Turbo power

Had to give my 2018 vw back because of my bad hip, otherwise it would of giving me many yrs of fun driving this powerful Beetle turbo! with a 2.0 4cylinder engine the beetle felt like I was driving a porch it was very fast plus the stance was nice looking now I have a tguan by vw and it too has alot of power with the 2.0 engine its a shame their gonna stop production on these makes so better get yours soon and keep it in great condition cause someday a collector will buy it for their collection also thumbs up for Kearney Mesa VW on Balboa ave., San Diego, Ca., 92111 they are an awesome group of people who understand your needs and handicaps too! very polite and very helpful!.

Is the beetle really no more?

It's a great take me back to the good old days. Even though I was never alive through the heydays of the original beetle. Something about this little car has something that makes you feel like you're back in time. It's a great thing when you can feel like you're back in time but with all the technologies of today and the comforts we are used to. If your looking for a peppy, comfy car to commute in this is a great choice. But do check out some of the other contenders. So you can see for your self how much of value this car truly is.

The Beetle /Convertible experience

I am grateful to be in a position to purchase a car that reflects the lifestyle that brought me to Florida. I can recall getting up and being excited to drive my car. I am actually early for appointments this week ... lol. The Beetle has exceeded my expectations and brings considerable peace of mind (people first warranty)
