2012 TDI for sale

I am getting tired of waiting on VW as they promised me my final offer almost 3 months ago and I have still yet to receive it. So I decided to test the waters and see what people would pay for it. Here is a link to the ad https://indianapolis.craigslist.org/cto/5994067735.html

damn, you're going to sell it back with all that stuff added?

also do you have the original exhaust? for someone to buy this they would need to bring the exhaust back to OEM stock so VW could retrofit the crap that will meet the stupid EPA regs.

Yes because in the end it would cost me more to return it to stock than to just leave it how it is. I do not have the original exhaust. The reason I took it off was because the DPF cracked so it was shot and I scrapped it. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I'm under the impression that I do not have to get the emissions fixed if I don't want to.

at some point these cars will be flagged by the EPA and you will not be able to renew your registration until it has been fixed, the cars are technically illegal since they were never up to EPA regs when sold. that is why there is a buy back.

it is still uncertain what the fix will be on the MK6s, if VW comes out with a new turbo back exhaust system with add blue and a flash then this would be an easy "fix" at the dealer then return back to modded.

I can tell you, with a NORMAL car in California, someone who removes emission equipment has to replace it before they can sell it. And there is no limit to what it costs, the SELLER must replace it and prove the car meets emission requirements BEFORE the car can be sold.

Any California buyer would be nuts to touch your car. Other states may be different. But why would anyone want to take the chance with a DieselGate car? They are going to get a VERY hard look at for emissions, even after they are fixed.

Your best bet is to sell the car to VW and hope for the best. You likely will be OK, IMHO.

I would by it if it was closer to me and a little cheaper

The car is owned by me. I bought the car from speedway motors and just used the pictures they took of it when it was on their lot.

OK thanks for clarifying:
Few years back when I sold lubricants (specialized especially among racing) the name Speedway Motors Inc. rang a bell. As I met old drag racers from the 50's & 60's plus people in the industry.

Out of curiosity, what was the ballpark offer that VW gave you?

Nothing found at your link.

Most likely he has sold the car and he will not be back here. Or he has taken the car off the market because he heard from VW on the buy back.

the oil company is out of CT, I've ran their stuff, very nice and high quality. the race shop I used to work at is a vendor for them as well.

if this car had more options I would have bought it, CT doesn't care about emissions past no CEL and a cat. Our emissions check is just an OBD2 read and cat check. so unless the recall goes far enough and some how all TDI VINs are flagged in the CT DMV/Emissions system no one would know if this was fixed or not.

I'd check and make sure the ECU on this car shows readiness monitors when plugged in. I am pretty certain a deleted CR TDI won't show readiness in MA. CT is the same, I believe.

I sold the car.
