old was better

...Pros: good on gas Cons: give me the OLD Beetle--ti had something the new ones never will Overall: rather have the Old Beetle anyday...

#2
Black Turbo Launch
Source: Edmunds

...It very comfortable and the arrangment inside makes since and everything is handy for use. BIG PROBLEM - The drivers door automatic window does not function correctly. From day one it does not close all the way and takes 5-6 attempts to get it to go all the way up. It has been rained in two times already because of this. I took it to the dealer and they say there is no problem and if there is it's because of the window tint. I explained it has had a problem since day one and that there are numerous complaints across the internet regarding the same problem...

2003 New Beetle - BLCC
Source: MSN Autos

...Pros: Gas mileage, handling, styling (inside/outside), ROOM!
I like everything about this car ... :) Cons: I like everything about my car except two things: 1.
Front cup holders are pretty much useless. 2. Sun visors - since I am short, the sun visors dont do much for me.
Overall: I have the 2003 Blue Lagoon Color Concept (BLCC) with the 1.8 Liter Turbo engine. The turbo comes on quickly, and sounds wonderful!...

Turbie,my turbo S beetle
Source: MSN Autos

...Pros: A break from the norm. Cons: It's already been back to the dealer for a couple minor repairs.(which will probably happen with any new car) Overall: Speaking for the turbo S,
I think it's a total package.A fine balance between speed, styling, and comfort.Not many people know the difference between the turbo S and a regular bug.
I've never recieved as much attention or had as much fun just sitting at a stop light, so do your research the car has alot to offer...
