Clean tittle, dmv is fixing the issue where it says flood damage, cars not flooded, come and see, photo of clean title included in listing.
This is one of 5,000 R32's made in USA and its essentially an Audi TT all wheel drive sport car. With upgrades its around 300HP. These cars are rare and sell totaled at auctions for what im asking for as far as price, most of all the parts have been replaced ensuring that this car will give you lots of years before another part fails. Please read below as a lot has been done to this car.

Basics:
165,xxx miles many of which are highway.
Smoke and stain free, car smells good.
Oil changes every 4,ooo miles with mobile 1 synthetic.
Only premium gas used.
Interior is great, no rips or tears as well as the car smell is good and no pets were in car.
Exterior has signs of daily driving, left fender has a dent from ice and front hood has a spot where a small rock hit it leaving a white chip. Other than that car is great.
The car currently has a painted  black golf bumper, in the photo its the grey one at the end. This bumper was used for the winter and has cracks and chips.

The price is a steal, if you do not think so please research the car more as working r32's even with high miles sell on average of 10-12,000$+ and some with lower miles as high as 24,000$,  smashed at auction around 5-7,500$ which means repairs and bad title and more parts failing in the future. The biggest part in their popularity is that they are rare and expensive so if you are not ready to buy one at auction and fix it or spend a large amount to purchase one without issues than your not ready for an r32. This is basicaly and audi with almost all audi parts stock as well as some unique aditions like heated konig racing seats and aluminum trim and body kit stock. I suggest researching it more if you are not fully familiar with their price and rarity.

Now to the good stuff:
This car has thousands invested and is virtually brand new due to all the components Ive replaces recently.

Changed:
Nuespeed springs lowered, the car is very low.
Water pump 2-3 weeks ago.
Flywheel, bolts, clutch & pressure plate 3 months.
Air pump. 6 months ago.
Serpentine belt 2-3 weeks ago.
Timing chain 5 months ago.
Control arm bushings.
Front suspension & Bushings.
Rear suspension.
Trunk latch assembly and sensor.
Rear control arms lower x2, aftermarket race brand adjustable.
set of 4 new tires low profile all season.
New flex Down pipe.
New break pads all around with lifetime warranty.
Haldex filter.
Haldex oil.
Secondary radiator.
Thermostat and seal rings.
Breather air hose.
Rubber air hoses.
Coolant temp sensor.
brand New battery with warranty 1 month ago.

Mods:
Short shift.
Resinator button (Shuts off pipes so they're quiet at the flick of a switch.)
Black coated OEM Aristo rims.
Tint.
Radio cables ran for aftermarket radio system.
Glass aftermarket black headlights.
Black "magic colors" tail lights.
Black side marker and blinker lights with white LED's.
K&N intake pipe and carbon fiber intake cone (lifetime cleanable)
Aftermarket audio cables ran all way through for aftermarket system.
Added lighted jetta vents so there's more red lighting as with stock r32 not all the buttons glow.

The bad news:
This car over heats, a pressure test was ran and there was no leak detected, I have paper work for test, the oil has no water in it, the coolant tank has no oil in it and the car does not leak anywhere outside. The car has random overheating, comes and goes, runs and drives. The spark plugs need to be replaced as they misfired.
Code scan detected misfires due to the spark plugs misfiring on multiple cylinders, there are no other codes and I will have a code scaner at time with me to prove it as well as will have car runing for you at time of pick up to show you.
Back to the overheating....
VW said it could be a number of issues like air in the system, faulty parts like radiator, water pump, ect. I do not have time or money to diagnose the car and I purchased a bmw so having 3 cars is not an option especially after putting 5,000$ into this car already, price is a steal regardless of the miles or any issue it has. Please do not bid if you do not plan to buy or ask for a better deal, at this price with all the mods and parts its practically a gift so good luck to the winner and enjoy.

In the event that this car does not sell this time around I will not re-list it any longer, i will begine parting out the parts. Thank you for your interest, if you have any questions please call me at 413-523-9232. Good day.

Anti-UAW VW workers move to form own union

Sat, 30 Aug 2014

The struggle over unionization at the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga, TN, continues to get more complicated. There's now a second union fighting to organize at the plant; although this one is staunchly against the actions of the United Auto Workers. At the same time, the UAW is still signing up voluntary members to its recently created Local 42 at the facility and is reportedly near having a majority of the hourly employees on its side.
The new, anti-UAW union campaign is being spearheaded by employee Mike Burton, according to Reuters, and he calls his group the American Council of Employees. He claims to already have 108 signatures in support of his organization. Burton believes that the UAW is harmful to businesses, and his goal is to force another vote to determine a preferred union among workers.
The UAW was initially defeated (712 to 626) when it attempted a union vote at the Tennessee plant in February. However, UAW secretary-treasurer Gary Casteel told Reuters that Local 42 has already signed up over 700 members. If it can reach a majority of the roughly 1,500 employees, the group hopes VW might consider recognizing it as the factory's union.

Car Club USA: CleanMPG Northwest Rally

Tue, May 19 2015

Car Club USA heads to Los Angeles for the CleanMPG Northwest Rally, where a group of like-minded hypermiling enthusiasts led by Wayne Gerdes attempts to drive from Los Angeles, CA, to Bend, OR, on one tank of fuel. For this challenge, Wayne tapped some of the most accomplished hypermilers in the world, including Guinness World Record holder Bob Winger and Mike Sefton, "the most fuel efficient driver in all of Canada." It doesn't take long for the competition to get heated. "They're not aggressive enough, and it's not going to save them anything by being soft right now," says Gerdes as the group attempts to navigate the Interstate traffic. "Driving in Los Angeles is a hyper miler's nightmare," says Winger. The trip will challenge both car and driver, while putting the latest fuel-efficient tech to the test. Wayne is piloting the Volkswagen Golf Sportwagen TDI, Sefton drives the Audi A3 TDI, and Winger attempts the trek in a Honda Accord Hybrid. It's diesel versus hybrid tech on this fuel-efficient trip of a lifetime. Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures.

VW internal investigation finds 'no evidence' against suspended engineers

Tue, Oct 6 2015

Volkswagen is still working out the chain of events that led to emissions-evading software being installed in 11 million diesel vehicles worldwide and deciding who was responsible for the treachery. So far, the German automotive giant's internal investigation hasn't publicly named many suspects, and three suspended executive-level engineers have been found not to be culpable in the wrongdoing, according to an anonymous insider speaking to Reuters. VW knows that the software began being installed in the EA 189 engine in 2008. The internal investigation has found that the emissions-evading tech was created because the powerplant was found to fail US standards. Plus, the diesel mill wasn't meeting cost targets, according to Reuters. The automaker responded by suspending over 10 employees, but three top engineers among them might not have been involved. Those put on leave include Heinz-Jakob Neusser from VW, Ulrich Hackenberg from Audi, and Wolfgang Hatz who led Porsche's research and group-wide engine development. The internal detective work hasn't turned up any evidence against these three men. In addition to VW's own inquires, government investigators in both the US and Germany are taking a serious look into the company's actions, too. So far, the automaker is setting aside about $7.3 billion to pay to fix the vehicles with the evasive software. Depending on what authorities find, the costs could grow quickly. Beyond the financial implications, the scandal has led to a serious shakeup in VW's corporate structure. Related Video:
