Because neither y’all nor FP (Looking your way Torch >_>) ever told me this was a thing.
The Beetle classic.
A Mk6 GTI with retro beetle looks? WHAT MORE COULD YOU WANT FROM VW!?
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! in case of Kinja.
If I was in the market for a 20k DD I’d buy this in a heart beat electrical problems be damned, assuming the Triptronic isn’t totally worthless, the one draw back is there’s no manual :(
Here’s how I’d spec mine.
Chrome exhaust tips- Because classy
Splash guards- Because protect the paint yo, and compacts don’t look right without splash guards IMO.
Wheel locks- So VWvortex forum readers don’t try to steal muh wheels when they try to revert their car back to stock.
That’s basically like half the options.

“A Mk6 GTI”
No; that is a 170hp Beetle.

I’m not a fan of the Beetle.
But I’d take 1.4TSi 150.
The wheels are fantastic.
Has to be manual, has to be petrol

I worked at a VW dealership this past summer. I fell in love with a Bottle Green one we had on the showroom floor. Bottle Green over that interior is a match made in heaven.
I just wish it had those old Beetle style wheels you could get up until last year.

I apologize. I was supposed to tell you, and I got distracted by something tiny and forgot.

It looks great but I wish it actually had the 2.0T GTI engine...

With no DSG.

I like the look of the intoerior to bad that tweed is probably just pressed vinyl “leather”

You can get one with the 2.0L T out of the GTI and a DSG just not the classic trim. I would be all over that too if it existed. I’ve been low key looking on the used market for a 2.0T one with a manual as a weekend car one of these days

Actually, it’s not bad at all. It’s actual cloth, not pressed vinyl. I like it a lot.

I also like those seats in the VW Scirocco.

It wasn’t a knock against you. VW USA used to offer the Beetle 2.0T with the 1.8T...
