Re: It’s……the New/Beetle Spotting thread!
I used to own a 68' Continental Coupe. First car I bought when I came to America in 1995. It was the most relaxed driving experience ever.

My older sister wrecked our '68 Beetle at college. When they repainted it she had them change it to bright yellow. She threatened to put spots on it and make it a ladybug. I was embarrassed and said she couldn't park it at our house if she did.
Now I regret not encouraging her to have some fun.
