Title: 2012 VW Bug Post by: Monster Dave on October 04, 2010, 11:17:39 AM Check it out,
Here's the first spy shots of the 2012 made for America VQ Bug: (http://blogs.insideline.com/straightline/assets_c/2010/10/Volkswagen%20Beetle%20%201carpix-thumb-717x477.jpg) (http://blogs.insideline.com/straightline/Volkswagen%20Beetle%20%20333.jpg) Never a huge fan of the recent style, so I like this one a good bit better.

I agree the front bumper looks like it's just stuck on there - not perfect just yet.

Missed it by THAT much.

Nice tradition faithfully maintained ;) [laugh]Title: Re: 2012 VW Bug Post by: Rameses on October 05, 2010, 03:50:32 AM Wow. I didn't think I could want one any less. Now this. Title: Re: 2012 VW Bug Post by: ungeheuer on October 05, 2010, 03:57:36 AM ... at least the previous model came with an artificial flower, some ridiculously large blue shoes, a red nose and a rubber-orb-honking-horn.
Title: Re: 2012 VW Bug Post by: muskrat on October 05, 2010, 05:24:42 AM looks like they are trying, although slightly, to emulate the Porsche Speedster
Title: Re: 2012 VW Bug Post by: badgalbetty on October 05, 2010, 06:00:56 AM my first reaction was PT Cruiser. Its awful. I really would like to have a current model bug they are soooooooooooo cute!
Title: Re: 2012 VW Bug Post by: lethe on October 05, 2010, 06:06:00 AM It is a good chassis (assuming it is the one I think it will be) but my (very biased) opinion is that with the Golf body it is far better as there is too much wasted space in trying to make it look all retro and all that bullshit.
If they end up actually putting this on that cost concious chassis that they are putting the newest of Jettas then it will truly be a turd all around. |
