2012 VW Jetta TDI with 38,XXX miles. Dealer maintained every 10k miles as recommended by VW. This is my daily driver and the miles will be increasing some.

Green title, no accidents, garage kept, non-smoker. There is a lien/loan on title, so the easiest way to complete this transaction would be at a Chase Bank - who is the lien holder.

Key Features - Black Leatherette interior, Touchscreen Navigation system/DVD (has a built in hard drive), Fender premium sound system, Keyless access w/ push-button start, heated seats, fog lights, heated power mirrors...5 year/60k mile powertrain warranty still in effect

This VW Diesel is rated at 30/42 MPG, but people routinely get better gas mileage out of their TDIs. On a couple long trips to Chicago, I've been close to getting 700 miles on 1 tank of gas. The norm is probably around 550 with a decent amount of highway miles, but if you're driving mostly city it would probably be closer to 450 per tank. It's not uncommon for people to get up to 50-60 MPG with these TDIs

Extras

Standard Navigation system is the RNS-315, I have upgraded to the RNS-510. The 510 has a 6.5" touchscreen and better resolution, compared to the 315 with a 5" screen. This new radio cost around $2k and was professionally installed. This is not factored in the sticker price (see photo).

Extra set of (4) VW mats - original mats were used once when the vehicle was driven home from the dealer, only used TDI Monster Mats after that.

Extra set of (4) rims/tires - Volkswagen Karthoum 18" Wheels (black). Tires have about 14k miles on them. Current wheels on the car are standard 16" alloy with all season tires with about 24k miles on them. Both sets have significant amount of tread left. The 18" wheels and tires new cost is over $2k. This is not on the sticker price and I do have the receipt if needed. (the only picture I have with the black rims was from when I originally purchased the Jetta, which I've included)

Transferable wheel/tire warranty 5 years from purchase which cost was $599. Purchase date was 9/29/11, so that puts the expiration date at 9/29/16. I believe the transfer fee is $40 dollars to NSD.

Windows were tinted at the dealer at the time of purchase.

The window sticker does reflect the option for Front/Rear Valance and side sill extensions. This is the ground effects body kit that was installed at factory, special ordered. If you're going to KBB to get a value, this is not an option or factored in. As you can see from the window sticker photo, this option cost $1950.

Negatives - The rear passenger door has 2 minor marks, I'd say they are slightly larger than a pin head from what I think was someone hitting it with a shopping cart. The Karthoum wheels do have a little curb rash (2), one a little more than the other - not too noticeable. I will provide some pictures of these items upon request.

Contact Craig @ (two-four-eight) EIGHT 54..6228. Serious inquiries only please. These TDIs go for every bit of blue book value, so there isn't much room for negotiation.

Porsche again staring down another $1.8B in hedge fund lawsuits

Wed, 15 May 2013

The sequence of events from 2007 that began with Porsche's secret attempt to take over Volkswagen, and instead lead to Porsche being taken over by VW, continues to instigate lawsuits against the Stuttgart sports car manufacturer. A group of hedge funds that suffered over $1 billion in losses sued the car company in New York. Porsche had publicly stated it wasn't trying to buy VW, the hedge funds in question were shorting VW stock, and when Porsche's actual intentions were revealed, the stock shot up and the hedge funds took a beating.
The case was thrown out over the issue of jurisdiction, then appealed, only to see another suit filed on top of that. After that, most of the hedge funds withdrew their claims in New York and Porsche offered a 90-day window to refile in Germany where it is already fighting a number of other suits over the same issue. The hedge funds accepted the offer, refiling in Stuttgart for $1.8 billion in damages. According to Bloomberg, Porsche hasn't commented on the refiling, but as the same plaintiffs are involved, it's safe to assume that the carmaker still feels the case is "unsubstantiated and without merit." It has fared alright so far even in German courts, with two lesser cases against it thrown out last year.

Audi investing $30.3 billion through 2018 for product expansion

Sun, 29 Dec 2013

How does Audi plan to reach two million units in annual sales and pay for the 11 new models it's adding to its lineup - an expansion that may include models named SQ2, Q9 and F-Tron? By increasing its investment to 22 billion euros ($30.3 billion US) between now and 2018. That figure represents an increase of about 500 million euros over the previously planned outlay, according to a report by Automotive News, and that could be due to Audi wishing to goad the momentum that pushed it to 1.5 million annual sales two years ahead of schedule.
It's also about staving off the challenges from BMW and Mercedes-Benz. Now that BMW has been able to turn some of its attention away from its "i" series of Megacity cars, it will reportedly spend more than planned in 2014 as it continues the rollout of ten all-new vehicles and 15 new-generation vehicles through the end of next year. Mercedes, having been dropped to third in the sales race, is preparing to add 13 new cars over the next six years.
Audi's money is going into technology, into product like the next-generation TT and the Q1 and production expansions and upgrades all over the world. The expenditure represents just under a fourth of Volkswagen's 84.2 billion-euro ($115.7 US) outlay devoted to taking the number-one global automaker title away from General Motors and Toyota by 2018.
