OVERVIEW:
 
For auction is my 2008 MkV Volkswagen R32 in Candy White. I am the second owner of this vehicle, and have performed all modifications within the last year at professional shops in the Southern NH area. The vehicle has just tipped over 60k miles, and has approximately 32k and/or 4 years left on full warranty, yes WARRANTY, which is fully transferable. While the vehicle has been modified, I have maintained it meticulously with the dealership, and in many communications verified with the modifications done, as long as I was willing to service it at the dealership for my mileage based maintenance, they would recognize all warrantied parts with the exception of the suspension. So the entire drive train and all electronics still have an active, complete warranty. The vehicle was parked nearly all winter except a few trips on nice days to keep it from freezing to death. The car has been completely and entirely polished in every sense of the word for this summer, and has been driven only a handful of times all of this year. This is an absolute SHOW worthy car, which is completely ready to go for this season, as well as very quick. I have owned, and driven many sports/tuner cars over the years, including 240sx’s, STi’s etc… and this is absolutely the most enjoyable car to get in, crank it up, and enjoy the ride comfort, sunroof, and ease of driving with the DSG transmission, shift as fast as an Indy car, or as smooth as your Grandfather’s Cadillac, you choose. Overall it is an easy to own, easy to drive, but with every bit the soul of a real enthusiast’s car. It saddens me to let it go, but I do not have the time to enjoy it anymore, and this car needs to be out where it belongs with someone who can truly appreciate it!
 
Car is for sale locally. I reserve the right to remove the listing should the car sell through other avenues. thank you for understanding.

Next Volkswagen Golf R to get 286 horsepower?

Tue, 12 Feb 2013

The 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.

Volkswagen tipped to launch turbocharged Up! with 100 hp

Tue, Jan 6 2015

Overseas customers enticed by the compact dimensions of the Volkswagen Up! but turned off by its diminutive 1.0-liter three-cylinder engine may be encouraged by reports that the German automaker is planning a more potent turbo version. Previewed by the GT Up! concept showcased at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show (pictured above), the more performance-oriented model is expected to pack the turbo three from the larger Polo, where it produces 100 horsepower channeled through a five-speed manual transmission. That may not seem like much, but it would put the existing 59- and 74-horsepower versions of the German city car to shame. That might not give it enough punch to keep pace with the upcoming Smart Fortwo Brabus (and its Renaultsport Twingo counterpart), tipped to pack as much as 130 hp, but it could stand to out-perform the existing 89-hp turbo models of both. Given that the reports are emanating from Brazil, however, it is possible that the Up! Turbo (or whatever it's ultimately called) would be limited to the South American market, if it's built at all. One thing's for sure, though: it's not likely to make it to North American showrooms anytime soon.

Investors storm Volkswagen with $9 billion in lawsuits

Wed, Sep 21 2016

Volkswagen's investors are latest group to take up pitchforks against the embattled automaker, and they're seeking $9 billion in damages, Reuters reports. The investor lawsuits were filed in a court in Braunschweig, Germany, near Volkswagen's Wolfsburg headquarters. On Monday, the first business day following the anniversary of the emissions revelations, the court received 750 lawsuits alone. All told, about 1,400 lawsuits have been filed. The largest single claim totals $3.7 billion and was filed more than six months ago. The lawsuits stem from complaints that Volkswagen didn't divulge information on the cheating software to investors quickly enough. Volkswagen has said that it hasn't broken any capital market laws. The $21.5 billion the company set aside to weather the storm may not be enough. The consumer fix is estimated to run the company $14.7 billion, either through buybacks or a fix that still seems unclear. In addition to the lawsuits, Volkswagen CEO Matthias Mueller confirmed that Audi boss Rupert Stadler is under investigation regarding the scandal. Mueller refused to give further details, but this shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone. Audi has admitted that its 3.0-liter V6 was equipped with the same emissions-cheating software as the 2.0-liter four-cylinder diesels. Stefan Knirsch, Audi's head of development, has been suspended as part of the overall investigation. Knirsch took over duties after his predecessor quit. Knisch was previously head of engine development at Audi. Related Video: News Source: Reuters Green Hirings/Firings/Layoffs Audi Volkswagen Emissions Diesel Vehicles vw diesel scandal
