2012 Beetle Is Worth A Look-see. — Compared to our 2007 Beetle, handling is better, acceleration is better. Interior is nicer with retro accents and more storage. The audio is a nice addition and the NAV seems adequate. The alloy wheels with the hideous plastic discs are gonna be altered soon. Supposedly, the MKIV Jetta AVUS wheel center caps can be swapped in for a much more sophisticated look. I'll post pics when that's done.

Super Sassy — This is a fun, eye catching ride. Its very shiny and clean inside. The leather sets are nice and soft, and wait for it...... heated!! It has bluetooth and led lighting around the speakers and on the doors. One word-Farfegnugen
