    I LOVE this car! It is sporty and so fun to drive. There is no other car I would rather have. I’m going to drive it until the wheels fall off.

    i bought one with a swapped 2.5L and a upgraded turbo. ill tell you right now @ 300WHP in a 2000~lb car is amazing fun for curvy roads and confusing the hell outta people when they realize that this car isnt your sisters flower power mobile anymore.

      Yes I have the 2012 beetle turbo in black it's a great looking car. If you buy a beetle you have to get the R line or equivalent 2012 turbo they are the best looking beetles of the current generation.

      Don’t be. They didn’t even use the beetle Dune model to do jumps. 😂 AND It’s not even a turbo model. Lol easy 7.5 or 8 ifs they used the 2.0t dsg or manual. Even the interior is slightly better because of the of the interior gauges.

    Volkswagen missed the boat with this one. I know you can only have so many " hot hatches " but along with the more sedate, sensible ones there could have been a 300hp, all wheel drive, suspension and brake fruit, turbocharged WRX challenger! Leave out the back seats, put in a half roll cage and market the go fast set. Maybe call it the 2•0 RS. Yes I am a Beetle tragic!

      @bh2155 5 лет назад +2

      People say that all the time because the first generation new Beetle had the flower vase. Ever since then people say it's feminine. However if you look at the car it's nothing feminine about it with the low roof line, fat tires and huge spoiler in the back it looks rather aggressive especially in black and silver. It has the similar silhouette to the 911 but a bit rounder but nothing but men drive Porsche. People just copy each other an keep repeating the same old thing enough so that they totally destroy the reputation of vehicle.
