Used 2009 Volkswagen New Beetle for Sale

I really had high hopes for this car. I am a huge fan of VW in general. I've owned a lot of cars by them in all sorts of different models. However when it came to the new Beetle, I was greatly disappointed. It looks great, it really does, but when it comes down to function, I was let down. It gets decent gas mileage, but you shouldn't abuse it as a daily driver. You can't haul virtually anything in it, including people that are adult size. My particular car just ate batteries to no end, and really made my Monday's more difficult than need be. Granted, I did buy it used, for a pretty penny though.

The Volkswagen new Beetle packs a lot of fun into a little package! Easily identifiable worldwide, the Beetle is not just fun to look at but super fun to drive. The five-speed manual transmission gives just the right amount of get up go, while the 2.5L engine gives great gas mileage. With same body-color bumper, grills, door handles, and mirrors, the Beetle has a sleek, smooth design that comes in vibrant colors such as "Gecko Green", "Salsa Red", and "Sunflower Yellow". And even though I am six feet tall, I have plenty of leg room. The back seat folds down to provide extra cargo space as well. The interior features automatic windows, seat heaters, and is equipped with a great stereo system. Removable floor mats make it easy to clean and the leatherette seats are also easy to maintain. For the cons, the car is very basic as far as luxury goes. Seats are reclined using a knob that is somewhat difficult to turn. The cruise control stopped working shortly after I purchased the vehicle. I have also had to replace the headlights twice in the three years that I have owned the vehicle. Repairs can be rather expensive, including the battery replacement. However, I love the car. It is fun to drive and funny to watch people saying "punch bug" when I drive by!
