2007 Volkswagen Gti Thunderbunny/apr Tuned/stoptech Brakes/coil-over Suspension on 2040-cars
Kansas City, Missouri, United States
|
I'm the 2nd owner since the car had 25,500 miles. Adult owned for almost 4 years and never smoked in. Volkswagen of America just replaced the DSG with a new one at 79k miles because of a VW dealership's carelessness during a transmission service. A new DSG is about $6,000. Car is tuned with APR stage 1 (stock mode, 91 octane, 93 octane and 100 octane). Car has all new Goodridge SS brake lines with StopTech slotted rotors and StopTech street pads with TyrolSport brass bushing brake caliper stiffening kit, all changed out around 79k. Solo-werks coilovers with front 034 Density strut mounts installed around 82k. Car has 17" Audi RS replica wheels (perfect condition) with all-season Cooper RS3-A tires with approximately 3,500 miles. All black textured trim has been changed to the rare OEM VW Thunderbunny sideskirts and Thunderbunny rear bumper with LED license plate lights. Front lip is a smoothed OEM candy white Jetta lip. Transformation started when someone rear ended me at about 5mph. I opted for the bumper, then changed the lip when the front bumper was replaced after shredded tire road debris. Also replaced were cam follower (replaced at 75k) and most recently revised diverter valve and valve cover. Interior cloth is in great shape. Car was already tinted when I purchased it, doors are around 35% and the rear is just about as dark as it gets. Sunroof works perfectly, no problems. Car has been waxed twice yearly during my 4 year ownership and the HID headlight plastic is clear as new and no hazing. Synthetic oil changes every 5,000 miles and not the recommended 10k by VW. All recalls have been performed and I just replaced the air filter and an oil change. DSG service occurs every 40k and won't be needed until the car reaches 120,000 miles. You will not find another DSG GTI on eBay with 7,000 miles!
My entire reason for selling is because I'm moving to an all-year-round summer climate and I'm wanting to get back into a roadster. This car has been great daily driver and a blast to drive. Very quick with the tune, better handling with new suspension and brakes way better than the stock rotors and pads. I've had quite a bit of Vag-com work done. The two key fobs can control driver and passenger side windows (up and down) in addition to closing the sunroof. The rear hatch release button on the key fobs has been activated that was not an option in the U.S. The HID Xenon headlights have been turned off as daytime running lights and the fog lights have been turned on as daytime running lights. Also, had the seat belt chime turned off in case you don't like wearing a seat belt (which I don't recommend). In the first and last photo are my gunmetal color VMR v710 wheels, 18x8.5" wide with Cooper RS3-S 225/40x18 summer only tires with about 3,000 miles on them. Wheels are in excellent condition, straight and true as are the tires. Also includes TPMS sensors. These are NOT included in my asking price. However, they are for sale for $1,300. The entire set new, TPMS and mounting was over $1,700. In my auction's last photo I have my OEM VW roof bars with two OEM VW barracuda racks, NOT available in my asking price. Also for sale for $400 and before taxes they are $680 new from VW. $250 deposit is non-refundable. I live in Kansas City but from St. Louis which is where my loan is located. The car can be picked up in either city once payment clears. Please feel free to ask me any questions. Thanks! |

VW reveals Outback-rivaling Golf Alltrack ahead of Paris
Wed, 24 Sep 2014The Volkswagen Passat Alltrack is getting a baby brother at this year's 2014 Paris Motor Show in the form of a new Golf Alltrack. Like its larger sibling, the little wagon is supposed to offer light-duty off-road driving ability combined with a more rugged look to show it off.
To give the Golf Alltrack that soft-road ability, VW is outfitting the wagon with its latest 4Motion all-wheel drive system from Haldex. The setup can decouple power from the rear-axle when not needed to save fuel. To further improve traction, the Alltrack gets VW's electronic differential lock, and the car can individually brake its inside wheel during hard cornering for better handling.
Volkswagen also wants the Alltrack to be able to visually show that it can handle getting away from the pavement, even though it starts life as a standard Golf wagon. That means jacking up the suspension an extra 0.75 inches and adding black moldings all the way around the car. There are also redesigned bumpers for the front and rear and silver underbody protection, plus new accents like anodized roof rails and silver mirror caps. The interior is essentially unchanged from the wagon, except for altered trim and Alltrack badges.

A VW will help you keep control of your terrible children, apparently
Wed, Apr 29 2015Not all kids are angels, and in fact some of them can be destructive little monsters at the worst of times. Parents know it, too. Volkswagen is playing on adults' fear of being publicly embarrassed by their progeny in an extremely clever ad, touting the long-distance driving range of the Passat TDI. Titled Mom, the spot is certainly one of the more creative sales pitches ever devised for a vehicle's fuel economy. The ad allows three little boys to go absolutely wild in a convenience store as a horrified cashier watches. Although, the commercial certainly raises the question: what mom would actually let her kids run around unattended while pumping gas?
