1971 Vw Karmann Ghia Coupe on 2040-cars
Williamsport, Pennsylvania, United States
|
1971 VW Karmann Ghia. I will do my best to describe the car. I recently inherited the car and cannot drive it due to physical issues. The car was well cared for mechanically, recent tune up, generator, oil change. While the pictures don't do the interior justice, it is free of rips and tears, the carpeting has been replaced. IT needs cleaned due to the windows being down in a dusty old garage, but it's nothing a car wash can't clean up. Suffice to say I believe the interior was restored when the exterior was and has held up amazingly well The paint is great from 20 feet however upon close inspection you can see it's age. It has lots of shine however the body work has flaws that are starting to show. Due to the bright paint they issues do not show up in pictures...like I said it's great from 20feet. I know a lot of money was spent on the car however I do not have receipts. The car runs, drives and shifts great...a local VW mechanic said it was sound mechanically however it will need the heater channels repaired to have interior heat. The pan is solid however the body has been refinished. IT is missing a few things, a trunk latch is needed and it has a beetle fuel tank which requires you to open the front trunk and fill from there. I have too many classic cars and this one quite honestly doesn't fit with my muscle cars and it's time to thin the heard. This would make a great little vacation cottege car or summer round the town driver.

NA auto output to reach 11-year peak
Thu, 13 Jun 2013According to Automotive News, automakers are expected to manufacture 16 million light vehicles in North America in 2013. That's up 500,000 units from last year and marks the largest number since 2002. The prediction comes courtesy of LMC Automotive and IHS Automotive, which point to the improving US economy as a bellwether for total production. LMC Automotive says North America will produce 16 million vehicles while IHS has a slightly more optimistic forecast of 16.1 million units. A total of seven automakers are slated to increase production on the continent this year. Nissan is set to see the largest jump at 20 percent over last year.
Volkswagen, meanwhile, is one of the only manufacturers predicted to scale back production. Analysts expect the German company's output to fall by 23 percent to 170,000 units, thanks in part to slow demand for the Volkswagen Passat and Jetta.
Volkswagen NMC production guise caught in China
Tue, 29 Apr 2014Chinese car site Autohome has what are said to be the first pictures of the Volkswagen New Midsize Coupe concept in production form. VW's NMC was just introduced at the Beijing Motor Show, while background chatter indicated it would go on sale in China, Autohome says that production version will be built at the Shanghai-Volkswagen plant in Ningbo, and the retail guise could be introduced at the Guangzhou Motor Show in November and go on sale that same month.
Assuming this is the production car, its main lines have made the jump from the concept but with less fine detailing, a silver hue and with conventional VW wheels it's lost a little bit of oomph. Still, a few checkmarks on the option sheet can fix most of that, the shape remains handsome and the 2.0-liter turbo underhood keeps performance peppy and mileage frugal enough. You can head to Autohome for a couple more photos of a sedan we'd be happy to make room for over here.
New VW Beetle Convertible ad needs no disguise
Mon, 18 Feb 2013Convertibles make you do funny things. Ask someone if they'd drive a hardtop in near freezing temperatures with all the windows down and they might not even answer, thinking the question so ridiculous. Give that same person a convertible they love and you might just have to ask them to please put the top up even when snow is on the ground.
That guy has to take precautions to enjoy his proclivities, and as this new ad for the Volkswagen Beetle Convertible shows, not everyone understands. Have a watch below, and note that there's just one woman in the minute-long spot, and she's nowhere near the car. Seriously, why didn't VW run this commercial during the Super Bowl?
