Would You Buy This Car? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Mikado · 02-03-2008, 11:43 PM

Some time ago, I typed "2008 VW Beetle" in Google and found several pics of this "New Beetle" based wagon.....Should VW build this thing, and, would you buy it? (I guess it answers the question "What if I love the Beetle, but need more room?"

)

I don't drive stick. And even if I did, that would be the last car I would get. Me and VW's don't mix.

bingbangbaby · 02-04-2008, 01:00 AM

Well I wouldn't buy it personally but that's because I don't need it. It's cute though and if I had kids or something maybe I'd consider buying it.

Then you should have voted "Its cute, but not for me"

I'm old fashioned. Give me the old beetle any day. The new things are ugly.

dawsongirl · 02-04-2008, 01:15 AM

No way...it's ugly, too small, and I don't like wagons.

Well, I dont mind the new Beetle but, I prefer the old one too......especially the 55-57s with the "Bullet" turn signal lights and a ragtop

JoPol_wannabe · 02-04-2008, 01:36 AM

Oh I hate VW's, I like the color of the cars I just hate the cars. There is a lady here that has one and she hates having to drive it in the snow and on ice because it slips and slides all the time but she refuses to get rid of it and buy another car. I will never buy one. I love the vehical I have which is a Jeep Liberty. I like it because I sit up higher, you turn on the lights and it looks almost like it's day light out and it handles great on ice and snow

Take me for a ride then

btw, its on sale at The Samba VW site for $21,000 US

I am a truck/hummer person, so I personally wouldn't buy it because of my preferences. But i think that is the best VW beetle i ever saw, it is cute, doesn't look weird like the original ones do. It's more modern looking and even the color is good for it.
