Only 76K miles! Cold Weather and Comfort PDC One of Only 452 MSRP $88K
Rare and desired fully loaded W12!! I am quite pleased to offer my beautiful Volkswagen Phaeton W12. If you are here, then you probably know ALL about this Limited Edition Phaeton. Only offered in North America for three years, this utterly fantastic automobile is still available across the pond!! It runs and drives utterly spectacular!!!! All options and accessories function as designed, and it is one of the NICEST cars that I have had the pleasure to own and drive. I will let the many Detailed photos below tell the story. This small blurb below was copied from "The Fast Lane Car", and all credit goes to them. It's named after the Greek god Phaeton, whose most famous feature was an ostentatious carriage. The Phaeton accomplishes a rare balance between immense performance and swaddling luxury. The 6.0-liter W12 engine produced 420 horsepower to go along with 406 lb.-ft. of torque, numbers that rocketed this 5000 lb. beast to 60 mph in 5.5 seconds. The Phaeton put this power to the ground through VW's 4Motion AWD system, a variation of Audi's legendary Quattro system. Unbelievably, all of this performance arrived in a wheelbase that was the longest of any VW Group vehicle as of 2011, providing passengers with ample legroom and speaking to the luxurious aim of the Phaeton. The Phaeton's luxury features, however, extended far past simply legroom. Standard came a draftless four-zone climate control system, an adjustable air suspension system, and an 18-way power adjustable driver's seat. In addition, base Phaetons received authentic walnut wood trim, a 270-watt premium audio system, and rear sunshades for the discerning passenger. Gorgeous, high-quality leather stitched to perfection filled every inch of a Phaeton interior, something that allowed the vehicle to shed its common brand name for a more Bentley-esque experience.
I am selling it with the 22" Aicona 2 piece forged wheels (also selling
separately) and the original wheels. Both sets of wheels and tires are
in great condition). It also has a Magnaflow exhaust. Take a look at the photographs below and see the actual pristine condition of this One of A Kind Phaeton W12 Sedan. |

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.
VW Chattanooga plant very close to UAW representation
Tue, 11 Nov 2014After months of fighting from both sides, it looks like the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga, TN, might unionize under the United Auto Workers after all. According to a letter acquired by The Associated Press, VW and the UAW reportedly struck a deal last spring where the union agreed to stop its challenge of the organization vote with the National Labor Relations Board to help clear the way for the CrossBlue to be produced in Tennessee. In exchange, the automaker would recognize the UAW at the plant. Leaders of the Local 42 at the facility reportedly signed the letter.
It seems that such an agreement would clear the way for the factory to unionize after months of dispute. According to The Detroit News, under Tennessee law, workers aren't required to join the organization. Although, that might not be a problem. As of a few months ago, Local 42 already claimed to have signed around 700 of the plant's roughly 1,500 workers.
Controversy has constantly swirled around the possible unionization at the Chattanooga plant. The UAW held its official decision in February and lost 712 to 626. However, there were allegations of intense political pressure to make sure the ballot failed. A later report also found that VW was offered $300 million in incentives well before the vote to make sure things progressed to the "satisfaction of the State of Tennessee," but the deal was later retracted. In July, the UAW opened Local 42 on the campus in hopes of signing up a majority of the workforce by volunteering to be a part of it.
2014 Volkswagen Golf GTD is our favorite oil-burning GTI
Tue, 05 Mar 2013
The 2014 Volkswagen Golf GTD has officially bowed at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. Engineers managed to squeeze an additional 14 horsepower and 22 pound-feet of torque out of the familiar 2.0-liter turbodiesel four-cylinder engine, nudging total output to 184 hp and 280 lb-ft for 2014. The figures are good enough to earn the GTD the honor of being the most powerful diesel Golf in Volkswagen history. A start/stop system helps improve efficiency over the previous generation with the new model consuming 56 miles per gallon on the EU cycle. That's up from the 2013 model's 46 mpg. A six-speed manual transmission is standard equipment, though a six-speed dual-clutch gearbox is also available.
The GTD also offers buyers a few aesthetic tweaks to help separate the hatch from its less potent siblings. Those include a more aggressive front fascia, special badges and 17-inch alloy wheels. Expect to find the GTD in one of three exterior colors, including Tornado Red, Black and Pure White. Check out the quick press release below for more details.
