Event: AWE Tuning’s BBQ and Car Show

Philadelphia-based aftermarket staple AWE Tuning has had quite the year.  Over these last 12 months, the brand has launched a full line of products for BMW and moved to a larger facility, all while expanding their support for Porsche, Audi and Volkswagen models.  It only makes sense then, that this year’s BBQ and Car Show be the largest one yet.

Although the event was the recipient of a one-week rain delay, cars quickly filled the parking lot, the lawn surrounding their new building, and the road they’re located on.  Not bad for an event that kicked off at 5pm, while many were either still at work or stuck somewhere on Philadelphia’s gridlocked highways.

The cars surrounding AWE’s new headquarters were certainly impressive in their own right, but it was the building itself that was the main attraction.  Many walked right past the McLarens and Maseratis brought by AWE’s friends on the Main Line to get in a lengthy queue, awaiting their tour of the new facility.

And the tour well worth the wait.  Featuring everything that has made AWE Tuning what it is today, just more of it, attendees were able to get a true feel of what it takes to make AWE’s bread and butter products.  It’s a process that we’re quite familiar with, having been able to watch our Golf SportWagen’s system take these very steps just a few weeks ago.

Review: Saying Goodbye to the CC V6

For all its size and its global reach, Volkswagen is still, in many ways, a deeply human company. There was, for instance, the Bugatti Veyron an ego project if ever there was one. Then the purchase of Ducati, a move most called folly. And then there was the Phaeton, the Volkswagen that most folks can’t afford. Not only were these moves all strange, I’m sure that they made VW’s accountants furious. None of them made good business sense, but they were all deeply interesting and they all are evidence of the heart that beats at the center of VW. Among these follies is the CC, a car that everyone agrees is rakishly handsome, but that no one really wanted to buy. The car couldn’t last, but the world is brighter for its having been in it. With the approach debut of the Arteon, it seems like a good time to look back on its sadly departing predecessor. The version I drove, because I live in Canada, is a V6 Wolfsburg Edition, which apparently isn’t available in the States. Nor is the V6, not as...

More 3.0-Liter TDI Settlement Details Expected by January 31

Volkswagen and the TDI Plaintiff’s Steering Committee were in court today for another status conference following the agreement in principal reached earlier this week. Little new information was given at the conference held before Judge Charles Breyer today, but the court ordered the parties to develop a formal settlement agreement, class action notices, and a class notice plan by January 31, 2017. For now, though, owners still don’t know how much to expect in compensation. Elizabeth Cabraser, lead Counsel for the Plaintiff’s Steering Committee reaffirmed in a statement today that the compensation would be “substantial.” The potential cost to Volkswagen is widely reported to exceed $1 billion, though, with an additional $225 million going into an environmental trust to help offset excess emissions. Buy back offers are still only expected for the oldest 20,000 of the roughly 80,000 VW Group vehicles sold in America with the 3.0-liter TDI engine. Those vehicles are mostly SUVs, like ...
