2006 Jetta TDI for sale

So I have this car finally built like I want it. I think I may be selling it for something newer. I recently have put over $4000 in it. Here goes...

2006 Jetta TDI with package 2.
Silver with 17" CC wheels
135,000 miles
PD105 Darkside Developments Turbo
Buzzkin Downpipe
3 bar Map sensor
Malone stage 4 tune
VR6 single mass flywheel
New Cam that replaced the factory cam.
EGR and cooler have been removed
New South Performance Turbo gauge. 3rd gears shows 23-25lbs boost
New suspension and bushings all around
New cross drilled rotors with ceramic brakes
Tires are around 70% tread left
Custom TDI floormats
Trailer hitch. I have a plug n play wiring harness I will include.
Euro headlights
Euro headlight swith
New headliner
Just replaced the heater hoses and thermostat.
Rear spoiler
NAV and DVD, looks factory.
Heated seats
Sunroof
35% legal Georgia tint

I dyno'ed it to 150HP to the wheels and 289ftlbs of torque to the wheels. That's around 170/332 at the Crank. It's a beast.
I also get 50-60MPG on the HWY and around 35MPG city. This car needs nothing and I have no idea why I want a hybrid.. I love my diesel!!

All of my work has been done by TDIRichard here in GA on the forums. This car needs nothing. It's a beauty. text at 6785927131 or email at mannintucker@yahoo.com I have a clean title in hand.

$6900

I totaled my ALH (deer then guardrail.....) and am looking for another TDI that isn't anywhere close to stock. When was the TB done on yours last? Also, can you pickup at a nearby airport or is delivery for fuel/time/return ticket a possibility. Thanks!

Maybe we will hear from the new owner on how he likes it. Would be nice to know how it stacks up against the older models since I have been eyeing the 2006 as a replacement.

After a journey of 904 miles through snow/ice on I 20 in one shot I am happy to report that it rides/drives much nicer than my ALH. I was hesitant to buy anything newer than a 2003 because that is what I know and have been comfortable with. As with most anything else in my life, CHANGE IS BAD!

I departed Atlanta airport around 10:30am local time after getting a rundown of the car from iflyasa, handing him money, and headed west on I20. I was slowed for weather repeatedly as well as a few complete standstills for idiots causing accidents since they don't know how to SLOW DOWN on the slushy stuff. The worst of it was definitely in Mississippi. Since they closed the I20 bridge to LA for a few hours I stopped into the Ameristar riverboat in Jackson MS to eat dinner and spend $20 in the penny slots. The car was off for a few hours during my stop there, but other than that it was running the entire trip. I left Ameristar and finally succumbed to fatigue near Powell, TX on state highway 31. I found a 'picnic area', pulled off, laid the seat back and went to sleep for about 3 hours. I left the engine running to keep the heater going. I would post pictures of the car in my drive but I'm afraid iflyasa would be sad to see how dirty his baby is after the trip through the storm. As soon as my hoses thaw I will give it a proper bath.

Trip summary-
904mi driven based on the GPS
temperatures ranged from 38f down to 12f
when road conditions permitted I sped 5-9MPH over the limit
All interstate until I turned off I20 in Texas and then it was mostly state highway and farm to market roads
hand calculated fuel mileage for the trip was 42.2

Of additional note, iflyasa was great throughout this entire transaction by providing emailed receipts of the work and constant text communication from agreement to purchase through my trip home.
