Volkswagen

Spider

4-Cylinder Turbo

Gasoline

This car's story starts with the original owner buying it brand new in 2018. Right away, he dealt with ongoing engine issues that the VW dealership could never pinpoint after repeated visits. He turned to Garret at Southside AutoWerks a VW/Audi specialist with years as a Volkswagen engineer and time at APR (the kings of VW/Audi performance). Garret quickly diagnosed loss of compression in one piston. Rather than a basic fix, the owner went all-in: the engine was pulled and sent to APR at just 30,000 miles for a full Stage 2 rebuild and upgrade at APR factory. Built with premium components for reliability and serious power: Mahle forged pistons and rods (forged internals for high-boost durability) APR downpipe, intercooler, cold air intake, full exhaust APR wheels Aerofabb spoilers APR suspension stabilizers The tune is configured for premium fuel and delivers over 400+ horsepower - this thing pulls hard and feels like a completely different car. It also includes an APR boost gauge mounted in the boot (clean, factory-look install) and APR badging replacing the standard GTI badges for that subtle, sleeper vibe. The car is fully track-ready yet remains a comfortable, reliable daily driver. The build was done by true experts, and it shows in the performance and condition. I bought it last year at 100k miles; it now sits at 114k. I've only added about 10k miles. Just installed four brand-new Continental ExtremeContact Sport tires (under 10k miles on them - 90%+ tread remaining). Runs strong, no issues, and everything works as it should. Selling because my wife got a new car and the driveway is packed - this GTI deserves an enthusiast who appreciates a properly built Stage 2 with forged internals. The price is firm at $18,000 cash. No trades, no financing, no lowballs. Replicating this build today (APR labor, forged motor, all the parts) would easily exceed $35k$40k. At 113k miles and $18k, tthis is an absolute steal for anyone in the VW scene.
