I am the first owner of this GTI. I purchased it at Palmetto 57 Volkswagen off of fl826 in Miami, FL. This car has had the oil changed every 5,000 miles, and serviced regularly. The engine has been properly broken in; the performance modifications were not installed until 6,116 miles. The initial 6,000 miles the car spent conservatively commuting 20 miles each way. After 6,116 miles, all performance upgrades were installed.

 

This car has never given me any problems; I have loved driving it every moment! I’m going to be sad to see it go, but I’m moving to New York City, and cannot have a car.  This car has been tastefully, and professionally tuned. I have only installed the best parts. All of the upgrades were installed, tuned, and maintained by Foreign Affairs Motorsport, located in Pompano Beach, FL. You can look up more information about them here: foreignaffairsmotorsports dot com - They have a phenomenal reputation, and they are family owned.

 

This is a non-smoker car, has never been in an accident, and has always been kept in a covered garage.

 

Modifications include:

 

2.0 TSI APR ECU STAGE 2 PERFORMANCE SOFTWARE

CARBONIO TSI COLD AIR INTAKE

USP 3 INCH STAINLESS STEEL 2.0 TUBRO FSI/TSI DOWNPIPE

AKRAPORVIC LINK PIPE VW SS

AKRAPOVIC EXHAUST SYSTEM STAINLESS STEEL WITH MUFFLERS (NO TIPS)

AKRAPOVIC TAIL PIPE SET TITANIUM 100MM

ST COILOVER SUSPENSION KIT VW

VMR WHEELS V710 19*8.5 5*112 57.1 ET45 MATTE BLACK

235/35ZR19 MICHELIN PILOT SUPER SPORT

28MM FRONT SWAY BAR

24MM REAR SWAY BAR

 

HOTWIRED VALENTINE 1

 

BLACKED OUT FRONT TURN SIGNAL

BLACKED OUT LUG BOLTS

BLACKED OUT EMBLEMS ALL AROUND

 

Over $11,000 invested in this car!

 

So after all of these upgrades, how does it drive?

 

Light and super fast. According to APR, and Akrapovic, the numbers fall around 280-300hp and 300-320 torque. I have never dyno tested the car, but I do have access to one if you are interested. This car launches off the line with such aggression, the wheels cannot even grip the pavement. When cruising on the highway, and the rpm’s are around 3500-4000 and you lightly press the gas, the car wants to take off.  You will be thrown into your seat with a smile. The sway bars, coil-overs, and super sports greatly increase the grip, rigidity, and athleticism of this car. The Akrapovic exhaust is about as beautiful of a sound as you can imagine. From both inside and outside, the sound is such perfection; you’ll find you are driving with the windows down in the middle of summer just to hear it! Also, what most people who want to buy the exhaust and have not heard it in person, the exhaust has such a nice deep resonant presence at idle, that most people don’t expect to see a 4 cylinder pull up. The quality of the exhaust is astounding; Akrapovic is hands down, the best.

 

Best part about all of this… the car does not suffer significant mpg’s, and daily driving this car is perfect. The power doesn’t throw you into your seat until 3800rpms. Everything below is smooth, with wonderful road manners. Occasionally, there is some rubbing in the back. This only happens though if potholes/bumps are not negotiated properly, or you are carrying your girlfriend’s suitcase in the back.

 

Of course, if you are looking at this car, and have gotten this far into my description, you are probably aware of all of this. This is one of the best, pure GTI’s you are going to find. There isn’t a navigation system; the car has the original plaid seats, and a 6speed. The options are sparse, but the car is very light. This car has been done the right way.

 

Asking price is $29,500.

 

Let me know what you think, shoot me an email with any questions you have, and if you are really serious, send me an offer. If you’re in the Miami/Coral Gables/Midtown/Miami Beach Area, let me know, and you can come by and check it out!

 

Thanks for your interest!

TN politicians may push to end VW incentives if plant goes union

Tue, 11 Feb 2014

Volkswagen's Chattanooga Assembly Plant is scheduled to vote on whether to unionize in the coming days, but Tennessee state lawmakers are threatening to deny future tax subsidies to the factory, if the vote is successful. The factory is currently the only Volkswagen plant worldwide that is not unionized.
The states's Republican lawmakers have been particularly vocal against the union vote. Tennessee state senator Bo Watson said during a press conference that VW would have a "very tough time" with future incentives if the vote were successful, according to Automotive News. Tennessee House Majority Leader Gerald McCormick said the "heavy hand" of the UAW is not welcome there. VW has drawn criticism from both sides because it has allowed both pro- and anti-union groups to speak to workers and hand out leaflets.
Roughly 1,500 factory employees will vote on whether to unionize from February 12-14. If successful, the Chattanooga factory would be the first in the US organized under a German-style works council system where white- and blue-collar workers directly negotiate factory issues with the company's management.

IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013

Wed, 02 Jan 2013

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.
