Okay, where do I start? Firstly, I dont need to sell the car, but Ive got my eyes on something else, and I cant go forward with that until I free up some space. Ive been through it all with this car. Blood, sweat, tears, anger, frustration, excitement, and a few bank accounts. Been building the car since I purchased it new, nearly 4 years ago. I can finally say the car is as perfect as it can get, and running stronger than ever. The car has never been in any accidents. The only damage it ever had was a front bumper that got damaged from road debris. I have since purchased a new OEM bumper. The car has now gone through a full metal widebody build with matching front and rear bumpers. Both front and rears have been widened approximately an extra 2.5. All work has been done by Decaudellas in Melbourne, FL. . The body on the car is a 9.5/10.Currently the only cosmetic flaw is a small chip on left side of rear bumper. I can get a picture for those serious. Those that are familiar with Clay and his shop (Decaudellas), know that his work is nothing short of perfect, show quality. Around the same time, I had a custom 4 point roll cage built for the car and powder coated white to match the exterior. It is easily removable if desired. Along with cage, 4 point harnesses also went in. The only people that have ever touched this car are either myself, or almost always USP Motorsports in Coral Springs,FL - not even local VW dealers. Theyve done all of the major work on the car, from custom parts, to suspension, full engine and transmission build, etc, etc, etc. I have receipts and invoices of every single thing thats gone into the car or thats been done to it since the day I purchased it. Over $60k worth of labor and parts (I have ALL receipts). I gladly welcome PPI to those that are serious. For those that know the car, know it. Theres a 100+ page build thread on Vortex about the car, since the day I got it, and everything its been through. From the time it was bagged, to when I decided to go APR stage 3+, to an even bigger turbo upgrade with custom tuning, to the 10 second quarter mile runs, built head, etc etc.. I could go on and on about this car really, theres just way way way too much to list and talk about. If youre serious about the car, feel free to mesage me, and we can further discuss it. Ill also give you my phone number for direct contact if serious. And NO, I will not part out any of the car. On to specs: 2012 GLI6 Speed Manual23,xxx miles (car gets driven about 1-2 times every two or three weeks.)Single Owner car. I bought it new, and have had it ever since. Engine: Its bulletproof. The built head was finally put on and tested at about 18k miles. When the motor was apart at that same time, everything was checked, including pistons, rods, cylinder walls, compression, everything. The motor is perfect, healthy. Not a single hint of any problems, no leaks, nothing. The car currently has two custom APR tunes. One for 93 octane, which makes anywhere from 420-450 ish whp depending on boost settings, and a race gas tune which makes 520-580 whp depending on boost settings. There is a Greddy Profec Spec II boost controller to keep track of all that. Everything of which I will go over with whoever is serious about the car. Also have dyno sheets of everything, videos, etc. There was a new Precision 5858 turbo put in around 16k miles, so everything is like new. -Custom APR tune for 93 and race gas-IE Rods- Calico ceramic coated rod bearings-ARP head studs-balanced internals-Built head with full revised Ferrea TSi valvetrain kit-BSH catch can-BSH motor mounts, transmission mount, dog bone mount-APR intercooler-APR injectors-HEP custom aluminum intake manifold-USP throttle body pipe-APR Carbonio intake-APR stage3+ kit (modified)-USP low pressure fuel system-USP modified HPFP / fuel system-Upgraded coil packs-Modified APR exhaust manifold-Tial 5858 turbo-Forge diverter valve-Custom USP downpipe and full 3 exhaust, catless, muffler only-custom external wastegate dump-2 step/launch control (never used it, but easily adjusted to be used)-Braille lightweight lithium-ion battery with trickle charger (4 pounds) I know there is more to the list, and Im probably forgetting it.

Bosch fuel pumps spark recall of 2015 Golf, GTI and Audi A3
Tue, Apr 28 2015A few weeks ago, BMW and Nissan both issued recalls for some of their vehicles to replace Bosch-supplied fuel pumps. The pumps had nickel plating that could flake off and cause a failure. Volkswagen Group is the latest automaker to be affected by the problem and has a campaign for the 2015 Audi A3, VW Golf and GTI. In total, 6,204 units of these models are in need of repair. The problem with the VW Group vehicles is identical to the previous recalls. It's possible for the pump's nickel plating to come off and cause increased friction. Eventually, this can result in the component's failure. According to documents from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (as a PDF, here), there are no reports of accidents or injuries from this issue in the VW Group models. Bosch spokesperson Linda Beckmeyer tells Autoblog that these vehicles don't all necessary share an identical fuel pump, but the parts all use the same plating process. The problem also prompted repairs of the 2014 Ford Escape several months ago, she indicated. When asked if the issue could prompt more campaigns, Beckmeyer said that she "can't speak to that" because automakers decide on the recalls. Owners should receive notice of the problem soon, but according to the NHTSA documentation, there currently aren't enough pumps to fix all of these vehicles. "Bosch is working closely with automakers regarding replacement parts," Beckmeyer said. When available, dealers will replace the components free of charge for affected customers.

SUMMARY: Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Volkswagen) is recalling certain model year 2015 Volkswagen Golf, GTI, and Audi A3 vehicles. Improper nickel plating of components within the fuel pump may result in the fuel pump failing. CONSEQUENCE: If the fuel pump fails, the vehicle will not start, or if the engine is running, it will stop and the vehicle will stall, increasing the risk of a crash. REMEDY: Volkswagen will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles and replace any affected fuel pumps, free of charge.
VW launches cheaper 2016 e-Golf SE to challenge Nissan Leaf
Thu, Aug 6 2015Volkswagen is taking the fight to Nissan in the battle of EV hatchbacks for the 2016 model year with the new, less expensive e-Golf SE trim level. With a starting price of $29,815 (after $820 for destination but before incentives), the model undercuts the $29,860 2015 Leaf S (after $850 destination) by just $45. Lease rates are $199 a month. The 2016 e-Golf SEL Premium is $150 more than last year at $36,415, making the difference between the two trims a significant $6,600. VW isn't letting out much of the info on the SE yet, and the company's release simply says the trim "offers most of the features of the SEL Premium model." The new entry does come standard with a 3.6-kW onboard charger, and a 7.2-kW DC fast charging package is optional later in the year. Inside, there's VW's 6.5-inch MIB II infotainment system, versus an eight-inch version in the SEL Premium with the company's Car-Net App-Connect and Travel Link. The e-Golf is rated at an 83-mile range by the EPA, and it's electric motor produces 115 horsepower and 199 pound-feet of torque. The electric hatchback has already proven itself a moderate success in Europe through the first two months of 2015, and the VW actually beat the Leaf there in sales volume. In the US, the model has moved 1,831 examples through July, compared to 10,990 for the rival Nissan.
Volkswagen Passat gets Wolfsburg Edition, priced from $23,495*
Tue, 23 Apr 2013Volkswagen has just announced a new Passat Wolfsburg Edition, which slots between the base S and mid-grade SE trims in terms of content and price.

The Wolfsburg Passat will only be available with the 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine and a six-speed automatic transmission.
Look for the 2013 Wolfsburg Edition Passat to hit dealerships in the very near future, priced from $23,495, *not including $795 for destination. Have a look below for Volkswagen's official press blast.
