New New Beetle

[rfernatt]

I kinda like the new look - a more muscular retro Bug...

2011 Volkswagen New Beetle - Next Generation Beetle - Automobile Magazine

The new New Beetle is due to appear in spring 2011 and will, like its predecessor, be built in Puebla, Mexico. It will adopt suspension components from the last-generation Golf. U.S. buyers will choose from three familiar engines: a 2.5-liter five-cylinder (170 hp), a 2.0-liter turbo unit (200 hp), and a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel (140 hp). Transmission choices will include manuals and dual-clutch automatics with up to seven speeds.

The new version grows by 3.5 inches in length and sports a flatter roofline, a more upright windshield, a wider track, and a reduced front overhang. The extended rear end accommodates a larger cargo area, and the roomier passenger compartment offers more headroom.

Especially when the little kid hits the guy in the groin. OUCH.

I like the last one where the blind guy hits the other guy after 'seeing' the VW. The other says 'How do you do that?'.

The new new bug really looks nice. World Car Fans has an article on it.

Not just any blind guy, Stevie Wonder.

Anyway the New...New Beetle looks pretty nice and unlike the older models men's sexuality won't be judged every time they drive it

True. Unless it's Pink
or still comes with a flower vase

Very close to the original and yet so cool. I like it.

Calling Stevie Wonder a "blind guy" is like calling the Pope, "just another Catholic"!

But I admit, I do like the look of the New Beetle!

I could not remember his name. My mind was a total blank. I like his music. It must be old age.

I wonder if they will still make the VW chico.

Not bad.
