My Fun Car!

This car is amazing! The turbo gives me the additional power and the roominess inside is surprising. This is a sentimental purchase-my first car in 1975 was a red beetle. Now at my retirement, I purchased a little red Beetle convertible. Absolutely LOVE it!! It just makes me giggle when I turn on the music and put the top down!

Beautiful, sporty ride

This car is beautiful inside and out. It is comfy and spacious for two people but can fit 4. The trunk bit a whole week worth of groceries.

I have always wanted a beetle; no regrets !

It's a great car and so compact. I love driving it in the city and lots of power out on the highway. It's so sporty looking because of the color and the gold wheels to match. Its the size that suits my needs and has wonderful features inside. I am sure I will enjoy this car for many years.

Great car

This is my seventh VW. I purchased my first one in September 1969. It is amazing how many improvements there have been. Back in 1969 they also sold a tool kit consisting of seven basic tools so I could repair anything on the car; from dropping an engine to installing new brakes. Of course the 1969 VW cost $1609. I wonder what my next VW will be; driverless?

Miss Daisy

I drove a Dodge SUV for the past 3 years and hated every minute of it. I'm thrilled to have another VW Beetle Convertible! She is my 3rd and is so much fun to drive. I absolutely love it. I don't think I'll ever buy a different vehicle again. I missed the Beetle so much.

2014 Beetle GSR

Love the beetle GSR, lighting quick. 6sp auto with manual shift is smooth. Interior comfortable. Seats good support and manually adjustable. Radio navigation system good sound with fender system. LOVE IT. Yellow color draws the looks for other drivers.
