1998 Vw Vr6 New Beetle on 2040-cars

Rapid City, South Dakota, United States

This is a 1998 New Beetle with 218xxx miles on the body. The motor is a 12v 2.8L MKIV VR6 and is from a 2000 Jetta along with the 5-speed transmission and was professionally swapped into it by NGP Racing. I have been daily driving this car for years and have not had any problems with it.  The car was recently repainted.  The body is excellent except for one scuff on the front drivers side fender from a hit and run but no body damage was done.  It runs great and starts everytime.  The transmission shifts as it should and does not grind or crunch.  The interior is also very nice with leather seats from a Turbo S Beetle, a custom painted Zolotone headliner, steering wheel from a GLI Jetta, and AWE pedals.  This is a very torquey and powerful car and it also drives like a go-kart.  I have put a lot of time and money into this car and do not want to sell it but I have to pay off my new car. It has 18" BBS RC's with 2 new front Eagle F1 tires. This car is very reliable and I would not hesitate to take this thing anywhere.

Here's what all is done on the car:
*FK Streetline Coilovers
*Stage 2 Daily DXD Clutch and Pressure plate
*9 LB Flywheel
*Polyurethane Dogbone and Transmission Mount Inserts
*Front to back and side to side Short Throw shifter
*K&N Intake
*Fully ported and Polished Exhaust with Cat Delete with Magnaflow Catback
*New Beetle Turbo S Seats
*GLI Steering Wheel
*AWE Pedals
*European Tail lights
*EBC Slotted front rotors with EBC red stuff pads
*Clear side markers
*Water Temperature Gauge
*Zolotone Headliner (Like textured paint)
*Color matched Interior
*A/C Delete

I'm sure there is more that I cannot think of.

If you have any more questions feel free to ask.

VW pondering low-cost sub-brand for China?

Wed, 30 Jan 2013

More detail is being sketched into the Volkswagen Group's plan to launch a low-cost brand for emerging markets. Late last year a German report quoted a VW rep saying that the brand has been interested in building a no-frills car, the kind that would challenge Dacia and Datsun, for a while. With both Proton and Suzuki effectively out of the partnership picture, a report in Reuters suggests VW could go straight to China, developing a car with its joint venture partners and building and selling it there.
Officially, company CEO Martin Winterkorn said the issue of a model for emerging markets would be decided this year but VW isn't any closer to confirming any kind of plan for a car in its portfolio underneath the Up!, remarking to Reuters about the China possibility, "That's an issue we're currently looking at."

Volkswagen Golf R Evo may debut at Beijing Motor Show

Thu, 23 Jan 2014

If a report in Auto Express is correct, a lighter, faster brother to the Volkswagen Golf R will be shown to the world at the Beijing Motor Show in April. Said to be called the Golf R Evo, the even harder hot hatch would be unveiled as one of those concepts that's practically a de facto presentation of the genuine thing. The Evo in its name will come from having a carbon fiber roof and CF in the bodywork, lighter wheels, thinner bucket seats up front and a roll cage instead of rear seats.
If there's a power increase, it's been described as "a small bump." However, as the report mentions, if the Jenny Craig regimen can drop 100 kilograms (220 pounds) from the the 3,247-pound weight of the European Golf R, then the Golf R Evo will do about the same damage on the scales as the Golf but have at least 50 more horsepower and 44 more pound-feet of torque.
Since we still don't have the current Golf, this isn't something that should keep you awake even if the 'concept' does become a production model. But it is good to know that the Golf R is really going to start pushing its boundaries.

Volkswagen Passat gets Wolfsburg Edition, priced from $23,495*

Tue, 23 Apr 2013

Volkswagen has just announced a new Passat Wolfsburg Edition, which slots between the base S and mid-grade SE trims in terms of content and price. The automaker has not released any official photos of the car as of this writing (aside from the badge shot you see here, of course), but the Wolfsburg Passat will be visually set apart from the rest by a unique set of 16-inch alloy wheels.
The big host of upgrades for the Wolfsburg Edition are found inside, where buyers will enjoy standard amenities like leatherette seats (with bun-warmers on the front chairs), a power driver's seat, satellite radio and a media interface with iPod connectivity. Of course, this comes on top of the already standard Passat features like Bluetooth and auto on/off headlamps. The Wolfsburg Passat will only be available with the 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine and a six-speed automatic transmission.
Look for the 2013 Wolfsburg Edition Passat to hit dealerships in the very near future, priced from $23,495, *not including $795 for destination. Have a look below for Volkswagen's official press blast.
