01 VW GTI VR6 12V Custom Turbo KW V3 RH Wheels R32 Upgrades Upgraded Engine

Up for sale is my 2001 VW GTI VR6 12 Turbo. It is a beauty queen that flaunts a lot of engine, suspension, transmission, interior, and exterior upgrades. This vehicle has about $65k into it between all the upgrades. I'm selling it because I have several built GTi's for sale and unfortunately they are not being driven so it's time to pass them onto a new owner. Let me provide some background.

This vehicle was professionally built by my mechanic when he owned his previous shop, Sleeper's Performance. Many of the exterior and interior upgrades were done by the previous owner, a good customer of ours. It has a refreshed motor (basically the engine was cleaned, hone, checked and refreshed by the machine shop), custom turbo setup with a water to air intercooler, KW V3 coilovers, RH 3 piece wheels and more. The vehicle has been garaged for most, if not all, of its life. It is an great overall condition, exterior, interior and engine wise. Below is a basic list of the upgrades that were installed.

As you can see there is a huge amount of time and money into this GTi. There are some minor issues, like some small chipped paint on the rear fender, some paint work on one of the doors, and unfortunately the real carbon fiber roof has some cracks. The carbon fiber is fine but the epoxy cracked one day. The vehicle is sold as is. No warranty. Happy bidding. I reserve the right to end this auction early and sell the vehicle locally or via other means I have listed. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you.
