The one car that identify with VW, growing up in Hawaii, is the original Beetle. When the New Beetle was introduced, I thought to myself, "Well that's great." However, I drove one a few days ago and I've come to discover something quite important. THE NEW BEETLE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE OLD ONE. To me, what made the old one great is the fact that is was a real car, and cheap. Engine in the back, light weight, surprisingly roomie, cheap, and basically a fat Porsche in terms of performance. The new one, not the same. As I was driving it, I realized...wow this is very boring. It doesn't feel anything like a mid-ship....and I opened the trunk......to see a trunk........THE ENGINE IS IN THE FRONT!!!!! Oh well...now I see why this is only a girls car. Boys, buy a Jetta or Golf or something with testicles.
