2004 Volkswagen Golf R32 4Motion
We refer to it as the Purple People Eater, or the SleepR. Yes, it really is an R32. VIN# WVWKG61J74D127583. Clean title, clean Carfax. Just under 109k. Originally a Reflex Silver R32. Still silver under the Matte Purple Royal wrap. This car is loaded with extras and a blast to drive. Lots of compliments on this "nice GTI". If you can handle people not knowing you have an R32, and if you can handle the attention it brings, this may be the car for you. We understand that this car may not be for everyone, but definitely a unique R32. First off, the front and rear bumpers have obviously been swapped for non-R bumpers. The front is a 337 bumper and lower valance. The rear bumper is the 337 with Euro TDI valance. No cut out. The dual tip exhaust is behind the valance, modified to point down. We do not have the OEM bumpers, so please do not ask for them. Side mirrors have been swapped for Euro stubby mirrors. Rear hatch completely shaved. Hood notch filled and badgeless grill up front. The interior still has all it's original OEM Koenig seats. They are the full leather seats. They are in great shape. All OEM interior parts and pieces that you would expect to find on an R32. iPod iPhone connection to the OEM factory radio. Interior is in great shape. Exterior has recently been wrapped with 3M material. Color is called Matte Purple Royal. In the door jams, and engine bay you will still see the silver paint. The wrap is only a few weeks old so it is in great shape. No damage on the vinyl. This R has a bunch of extras: Wheels are CCW Classics - Fronts 18x9.5, Rears 18x10 42 Draft Design 15mm 5x100-5x112 Adaptors Techtonics Tuning 264/260 24V Billet Cams ECS Cold Air Intake Morosco catch can w/ AN fittings and braided line Bluewater Performance/UM E85 tune, Stage 1 Bluewater Performance Fuel Rail, Fuel Pressure Regulator, AN fittings and braided lines HPA Competition Haldex Controller Integrated Engineering SAI block off plate JDL Prototype Mid Pipe JDL 24V R32 Prototype Headers Vmaxx coilovers Custom Magnaflow Catback Exhaust Autotech Drilled and Slotted Rotors - front and rear USP Motorsports Stainless Steel Brake Lines Porsche Brake Pads HPA short shifter Mishimoto Radiator Mishimoto Oil Cooler AEM UEGO Gauge 42 Draft Design B Pillar Gauge mount Defi Oil Temp Gauge We do not have any extra or stock parts for this car.

Volkswagen iBeetle gets integrated iPhone dock, little else
Fri, 19 Apr 2013Apple fans have been itching to see the tech giant flex the full muscle of its iOS operating system in an automotive infotainment system for years, which is why we turned all sorts of excited when we caught wind of the Volkswagen iBeetle. The machine is headed to the Shanghai Motor Show for a debut, and VW promised it would be one of the "first cars in the world to have a genuine integrative interface for the iPhone that was coordinated with Apple." Listen closely, and you can hear the contented sigh of a million wallets opening.
Go ahead and close those up, kids.
In reality, the iBeetle offers little more than a dash-mounted dock and a special app that shows a few vehicle functions, which is about as far from an infotainment revolution as you're likely to find. In fact, the setup is little more than a factory rehash of aftermarket items, and hardly worth a whole model debut at an international motor show. And that's to say nothing of the fact that Apple relishes in changing the shape and form of its darling handheld at every generation. Volkswagen better be prepared to keep pace with appropriate docking mechanisms for the upcoming iPhone 5S, 6, 6S, et al.
Volkswagen lays off 500 Chattanooga workers
Fri, 19 Apr 2013The redesigned Volkswagen Passat has been a decent seller since its debut in 2011, but sales have apparently dropped off enough that the automaker is trimming some of the employees from its Chattanooga, TN assembly plant. According to Automotive News, Volkswagen will be cutting shifts and laying off 500 contracted workers in response to slowing sales.
Currently, the plant has three teams running 10-hour shifts Monday through Saturday, but starting May 13, this will be reduced down to two teams running 10-hour shifts Monday through Thursday. This will be done to reduce dealer inventory (the article says that VW dealers, on average, have a 97-day supply of Passats) and production capacity (currently running at an annual pace of 170,000 units, which is more than the 150,000 annual units the plant was planned to produce).
This, of course, isn't saying that the Passat has been a failure since VW added 200 full-time employees to the plant in February 2012 to keep up with increased demand. The AN article says that automakers frequently overstaff plants during the launch of a new product - or in this case, a new product and a new plant - but eventually reduce the workers as things run smoother and more efficiently.
Volkswagen considering a four-door, four-seat XL1
Fri, 22 Aug 2014According to a report in Autocar, Volkswagen might have more in mind for the XL1 than mining it for advances to grace the next-generation Golf. Aiming to fight the Honda FCEV due for public consumption next year, we're told VW executives have put a four-door, four-seater version of the XL1 - it could be called XL2 - on the drawing board. The impetus is said to come from the top, with VW Group chairman Ferdinand Piëch intent on staying in the deep end of "super-efficent vehicles."
Autocar suspects the necessary changes could raise the weight of the car from 1,749 pounds to 2,068 pounds, which would make it four pounds less than the 2,072-pound Up! we drove a few years ago. Crucially, however, the mag thinks the extra capacity wouldn't change the two-seater's 310-mile-per-gallon rating, with tech tweaks and the aerodynamic benefit of a longer car offsetting the weight. Speculation is that the back seats would be staggered like the fronts in order to maintain the XL1's overall profile.
We recently heard about another XL1 variant that's gone off the radar entirely, the Ducati-engined XLR that we thought we'd see at the Geneva Motor Show and that was said to be going into production, so this one could go the same way. The biggest hurdle to making such an idea a reality, though, could be the price: the current XL1 costs 110,000 euros ($146,116). If VW really is going to compete with the Honda FCEV and the Toyota FCV - $70,000 in Japan - that might be where it wants to start.
