Find Of The Day Of The Dead: No Reserve Zombie-Edition GLI

It doesn’t take much braaaains to see the value in a no-reserve auction. You get a feeling deep down in your guts that it’s a great deal. You know you have to bid quickly before the car shuffles off to someone else. If you’ve just been wandering around aimlessly looking for your next ride, then this Find Of The Day, a 2013 Volkswagen Jetta GLI.

First, let’s get to the gory details. This GLI is mostly stock. It has an EA888 2.0T engine making 200 horsepower. While we tend to highlight manual transmission cars, this one has a DSG dual-clutch transmission; keep that left had free for clearing a path through apocalyptic traffic. It has xenon headlights with LED marker lights that’ll cut a bright path through the darkest of streets. There’s even a sunroof up top: it’s another way out should your killer ride get swarmed by onlookers.

Inside it’s standard GLI-fare. Any biohazard will wipe right off the leatherette seats (don’t let ad fool you; it’s not dead cowhide). This GLI has navigation so you won’t get trapped down a dead-end alley or lost on a supply run. Your favorite tunes from Rob Zombie will sound great pumped out of the Fender audio system.

This GLI has some upgrades too. While it’s not listed in the ad, the car appears to sit on a lowered suspension. There’s a set of black alloy wheels that are sure to hide brake dust and any muck that gets sloshed onto them. And the car is wrapped in Candy White paint, but it’s got some red on it too.

The current bid on this 2013 GLI is a mere $1,525. Check out the eBay auction for more info.  There are even 50+ photos of the Houston, Texas car.

But if you’re interested you better move fast: this no-reserve auction ends in just a few days. A deal like this doesn’t just come back from the dead once it’s gone.

2018 Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster Review

“Supercars just don’t excite me anymore.” These words, spoken to me over a month ago by another journalist, friend, and (so-called) enthusiast were echoing in my head for far too long, but they’ve finally been drowned out. Drowned out by the wail of a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the new Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster. My friend’s point is that back in the good old days, there was a crop of supercars that captured the imagination with amazing style, sounds, performance, and more. Today, it seems like everything is capable of supercar performance, with large luxury sedans outdoing some of the best and most dedicated teams of car nuts, while former pillars of automotive excellence are suddenly pumping out family-friendly SUVs. Beyond that, another league of supercars, dubbed hypercars have cropped up with hybrid gas-electric powertrains that make magical things happen quickly, but at the cost of the acoustic drama, visual flair, and engag...

Project SportWagen: Going Stage 2 with APR

    When we last left you, the humble little SportWagen was fresh from the development process with our friends at AWE Tuning, sporting a new downpipe, exhaust and intake, allowing things to breathe a bit easier.  The car sounded great, but there was no getting around the fact that our wagon was still quite, well, slow.   While we realize that nothing we do to the Golf SportWagen at this point will make it a race car, we still felt compelled to do something .  To put it bluntly, we had a fever, and the only cure was more power. Flash forward a few hours, and we found ourselves at Waterfest, staring down APR’s palatial spread and the numerous tuned vehicles surrounding it.  Earlier in the year, APR had hinted to us that their 1.8 TSI files would be quite impressive, and based on what they were able to do with the 2.0 TSI found in the new GTI and our time in their Golf R, we knew it’d be worth the wait.  So with this in mind, we lined our G...

Audi Teases A7 Details with New Video

Audi’s gearing up to unveil the latest iteration of the A7, and to get you excited they’ve released this teaser video focusing on the details. The lights, the lines, the interior are all teased here, and though on its own the video doesn’t give us a strong sense of what the whole car will look like, with all of the other details we’ve seen so far we now have a pretty good sense of what’s coming. As you might expect, the updated A7 will look broadly similar to the outgoing A7, but will differ in the details. Based on what we’ve seen, the changes look good. As was reported yesterday, we’re expecting a 3.0-liter turbocharged engine, a 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo, a 2.9-liter twin-turbo V6, and an RS7 that could reportedly make up to 700 hp thanks to the Porsche Panamera’s hybrid drivetrain. We’ll know for sure, though, on Thursday, October 19, when the car is revealed. You can watch the livestream on our site or at audi.com at 2:00 pm.
