2006 VW Passat 3.6 4Motion (All Wheel Drive) with Sport Package (not the slow-poke Luxury pkg as the title states, Ebay wouldn't let me change the title)  

This car has been well maintained, VERY reliable - never had any major mechanical problems. Always serviced regularly (records available) and I run only synthetic oil through it. Always garaged. I am a non-smoker and have owned the car since 79,000 miles/2010 (Highway miles since then to the airport and back). I'm only the 2nd owner. Have lots of manuals and all the original books ect. I recently purchased brand new 2nd key fob from VW for $270 so now have two (one as a back-up that has never been used). Both keys are programmed and ready to go. Have lots of maintenance receipts. This is not a perfect car, but it is extremely well cared for. The wheels up close do have some rash on them. There is also 1 small (hard to find) dent right behind the drivers exterior door handle. A few minor small knicks but nothing major. The Blue Book value for the car with these miles and options is $8,300 (Good) $8,600 (Very Good) and $9,100 (Excellent) Recent Extreme Contour DWS tires this winter. Car is driven to and from the office, and also to the airport picking up clients. That's about all it does. 

EVERYTHING WORKS Flawlessly! Windows, sunroof, cruise control, powerful 6 CD changer Stereo system. The only thing that just recently started acting up is the GPS screen and I have just ordered a refurbished unit that just arrived today. The current installed unit never had the nav CD (I always use my phone so never cared) and the radio & 6 CD Changer function perfectly, just the right side of the screen shrinks as you can see in picture. I will be including the refurbished unit with the car and you can decide whether to install it or not. Again, i wouldn't have ordered the replacement unit if i weren't selling, but figured people would complain so i just bought it. It is not a NEW unit, it was removed from another Passat and has been successfully function tested by the seller. Probably the best car i have ever driven in the winter, the AWD is unbelievable. I am 6'7" tall and now need an SUV for more cargo space My wife wants me to buy an SUV as a back-up mini-van for our huge double stroller ect :( Going to miss the sporty-ness of this tight car, it GOES!!! Tons of power especially when you put it in "S" sport mode, trust me.  

My family buys and sells corporate aircraft for a living so honesty in selling an airplane can be a difference in life and death as you can imagine. I take on the same level of honesty when selling a car as well and I don't like being surprised when going to look at an airplane or car so you shouldn't be surprised either with this one. it's a sharp, very clean car as pictures illustrate.

Car is going in for the 140,000 mile VW factory maintenance check-up. Car has no annunciator lights on, no Excuses car that anyone would be PROUD to own! I have clear Wisconsin title in my name, ready to be signed over to new owner. I can help with any reasonable transportation/shipping to load it up on a trailer if needed here in Burlington if you are not able to be here. Any questions, please email. 

Car is available for viewing in Burlington, Wisconsin at our office/corporate hangar 9-5 weekdays.

Honda, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Mercedes also under diesel emissions scrutiny

Sat, Oct 10 2015

The controversy over Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal isn't limited to the US. In Europe, where diesel engines are far more popular, the issue is shining a harsh light on the NEDC emissions test. As already known, the evaluation does a poor job of reflecting real-world production of NOx, and it appears a significant number of automakers are affected. The Guardian in the UK has been reporting on real-world test results from a company called Emissions Analytics. After the latest round of checks, vehicles from Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Mazda and Mitsubishi were found to generate far more NOx than they should. The newspaper also published similar results for Renault, Nissan, Hyundai, Fiat, Volvo, Jeep, Citroen, VW, and Audi. On average, the figures are about four times over the limit of producing the pollutant. Unlike VW and its defeat device, these automakers aren't actually breaking the rules. The vehicles perform up to the NEDC lab test for emissions, but those results simply aren't translated to the street. "The VW issue in the US was purely the trigger which threw light on a slightly different problem in the EU - widespread legal over-emissions," Nick Molden from Emissions Analytics said to The Guardian. A big fight to decide the future of this issue appears to be on the horizon. Automakers claim that they can't meet the next round of tightening emissions regulations and are asking for compromises. Although, spokespeople for Mercedes and Honda told The Guardian that the brands would be in favor of the stricter rules. Meanwhile, some European governments began backtracking their support of diesels well before this scandal came to light. The added scrutiny certain hasn't helped the future of the oil-burner.

Volkswagen C Coupe GTE bows in Shanghai

Sun, Apr 19 2015

Following the debut of the slick, semi-aggressive Sport Coupe GTE concept in Geneva, Volkswagen is bringing something a bit more grandiose to the Shanghai Motor Show. It's called the C Coupe GTE, and it points the way forward for Volkswagen's large sedans – in China, at least. The C Coupe GTE is low and long, and rides on the same Volkswagen MLB platform that underpins vehicles like the Audi A6. Volkswagen's head of design, Klaus Bischoff, says "the C Coupe GTE very clearly shows the new 'face' of top Volkswagen sedans for the first time," so get used to this design. We think it's pretty attractive, and a car like this could easily work as an upper-tier CC replacement. But don't get your hopes up too much – VW USA says this concept was "designed chiefly for the Chinese market." That's evident inside, where the C Coupe boasts a four-passenger seating configuration with luxurious accommodations for folks in back. In fact, backseat riders can share data with the driver via the car's infotainment system. "Information about the manager's appointments can be transferred via a smartphone to the infotainment system," says Volkswagen. "Parallel to this, the appointment list also serves to plan the navigation route for the day. However, the chauffeur only has specifically filtered information for the infotainment system to facilitate punctual arrival at the destination." Like other GTE-badged models, the C Coupe uses a plug-in hybrid powertrain. That means it's got a four-cylinder turbocharged gasoline engine, an electric motor, and a 14.1-kWh lithium-ion battery, all mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Total system output is 242 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque, and Volkswagen says the C Coupe can travel up to 31 miles in electric mode (at speeds up to 81 miles per hour). Hitting 62 mph takes 8.6 seconds, but when driven economically, Volkswagen says the sedan can achieve up to 102 miles per gallon (on the Euro cycle) and cruising range is a whopping 684 miles. See the C Coupe GTE for yourself in the slideshow above, and scroll down for a huge helping of information in VW's press blast. VOLKSWAGEN DEBUTS C COUPE GTE IN SHANGHAI New plug-in hybrid concept car points the way to the future of large Volkswagen sedans Wolfsburg/Shanghai, April 2015 - Volkswagen is expanding its model range at high speed and the latest show of this intent is on display at Auto Shanghai-the C Coupe GTE.

How the Volkswagen cheating probe developed

Tue, Sep 22 2015

Fallout from Volkswagen's revelation that it engaged in cheating on emissions testing continued Monday, with the company's stock falling more than 15 percent and a Congressional subcommittee announcing an investigation into the German auto giant's conduct. Both the Environmental Protection Agency and California Air Resources Board served Volkswagen with a Notice of Violation on Friday, saying the company intentionally circumvented emissions standards by using "defeat devices." Here's a look back at the agencies' emissions enforcement history and how the charges involving Volkswagen developed. August 1998 – Honda spends $267 million to settle charges it violated the Clean Air Act by disabling "misfire monitoring devices" installed on more than 1.6 million vehicles. Ford spends $7.8 million to settle a charge it violated the Clean Air Act by installing defeat devices on 60,000 Ford Econoline vans. May 2014 – Working with the International Council on Clean Transportation, researchers at West Virginia University find significantly higher in-use emissions from a 2012 Jetta and 2013 Passat and alert the EPA to their findings. November 3, 2014 – Korean automakers Hyundai and Kia agree to pay a $100 million fine for overstating the fuel economy on several of their models by as much as six miles per gallon. In announcing the fine, government officials sought to make an example of the two companies to deter further cheating. VW officials admit the vehicles were designed with a defeat device to "bypass, defeat and render inoperative elements of the vehicle emissions control systems." "This type of conduct quite simply will not be tolerated," said then-Attorney General Eric Holder. "And the Justice Department will never rest or waver in our determination to take action against any company that engages in such activities – whenever and wherever they are uncovered." December 2, 2014 – Following discussions that stemmed from West Virginia University's findings, Volkswagen agrees to initiate a recall of 500,000 cars. The company says a software update will fix the nitrous oxide trap technology and selective catalytic reduction technology causing the cars to miss emissions thresholds. May 6, 2015 – CARB wanted to see whether the software fix implemented by Volkswagen worked. Using portable emissions measurement systems, the regulatory officials found NOx emissions were still significantly higher than expected.
