I have for sale my 1984 Volkswagen Rabbit GTi. It has an aba block swap with a 1.8v head and it has a turbo, boosting 6psi. I bought the car already with the swap and the turbo installed so I don't how much about the swap, mileage of the motor or any detail pertaining to the swap. What I do know is that this car will bring a smile to your face when you step on it and the turbo kicks in. Its a fun car to drive to say the least.

Mechanically speaking the car runs good. Its starts right up every time with no issue. The fuel tank needs to be replaced or the hose that's inside the tank needs to be replace as it dies every time I make a right turn when the tank is less than half, if your familiar with this cars you'll know that its common thing on vw's those years. I just keep the tank full. Also the car sometimes cuts of at 4500 rpms. Its probably the timing so I'll be timing it with a timing light in the next few days. Other than that the car runs well.

Body is in the decent shape for the year. Its the original paint and its mainly straight with just a couple dents and very little surface rust, see pics. Overall in good shape for the year, will not need much body work.

Interior is also good, it has the full Recaro front and back seats off a '92 GLi and they are in good shape without any tears. They could use a good cleaning but that's it. Door panels are good with no tears, a few cracks on the top cover. Roof panel is great, not sagging and the dome light turns on when you open either door as well as the trunk light. Dash was replace so its not the original and the bezels that go around the radio and heater/ac controls is missing. No radio or a/c. Front windshield has a crack on passenger side, rest of the glass is good. Speedometer does not work and rpms work sometimes. Original steering wheel include in sale.

Suspension it has Neuspeed lowering springs and stock struts in front and kyb shocks in back, however one of the rear shocks is leaking and would need to be replaced.

Please keep in mind that this is almost 30 year old car and its not perfect. I would consider this a project but a running one and it can also be a daily driver. It is definitely a car worth restoring. Those were my plans but things have change in my life and so have the plans for this baby. My daily is an Audi TT and I enjoy driving this GTi as much as I do my TT, some people don't get it but it't true. Car is currently registered with current tags until the end of this month. I would love to keep it but at this time its not possible.

I have described the car to the best of my knowledge and I might have forgotten somethings. I'll keep updating this post. The car is being sold as is where is with no guarantee or warranty express or implied. If you are interested and have questions feel free to call or text me at 915-503-8427, you can also contact me through ebay.

Buyer is responsible for arraigning transportation at their expense. Car is located in Heber City, UT. If you are in the area and want to come and check it or want to send someone to inspect it feel free to contact me to set a time.

Honda wins Commercial of the Decade, but not for the ad you think [w/VIDEO]

Fri, 18 Dec 2009

Honda's Commercial of the Decade: "Grrr" - Click above to watch video
The mad men at Adweek recently voted for the Commercial of the Decade (Super Bowl commercials not included) and Honda took top honors over memorable ads from the last ten years by companies like Nike, Budweiser and Sony. That's not a big surprise considering Honda often puts a huge amount of effort into its on-air spots. However, the Japanese automaker didn't win for the commercial you might have expected: "Cog." Though Honda's famous commercial that breaks down a European Accord Tourer into a Rube Goldberg-esque machine was also a finalist, it was beaten by another Honda commercial called "Grrr" that's narrated by Garrison Keillor of all people. You've probably never seen it, but you can after the jump.
Volkswagen also made the list of finalists, but the particular ad chosen out of all the comical VW ads we've seen was unexpected as well. Most surprising carmaker with a commercial in the finals: Saturn. Who knew...

2014 Volkswagen GTI to start a new hot hatch era in Geneva

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

The upcoming Geneva Motor Show is going to be stocked with important new production models and sexy concept cars, but hot hatch enthusiasts will undoubtedly see it as the coming out party of the MkVII Volkswagen GTI. And while we've only got European specifications and pricing to go on for now, we can tell from the get-go that the new GTI will be a proper heir to VW's hot hatch legacy.
This seventh-generation GTI is powered by a turbocharged, direct-injection 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, which makes 220 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque in base form. For the first time ever, Volkswagen is also offering a performance pack for the GTI as well, which ups the horsepower to 230 (torque remains unchanged). With a slightly lower curb weight to push around - the new base car weighs 2,978 pounds versus 3,034 for the current three-door GTI - 0-62 miles per hour is now achieved in 6.5 seconds, and top speed is 153 mph. (Cars with the performance pack offer 0-62 mph in 6.4 seconds, and a 155-mph top speed.) Buyers my choose between a six-speed manual transmission or an optional six-speed DSG unit.
Visually, the new GTI has obviously adopted the slant-nosed looks of the MkVII Golf, though with plenty of added drama. The exterior is dominated by the 17-inch "Brooklyn" wheels wearing 225-section rubber, and the aggressive front fascia gets black honeycombed inserts in the upper and lower grille sections. At launch, Volkswagen will offer the GTI in three colors: the Pure White seen here, Tornado Red and Black. Tartan patterned seats are of course still an option for the interior, while the GTI-specific steering wheel and shift knob are standard.
