Sale not final until payment is CLEARED!
Dont bother buying unless you have at least messaged me first!
This is not a silly tee shirt you bid on then get in the mail, this is a car, Serious buyers only. Local pickup only. I PREFER BUYER CONTACT ME AND ARRANGE TO COME SEE IT BEFORE BUYING OR OFFERING! All sales FINAL! Payment method : Cashiers check! money order! not personal check, and probably not paypal unless its a special situation. But in general if you are coming in person to look at the car, and to pick up the car, you can bring a physical form of payment. Sold AS IS! There IS A LEAN HOLDER On the title! We will have to discuss how we will change over the title, but know that when you have paid i will remove the license plate and insurance from the car, and you will not be able to register it until you have the title, which will be after i have the title, witch will be after my bank send it out! just know that! :) patience may be required! :)
THE ENGINE LIGHT IS CURRENTLY ON! the code that its popping is something like " secondary air flow insufficient ". Dont quote me, i may be a little off, autozone can tell you for sure, for free! My mechanic says its nothing to really worry about, it could be/ probably is something as simple as a air-line that's bent and wont let air pass, or has a snag or hole in it. ten dollar fix if i can ever get the time to get it in the shop to find it! problem is its my daily driver and i can not afford to take the time to let my mechanic have it for days to work on it (my favorite mechanics are slow...but amazingly VW Smart and trustworthy!) Passed my last emissions inspection by having the code reset, it takes almost 1000 miles to come back on, you can get an inspection after reset by about 100 miles! do the math, that's approx 900 miles of OKAY zone. I bought this car from a DEALER who KNEW this light as on, reset it, and sold it to me anyway. i didnt even get home without it coming on. Been driving it this whole time, it does not affect performance at all!
The 5-speed Turbo is quicker than you may think! same engine as the 2001 GTI's. it might be a typical girl car but its not as dainty as it looks.
You will be spoiled to the great gas millage and amazing horsepower combo!
Realistically Buying this car from the dealer in this area you would be doing well to get it for less than $5500 plus all the fees, KBB says it is worth $3799 from a dealer. but only 2800 private party. I'm not a dealer trying to make commission. Im not gonna lie about whats wrong with it and whats been done. But, I gotta make what I need to pay my loans off, so, that's why the price is what it is. I'm trying to break even here, but if to sell it means lowering the price i will. so contact me!!!
2001 Red VW Beetle Sport 1.8 20V Turbo
169,xxx miles
5 Speed Manual
Cream leather int. W/ heated seats, Cruise control, Tinted windows, power locks and windows, Sunroof, 6 CD player, Premium rims, radio w/ aux port, & pop-out spoiler.
Amazing gas millage! Internet says only about 25 but I have measured upward of thirty mpg.
I have done most of the general maintenance you will have to worry about with a car this age/ mileage. I replaced all the brakes and rotors feb. 2012 (shortly after I bought it), Two rear bushings in oct. 2012 and the alternator in April this year. The timing belt and water pump were replaced at 100,000 by previous owner. Whole A/C unit was replaced this time last year. Two back tires are less than a month old. Two front tires were rotated from the back at the same time and have barely any wear. I also have two more full size tires I bought on sale I can sell if you're interested. you can buy them from me and not have to worry about being stuck with a flat and having to pay some outrageous price to a shop, also in my experience most shops don't keep this size in stock so its good to be prepared.
I have the receipts for all of this work and some more, not all the oil changes because i did quite a few myself, but they have been done on a very regular basis!

An inside look at VW's new California R&D center
Thu, 18 Oct 2012Less than two months ago, the Volkswagen Group opened a new facility in Oxnard, California (about an hour's drive west of Los Angeles). The $27 million investment, touted as Test Center California (TCC), serves as a research and development lab testing emissions for all brands under Volkswagen's umbrella, including its newest member, Porsche. While still not fully operational, we toured the new 64,000-square-foot building last week and had a first-hand opportunity to see just how much work is involved testing engines and meeting increasingly stringent government emissions standards.
Replacing a similar facility established in 1990 in Westlake Village (about 20-minutes east of the new location), our guide explained how Oxnard was chosen for its temperate climate, varied regional terrain for test drives and low altitude. (The area is only a few feet above sea level - a critical parameter when instrument testing emissions.) The new facility is capable of analyzing hundreds of vehicles, prototypes and customer-owned vehicles, annually.
Most interesting to us was the huge stainless steel climate chamber, with a massive four-wheel dynamometer that allows VW to test running vehicles in both scorching desert and freezing climates without ever leaving the building (an Audi Q7 was running in place during our visit). We were also mesmerized by the countless storage tanks and intricate plumbing of chemicals, stored in both liquid and gas states, needed to perform the variety of tests. Lastly, we took a look at Bugatti's service center on the west coast, located completely within the new center. While there were no supercars on site, the facility is equipped with plenty of spare forged wheels (mounted with expensive Michelin PAX tires) and a Veyron-specific repair jig that allows the vehicle to be completely disassembled, if needed. It is a shame that the facility, which set off all of our automotive geek alerts, is closed to the public.
Volkswagen E-Co-Motion Concept brings electric mobility to the commercial set
Wed, 06 Mar 2013Volkswagen sees a future where the bulk of the world's freight is moved into city centers by train, then offloaded onto a fleet of smaller, light-duty commercial vehicles for final delivery. Those vehicles could wind up looking something like the company's E-Co-Motion Concept that debuted at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. The EV features a modular underfloor drive unit comprised of a battery, motor and gearbox that can be paired with any number of cab and body configurations to suit a buyer's needs, from a refrigerated box to a standard flat bed.
The E-Co-Motion Concept features a rear-mounted electric motor with 113 horsepower and 199 pound-feet of torque. A standard 20 kWh battery pack provides a driving range of up to 62 miles, while 30 kWh and 40 kWh packs could deliver 93 and 124 miles of travel, respectively. Check out the press release below for more information.
2014 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible gets the R-Line treatment
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Volkswagen just launched the topless Beetle Convertible at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November, but we're already seeing the next step forward in the topless Bug range with this, the R-Line. We'll admit, this treatment falls under the "all show and no go" category, but it's still a pretty potent little cutie.
The R-Line starts with a standard Beetle Turbo Convertible but adds unique 19-inch aluminum wheels on lower-profile tires, LED daytime running lamps and Xenon headlamps. Naturally, there are R-Line badges aplenty both on the interior and exterior, and we must say, the whole package looks pretty darn snazzy.
Pricing has yet to be announced, but when it goes on sale later this year, the hotter convertible will join Volkswagen's growing R-Line portfolio that now includes the CC, Beetle hatch, Tiguan and Touareg.
