A 2.5-liter inline five-cylinder petrol engine that produces 150 horsepower is pretty much lergatic. I hope the next Beetle is not as gay or girly as the current car or just a mere fashion accessory

I think you mean 'lethargic' Nederina. Quite frankly, I am baffled by VW's claim that this Beetle is NEW! It must be the joke of the decade, but I'm hardly amused.

I agree with you. It looked silly next to the newer range and thank you for the correction :)

The Current Beetle has always been known as the "New Beetle" (as opposed to the Old Aircooled Model) and this is the last version of that model before the next Generation(and hopefully much better) model arrives. It has lasted a fair while though so it must be considered a success . Weird Dud Drive However and soooo Girly.

I hope they can succeed this with an update up to the standard of the Mini Cooper. If not then they should just let it rest. This iteration was just lame.

I guess they decided that they couldn't milk it for another 5 years.
