For sale: the funnest car I've ever owned. It's not perfect. Just a few paint chips here and there. They didn't paint under the hood or the trunk, but the original color in it's original condition is displayed there and I think it looks cool. You can see the motor has been upgraded. It runs and drives perfectly. Starts every time and goes down the road with no problem. Disk brakes all around, and a killer custom sound system. Ipod, blue tooth, subwoofer, etc. Here are it's faults in a nutshell:

No paint under the hood and trunk

A couple of paint chips, and the front and rear apron could have been done better as far as body work goes

When loaded down with two adults and a great dane, the front tires will rub on the fenders when you hit a big bump

The ragtop mechanism works fine, but it's just a bit sticky when returning it to the front.

The left rear fender has a dent in it, but a complete set of replacement fenders is included.

Speedometer needle is homemade and wooden. Someone's custom work, and it works fine, but the purists would want to know about it.

No heat system. All been removed, but channels are fine. Tubes coming in from engine compartment are filled w insulation, for obvious reasons

Someone who knows what they're doing needs to do new window felts on this thing, and put stock window cranks on it.

Here's the good stuff:

Runs perfectly. Starts every time, goes like hell

While "leather" (Might be real, but I doubt it) interior that cleans up easy and is quite durable

White window rubber (Hawaiian look) is the last of it's kind as far as I know.

Garage Kept, rubber and plastic in good shape

The stereo is a custom dream come true. Plug in your ipod, run pandora, nice low end from the sub without blowing you out.

Full set of spare fenders

Full set of spare wheels (cookie cutters, like the ones that are mounted)

Guages, wipers, lights, all good.

Disk brakes do the job QUICK.

A box of assorted goodies will accompany the sale. Trim pieces, doo dads, oh, and a transmission.

This is not the kind of vehicle you sell unless you have to, and friends, I have to. It will bring it's new owner years of joy.

Bidders in the contiguous 48 only please. $500 deposit due in 24 hours, the rest due in 7 days. Cash in hand, wire transfer or certified check.

World Car Of The Year down to its final four

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

Judges for the World Car of the Year Award have narrowed down the finalists to just four vehicles. Out of a total of 42 entries, only the Mercedes-Benz A-Class, Porsche Boxster/Cayman, Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ/Toyota GT-86 and Volkswagen Golf remain standing. For Volkswagen, this marks the second consecutive year the company has had an entry among the finalists, and the fourth time since 2009. In order to qualify, a vehicle must be on sale on two continents during the span of time between January 1, 2013 and May 30, 2013. A panel of 66 journalists from 23 countries then vote on the finalists.
Three vehicles have made the cut for the last round of voting on the 2013 World Performance Car as well, with the Cayman/Boxster and FR-S/BRZ/GT-86 running against the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta. Meanwhile, the Renault Zoe, Tesla Model S and Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid are duking it out for the World Green Car Award. Finally, the World Car Design of the Year Award is up for grabs between the Aston Martin Vanquish, Jaguar F-Type, and the Mazda6. Check out the full press release below. Overall winners will be presented at the 2013 New York Auto Show.

CEO says Volkswagen's buying spree is over

Mon, 03 Sep 2012

After adding Italian motorcycle icon Ducati to its stable and spending $5.6 billion on the rest of Porsche, Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn says he's done shopping for a while.
"We have enough to do at the moment in taking our twelve brands to where we want to be," Winterkorn tells German newspaper Handelsblatt.

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.
