Bonjour Everyone!
I'm posting this for sale ad here as I know that some very lucky people in Quebec were able to import "salvage" R32's, and therefore the tuning community is well aware of the amazing factory VW R32.
As we all know, the limited 2004 VW R32 was officially not available in Canada, so this car (the HPA R28 Turbo) had to be built. HPA Motorsports in Vancouver made it even better than the original factory machine, …and then some!
This one of a kind custom European Car Magazine Project Car, and Winner: Best Performance Car at Calgary Sport Compact Night 2006 was hand crafted by world renowned HPA Motorsports in Vancouver using a brand new 2002.5 VW GTI VR6 24V. This vehicle was purchased brand new 293km) in late January 2004 and work began immediately at HPA.
Modifications include: HPA Motorsports R32 AWD conversion (4Motion) with HPP Haldex control, HPA FT410 (bhp) Single Turbo system with dual side mount intercoolers, KW V1/V3 Coil-overs, Porsche Brakes, Forged wheels, and many many more extras.
This vehicle is in excellent condition and performs at exotic levels of acceleration, speed, handling and braking. Also, it is completely Canada legal (as it was built with a Canadian donor car), all work is fully documented with 38,000 km on the clock.
For long distance Buyers, I will endeaver to provide for half of the round trip flight cost to come to Calgary for a viewing and test drive (one you will never forget!). Also, I will provide as much info as possible: records, more photos and possibly video, prior to such a trip for seroius buyers only.
For more information and complete details see:
The following spec sheet and visit http://www.europeancarweb.com/projectcars/ (Project “My R32 Blues”) and http://www.hpamotorsport.com .
Serious inquiries should call or e-mail me at (403) 807-0977 days, (403) 275-4176 evenings and weekends, or dougrhea@telusplanet.net
Project duplication cost: +C$85,000 (all supporting documentation available at viewing).
New Pricing: Asking C$55,000, offers welcome - must sell !
Reason for selling: I am ready to move on to my next European Car adventure and have just purchased a new car that will be a new project car with European Car Magazine in the very near future.
Please note that questions will not be answered on this thread, contact me directly.
Best regards,
