  • new beetle newbie :)

    hey guys,
    just signed up this morning and thought i should introduce myself and my car. I know not many people are a fan of new beetles but i recently just picked up my new beetle about 2months ago.

    Its a 2000 model, New beetle complete with full body kit, sports exhaust, performance chip, tinted windows, sunroof, 6 stack CD player, Lowered suspension and 18" mags.

                    Hi Jess,
                    Welcome to the fold. I entirely agree with what blakanac said. The kit and wheels make it much more aggressive and give it a much more proportioned look overall.
                    Kudos on the buy.
                    Cheers

                        didn't the mk2's have a funny 45' exhaust tip?

                        Nice car again... Whats the rev limiter set at for that 2.0l? Mines chipped, apparently... I only notice it after 2nd.

                            thanks guys for the warm welcome to the forum.
                            have been cruizing through all the threads and you seem like a great bunch of people will have to meet up with some of you at the shows.
                            It took me a while to like the new beetle shape myself, after owning a 75beetle and restoring it, i knew i needed a reliable daily driver and knowing i couldnt get myself out of volkswagens i started looking at the new beetles and when i saw this one i knew i had to have it


                            cheers jess
