Default New Beetle Retro Fit? - 11-22-2006 , 04:55 AM






The New VW Beete has been around for a considerable time now and has
not changed in style at all.
Whats it going to be? time for retro design remake or make it look more
modern which would be somewhat pointless..

Any Oppinions?

I believe the plan is to drop it. The Rabbit will return.

VW already made minor cosmetic changes inside and out. Bumpers & fenders are
different along with instrument cluster. As for how long it will last...
that all depends how long it meets federal crash & safety standards?

It just got a mile restyle for '06. Given that just happened, it's probably
gonna be around for a few more years.

The Rabbit already returned like 6 months ago. One has nothing to do with
the other. The NB is a retro-mobile, the Rabbit is not.
