This section is one that I just thought of doing from time to time since I have been looking at classified car adds in Mexico for the last 2 years and know how much interesting things can appear. There will be pictures of the car listing and a small description about it. Lets begin.
2004 Volkswagen Bettle "Vocho" Final Edition
This is the last year the VW beetle, or as we call it here "Sedan" "Vocho" was produced in the city of Puebla. While everywhere else in the world this was discontinued around the 1970s, people in Mexico kept buying the thing until it reached its peak point and sales started decreasing around the 00s. The last production VW Beetle, number 21,529,464, rolled off the production line the 30th of July of 2003.
The final edition was limited to 3,000 units and is now considered to be a collectors car included special features individual to the model. Light Blue or Beige paint, CD player with 4 speakers, chrome details everywhere, coloured hubcaps, parcel shelf, Wolfsburg badge in frunk, tinted glass, and the VW "Ultima Edicion" (Final Edition) Badge.
Its powered by a 50HP 1.6 litre engine and a 4 speed stick and only has 6,400 Km. on the ODO, or 4,038 Miles.
All yours for $169,000 pesos. Which is a LOT compared to a Vocho of a couple of years older, but it is now considered a legend and a classic.
$169,000 Pesos- $12,962 Dollars.

There are only 2 I that have many adds. autoplaza.com.mx, and mercadolibre.com.mx; But Mercado Libre is sort of a mexican version of Craigslist. Once I found they sold a piece of the ice that they said was part of the iceberg that titanic hit for like 20,000 Pesos or 1,500 dollars....
