I am selling a beautiful 1972 Volkswagen Beetle. Her name is Bella, and she runs beautifully. She is an old girl, so of course she needs to be taken care of as such. I bought her from a couple who took great care of her. Since I purchased her earlier this year, I have taken her on a number of road trips, and she has never failed me. I just took her into a local mechanic, and they said she is in beautiful shape with no oil leaks. She has a beautiful interior, with custom paint on the dash. She has speakers, but no subwoofer or stereo. All of the hooks ups and grounding cables are included with her. If you drive her right, she will get you 30mpg. She takes a couple of minutes to warm up when you start her. She does need a paint job, but she still looks beautiful with her maroon and white paint.
Her tires are practically new. I had to take the tire studs out come April, but the tires are in perfect condition with tons of tread left (no leaks). She also got a nice ding on her left front side (not a big dent) that could be fixed before painting. She has a spot on the roof that is cracking, but NO LEAKS and can easily be fixed. She just recently had an oil change. All lights work, brakes work perfectly, and she is ready to drive!
Here are some of the upgrades that have been done:
INTERIOR
Headliner (Birds of Norway)
Door Panels (Birds of Norway)
Wolfberg edition stirring wheel with custom paint to match
Dash pad removed to reveal VW's beautifully shaped metal dash
All the pulls, switches, ashtray, oh shit handle, ect. have been modified to fit the metal dash
New headlight switch installed
Custom hand-fabricated dash inserts which house 3 guages:
Auto Shift tachometer with ADJUSTABLE shift light!
VDO oil pressure gauge
VDO volt meter gauge
Oh-Shit Handles (all 3) have multi scheme paint or headliner trimming wrapped to match
Trunk release lever rerouted near the gas pedal for easy foot pressure release
Back-up trunk release hidden under the right front fender
Fire extinguisher mounted under the dash, easy one hand accessibility.
Kick panel speakers
Custom 2-Stage, 3 color paint scheme throughout interior
Heater cable tubes reamed out
All new HEATER cables (EVEN THE DEFROST WORKS!!!)
New heavy-duty window cranks
New Speedo cable
ENGINE COMPARTMENT
Replaced the original flimsy heater pipe with New Stainless Steel Flex Exhaust Pipe (ceramic coated black)
Air intake filter
Chrome Carburetor Cap
Aftermarket oil circulation system (most vw don't have this, it's a huge improvement)
Ceramic coated engine tins
Newer exhaust
Rally race crankshaft pulley with degree notches
VDO oil pressure (dual) switch so you have the pressure gauge and the dummy light still operates!
TRANSMISSION
Short shifter (Scat) short throw shifter easy shift (AWESOME, a must have for the V-dub)
New CV Joints
New clutch cable
WHEELS
Custom paint to match
Chrome Moonies on all 4 wheels
Newer wheel bearings
Tires with 80% tread left on them
Newer brake pads
New metal brake line from front to back. Newer rubber brake lines to all 4 wheels. Bled all 4 corners.
EXTERIOR
All body beading removed and panels aligned
Stainless Steel SS eye lids, eye lashes
New left side view mirror
All chrome is there
The only thing that needs to be fixed on her is the emergency brake. It only needs two new lines replaced and it will be good to go! :)
I need to sell her ASAP, so I have lowered the price from $4000 to $3300 - will accept some lower offers. I am about to give birth and need to find a new home for her soon. Clear title! Tags good until 2015, if you live in Oregon.

Volkswagen reveals Golf GTI Clubsport concept at Worthersee
Wed, May 13 2015The various brands under the Volkswagen Group umbrella are bringing a slew of hot hatch concepts to the GTI-Treffen in Worthersee, Austria, this week – but the gathering wouldn't be complete without a version of the headline Volkswagen Golf GTI. And here it is. Previewed with initial details and a trio of design sketches last week, VW has now released a proper array of images showing the GTI Clubsport concept. The enhanced GTI packs an upgraded version of the stock version's 2.0-liter turbo four with 261 horsepower on tap, favorably splitting the difference between the standard GTI with the Performance package and the more potent Golf R. An overboost function even kicks in an extra 10-percent more horsepower to bring peak output up to 287 hp – just a few horses shy of the R's 292, but driving only the front wheels. As you can see, the Clubsport concept also features a more aggressive aero kit as well as upgraded rolling stock with semi-slick rubber. Most, if not all, of these enhancements are earmarked to find their way onto a 40th anniversary edition GTI, but we're unlikely to see that model in US showrooms. World premiere of the Golf GTI Clubsport at Lake Worthersee - Exclusive anniversary model for 40th birthday of the GTI - Golf GTI Clubsport debuts with 265 PS and boost function Next year, the Golf GTI celebrates its 40th birthday. Volkswagen is marking this historic event with a progressive anniversary model: the new Golf GTI Clubsport. Volkswagen will be showcasing the Golf GTI Clubsport on 14th May as part of the legendary GTI meet at Lake Worthersee, when it will make its world premiere in the form of a near-production concept car. With a power output of 195 kW / 265 PS (35 PS more than the Golf GTI Performance) and top performance temporarily increased by around a further 10 per cent thanks to a boost function, the Golf GTI Clubsport is set to take off at the start of 2016 as the most powerful production 'GTI' yet. The anniversary model is being launched not only with an extremely powerful engine, but also with an individualised interior and exclusive bodywork details. The design modifications include a completely new front bumper, new side sills, a new and aerodynamically highly innovative roof-edge spoiler and a specially developed rear diffuser. All of these features were designed with the aim of further enhancing the GTI's performance and of thereby bringing form and function into perfect harmony.

Next Volkswagen Golf R to get 286 horsepower?
Tue, 12 Feb 2013The seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf hasn't launched in the United States just yet, but we're already setting our sights on the range-topping R model. According to Autocar, the next Golf R will be more powerful than the current version, producing 268 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, making it the most powerful production Golf ever.
Powering the new Golf R will be a further evolution of Volkswagen's well-liked 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four, and when mated to a six-speed dual-clutch transmission, the hotter hatch will reportedly be able to sprint to 62 miles per hour in five seconds flat. That's over half a second quicker than the current US-spec model.
Other updates for the new Golf R include the addition of VW's Haldex 5 all-wheel-drive system found in the latest iteration of 4Motion. Furthermore, thanks to the use of lightweight materials, the new R is expected to weigh in around 2,650 pounds - that's a massive 675 pounds less than the current US-spec car. The exhaust has reportedly been reworked to provide more aural delight, as well.
