Let me start off by saying that I pride myself in being ABSOLUTELY honest and straighforward when dealing on eBay. I've been jerked around before and HATE people who do that kind of thing. This is meant to be a laid back, no pressure sale of a car that I LOVE and am not particularly excited about selling...

Up for sale is my 2009 VW GTI. The car has been garaged for the last 2 years and is in excellent condition. I have always driven the car very carefully and have NEVER abused it in any way, as I do not believe in trashing beautifully designed machines, ha ha. It has barely been driven in the last year and a half, as I was able to walk or ride a bike to work. The car is mechanically sound and has nothing wrong with it other than a few MINOR cosmetic things, which I'll describe below.

Minor cosmetic flaws:

1. Right after I got it in 2010, like a jackass I backed into a pole in a parking lot at about 0.5 mph. As a result the driver side rear tail light cracked and the bumper and rear quarter panel were scuffed. Insurance covered the incident and a brand new light was installed and the body work was done by a professional. You would never know it happened.

2. There is a small crack in the driver-side side skirt, right behind the front wheel. This was there when I got the car and I never addressed it. Looks like someone removed the side skirt at one time and I'm guessing that is how it happened (see picture).

3. There are a couple of TINY paint chips (maybe 5 total) that I've covered with touch-up paint, but that are still slightly visible - barely a consideration.

4. I bumped the headlight switch with my knee getting into the car one time and the plastic around it has a crack that is barely noticeable (see pictures).

5. There is some light curb rash on the driver-side front wheel. This was from the previous owner.

6. There is a small scratch in the rear window tint. This happened last week from a surf board fin and the glass is fine.

A couple of things things that I've had to have fixed on the car:

1. I had an issue with the 3rd brake light (on the rear spoiler) last year where only half the LEDs in the light were coming on. I took it to a VW dealer and they replaced an $800.00 part in the computer that was putting a bad voltage through that light, along with the light itself. The whole thing was covered under the 5 year/50,000 mile warranty and the light has been fine since.

2. The "Check Engine" light came on at the beginning of this year, so I took it to the dealership again. There was an issue with a butterfly valve sticking in the intake manifold. They replaced the whole thing while performing the 40,000 mile maintenance. This was also covered under the 5 year/50,000 mile warranty.

A couple of things that have been added:

1. The car has super dark tint all the way around, and it was professionally done, so it looks awesome. I got pulled over for it immediately after buying the car, and was given a warning and told to have it removed. That was in Ohio, but in Virginia I've never been pulled over for it.

2. The car has the nice GTI rubber mats (the driver one is coming close to having a small hole worn through, but the rest are like new), as well as the VW "Gorilla-Gear" trunk protector mat. The original floor mats are included.

3. Less than 1500 miles ago I put Brembo (drilled, zinc-coated) rotors all around on the car, along with Hawk ceramic pads (a $700.00 investment). I was surprised at how much more responsive the brakes were, and the ceramic pads are quieter and generate less dust. These brakes look great and will stay that way for a long time.

4. I have two brand new Good Year Eagle GT All Season tires that will come with the car (see picture). I already have these tires on the front, but have not yet replaced the rears (Dunlop SP Sport 01 A/S) because they're such good tires ($210.00 a piece) and still have some life left in them.

5. I put the factory VW roof bars on it. They have a few scuffs here and there but are fully functional and look and work great.

That's pretty much it. Please feel free to call or message me anytime with questions (606-547-6565), and thanks for looking!

Volkswagen formally introduces super-efficient XL1

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

Lightweight and low drag are hallmarks of great sportscar design. But when paired with a super-efficient, hybrid powertrain, you have the Volkswagen's XL1 that has been formally introduced in Geneva today.
When the 1,700-lb, carbon-fiber-bodied two-seater hits the road, its claimed 261 miles per gallon will make it the world's most-fuel-efficient production car. Though "production car" might be a stretch since VW said in a February press release that the XL1 would be built using "handcrafting-like production methods." We translate that to mean you won't be seeing many of these cars on the road. Though no one at VW has mentioned pricing yet, early rumors suggested a six-figure price tag.
That's supercar budget for a vehicle that has a 47-horsepower, two-cylinder diesel engine and a 27hp electric motor. With numbers like that, owners can expect 0-62 mph times of 12.7 seconds and top speed near 100 mph.

VW looking to MAN up, ditch Mercedes van deal

Wed, 16 Jan 2013

Unlike the US, the commercial truck market throughout the rest of the world is chocked full of competitors from many different automakers. Since 2006, Volkswagen has had a fullsize van called the Crafter that was a result of a partnership with Daimler AG and based on the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. This partnership is supposed to last through 2016, but Reuters is reporting that VW might be looking to end its relationship with Daimler and create its own van in cooperation with German truck and bus maker MAN.
The article says that VW AG has more than a 75-percent stake in MAN, which would essentially be keeping the new commercial vehicle in-house. Even if VW bolts, Daimler still has a deal worked out in the commercial truck industry between its subsidiary Mitsubishi Fuso and Renault-Nissan to supply the other with different trucks.

VW launches special edition Touareg X

Tue, 03 Dec 2013

Volkswagen is no stranger to special editions, but its Touareg SUV has remained largely unspecial in terms of exclusive trims or unique packages. That's changed with the announcement of the Touareg X, a 1,000-unit run based on the V6 TDI Lux trim - mid-range diesel model, between the navigation-equipped TDI Sport and the TDI R-Line.
The already special Touareg gets 19-inch "Moab" wheels, LED taillights (to go along with its LED DRLs) and "Touareg X" badging, while all 1,000 units will be painted Moonlight Blue Pearl. Tweaks in the cabin are equally light, with a black-on-black-on-black color scheme dominating - black Vienna leather, a black headliner and piano black trim. Aluminum bits make an appearance in the form of the door sills and pedals, although that's about it.
Other than those few aesthetic tweaks, the Touareg X is equipped largely like the Touareg Lux on which it's based. That means navigation, a panoramic sunroof, power seats, LED running lights, dual-zone air conditioning and heated power seats, among other tech pieces. Pricing starts at $56,170, making for a slight bump of $1,195 over the standard Touareg Lux.
