for seven, and somewhat awkward crossover styling. It was an impressive piece of future tech, to be sure, though it left something to be desired in the, well, desirability department.
Here in Shanghai, VW has brought along a CrossBlue Coupe concept that would seem to include most of the goodness of the original, but flavored with more sport and style this time around.
The CrossBlue Coupe makes use of the same electric drive components as the larger three-row concept: two electric motors (front and rear) powered by a 9.8-kWh lithium-ion battery. However, where the original concept made use of a TDI four-cylinder, the Coupe substitutes a 295-horsepower, direct-injection, gasoline-burning V6.

Honda wins Commercial of the Decade, but not for the ad you think [w/VIDEO]

Honda's Commercial of the Decade: "Grrr" - Click above to watch video
The mad men at Adweek recently voted for the Commercial of the Decade (Super Bowl commercials not included) and Honda took top honors over memorable ads from the last ten years by companies like Nike, Budweiser and Sony. That's not a big surprise considering Honda often puts a huge amount of effort into its on-air spots. However, the Japanese automaker didn't win for the commercial you might have expected: "Cog." Though Honda's famous commercial that breaks down a European Accord Tourer into a Rube Goldberg-esque machine was also a finalist, it was beaten by another Honda commercial called "Grrr" that's narrated by Garrison Keillor of all people. You've probably never seen it, but you can after the jump.
Volkswagen also made the list of finalists, but the particular ad chosen out of all the comical VW ads we've seen was unexpected as well. Most surprising carmaker with a commercial in the finals: Saturn. Who knew...

VW readying new VR6 with forced induction

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

Volkswagen built a stonking, narrow-angle V6 in the 1980s and 1990s that was found in three different generations of the Golf (their performance iterations, obviously), three generations of the Passat, the New Beetle, the Corrado and the Touareg, among other VWs, a spate of Audis, Seats, a Skoda, and even the Porsche Cayenne. It was a sad day when it was announced that it'd be put out to pasture.
Rejoice, though, fans of the venerable VR6, because Volkswagen has a new, modern variant in the works that, according to AutoWeek, features direct injection and can easily be fitted with forced induction. In fact, AW mentions Volkswagen insiders that claim this unit will spawn a production version of the twin-turbo V6 shown on the Design Vision GTI from this year's Wörthersee festival. That unit produced an epic 503 horsepower and 413 pound-feet of torque.
Don't expect a production unit with that level of power (although it would make a hardy RS4 powerplant), though. In reality, AutoWeek is suspecting anywhere from 340 to 450 horsepower from the new mill. When it arrives at an undisclosed date in the future, it'll likely be found in the Passat and Passat CC as well as the production version of the CrossBlue.
