The paint on that Bug is incredible! I thought this generation of Beetle would sell better than it has. Great review!

"one strip of bacon, please....." LOL!

that paint job is amazing I love that color and the car is great too, I don't need 700 hp or 12 inch screens just put the top down and go for a drive

Love that you've added Sarah to your videos! She's great!

Sarah I always enjoy your reviews. You have great perspective, knowledge, and I like your vibe....I'm not talking Pontiac.

You are a great reviewer... You are a straight up car person. Love ur perspective! Smartest thing TFL has done to bring you in. Kudos.

I have a 2013 Beetle 2.0T convertible. I love it but it needed a couple mods. I gave it an APR ECU and TCU tune to give it great power and to be able to keep it in the power range (272 HP, 298 torque). I also gave it a sport suspension w/ H&R springs and Koni Yellows. It's very sporty if you are willing to put a little money into it. Important to mention is you can raise and lower the top while driving up to 30 mph! Thank you for the review! I'll be sad if they stop making these great cars.

The first Beetle was designed by Ferdinand Porsche, wasn't it? Kind of explains the similarities.

Nice job sarah! Was never a fan of the new bettle . But love the old ones. I had a 69' bug as my first car and is what I learned to drive manual in!

I don't see the "infotainment" system as a con. Some people only want a (relatively) simple head unit that'll play their preferred choice of music media, not a big distracting system that demands way too much driver attention to perform even the simplest tasks.

You are amazing Sarah! I'm a big fan! Keep up the great job 😃

Awesome vid Sarah, as all yours are:) That color is beautiful, and I agree the tan goes well with it.

Nice review! A lady down the street had (I haven’t seen it in a few months) a beetle hardtop in red with the 2.0 liter, manual with the spoiler. I think the trim was the R-Line. Probably a 2014 or 15. Every time I’d drive past that car I’d be struck by how much I liked it. My wife seriously thought about buying one. She ended up with a Jetta GLI but I did get to test drive the Beetle. I think you hit the nail on the head. Puts a smile on your face.

they should try make the beetle RR again rather than FF, it'll probably be more fun than the out going car

Great review- Its rare that econ cars have character. I’m looking at buying either Coast or Dune edition Beetle. Any advice?

A Boxster based Super Beetle is a great idea. Nice job again, Sarah.

That is a really nice color. They ruined the bug when they switched from the rear engine air cooled motor and stick. You did a great presentation.

Are the cup holders updated ? The older models couldn’t fit a cup from Starbucks or water bottle :/

What's this doing in a swords playlist

Love that color combo! Unfortunately trying to find a new 2018 Beetle in this color combo is basically impossible. Searched online and there are exactly ZERO for sale within 500 miles of me. WTH!

I laughed 4 times today. 3 times while watching this vid. Thank you Sarah and tfl

I had a Jetta (1,8 Turbo) in that amazing green color - with the tan interior. Had to get it trucked down from Northern Cali because it was the only one in the state. Other than that, I'm a fan of 2 doors, convertibles and convertibles that seat 4. There are so few quirky cars anymore, it just gives me more reason to love the Beetle convertible. Makes me smile.

I love her humor it's a good thing for you to join the tfl family 🙌

What I need to know is- how much did they charge you for the 1 piece of bacon?

we need diversity in cars.

Sarah, is the beetle based on the Audi Q7 too?

Another great review! Keep them coming!

*Great job keep up the good work Sarah!!*

I guess the extra glove compartments are due to it being a soft top? You have the top down so you need lockable storage for your stuff?

great review and agree the colors (Green/tan) are fabulous.

Isn't the Boxster mid-engined? Maybe the new electric platform Volkswagen is working on would be a better option?

I had a 1968 red beetle it was fantastic only had a a.m. radio in it but I always carried for fan belts because they broke and you had to replace them under the engine was in the back of the car and only took about 10 minutes what happened was Jetta took over the beetle that's why they don't sell them anymore but this green one is just fantastic if I could find one I would definitely buy it 🇩🇪💯👍

Wow. That's cool! My aunt lives south of racetrack. It's too bad. I liked this version of the bug. And you're right, the bottle green looks great.

I think it’s safe to say that you have very unique define stile car review, that I love to watch. You get to the points on the cars that at least from my point of view it could be very helpful to start considering a car or not.

I used to go for Mexican food down in Patagonia in the early 90's via motorcycle, ...from Tucson...nice country... great descriptive video! Cheers!!

Nice review, Sarah. That car DOES look great in green and tan. I appreciate your opinion on the cars you review. Keep up the great work.

Great review, Sarah! I laughed out loud at the bacon in the seat. See ya!

I love Bugs and that is one gorgeous color combo. Tan and green go good together.😀

The color looks fantastic

Great job on the review.

My last was a red convertible 2009 and it was just so cool to cruise around in early morning or late evening with the top down. My cowboy hat fits....LOL Zippy??? ZIPPY??? got a good laugh outta that.....:)

Nice I plan on getting a vw beetle convertible like that this summer or fall

Bacon! ROFL! Amazing! Sarah you RULE!

Wow that color is beautiful.

I'm also in Arizona (in Phoenix) and I'm not a big convertibles guy. we get so much sun here and it gets so hot that when I'm in my car I want to shade myself from the fiery ball of death. Also, I feel like a car should cost less if it has a roof made out of fabric.

I'm in 2020 and getting a bug! it has been a journey! cant wait!

Really like the color, but thats about it. But great video Sarah, really like the detail you go into on each vehicle.

I agree with you. I own a 2013 with a six speed manual and a 2.0 turbo. I absolutely adore it, and it gets compliments all the time. It's too bad that everyone just wants the same thing as their neighbors, that thinking always kills off anything that isn't a copy of everything else.

The spoiler and colour look great

Five years late. But his chick is my favorite person on TFL. Are you married because i am in love with your humor! And my dad had a 1970's beetle this color green. I am feeling nostalgic and missing my dad with this car!

Great review. Would NEVER buy a beetle but love the green and tan combo.

Hi Sarah! Nice review. Sharp little car! Emphasis on little. Was that back seat as tiny as it looked? It could've been the angle, but it seemed as though if the front seats were set for a tall person that there was no room for anyone to sit in the back. Loved the insta-bacon shot, it gave me a good laugh. Looking forward to more reviews! ☺

I loved my bug (2.0 turbo, Manual), but recently traded for a S3.

I am surprised the Beetle hasn't been discounted....great review Sarah.

I want this car. I live in St Simons Island. Any chance I can find one here. I can not travel. Do you know how that can happen?

You're right Sarah,..that color is beautiful, at least in the bright sun. The top and interior color of tan, is also a good match. To me though, it seems that Volkswagen has kind of, lost their way, with the idea of the VW Beetle, and that's a pity. In my opinion, they ( VW ) should still offer the manual shift option and as well, they should have stayed with rear engine and drive system too.

Great review Sarah 👍-up.

i have loved the beetle always even the somehwat girly model from the late 90s great cars imo

But it's a dry heat right? :)

It's sad to hear VW giving up on the Beetle, the car that made the brand a historic & international icon. That's like Ford giving up on the F-series truck or Mustang. Maybe the upcoming VW Bus "ID Buzz" will bring that cool retro vibe back. TFL and Sarah-N-Tuned are both great!

Good to see Sarah back.

Sarah review's are the best! Hove her style and sense of humor! Phrasing.....

Great car! Looks cool. Keep up the good work!

Loved the bacon and french fry jokes!

great color combo

Glad to see this car has a turbo unlike the last car you did the Toyota 86 which needs one.

Imo the 500 or the mini are better even if smaller. Congrats Sarah for the great review!

I love my Beetle TDI too. I will keep him long time and take care of him. It's just a Character Car in this boring Crossover Market. Great Car and the Bottle Green looks great with the beige! 😊👍

To me this would be the perfect platform to make an all electric version with a range of 300+ miles. I personally would like the painted interior and that radio, while it’s not a sleek as a infotainment model, will probably last for many years with its simplicity!

stunning paint job 😍

Also I get that you like this car but why did you get the convertible if you don’t like to have the top down? Sunglasses generally help with that.

Love that green color! Pity it's so hard to find any green color options at all anymore.

the color looks sosoooooooooooo great

My favorite V.W. period. A green convertible> What's not to like? Make mine the sea trim for the good fender sound system and I'm good with top down cruising.

Sarah, your reviews are getting better and better.. keep up it up girl.. bacon is bacon is bacon....

G'day, Sarah! Right-on! The color is beautiful! I have a neat Green Volkswagen TDI Turbo Beetle, too!! "While diesel cars are available in many countries around the world, Volkswagen has been the only manufacturer selling diesel cars in Canada or the US. Sometimes the TDI is considered a "niche" product and I've venture to guess that is one reason there is such a 'unique crowd of members'. Where else can you say economy, and performance in the same sentence? With this economy, one can also get great range, too." Again, Thank you, Sarah! Cheers! 😊✌🏼❤️

But the real question is. Can this convertible work in deep space? Asking for a friend named Elon

Definitely a nice car. I'm glad they put so much character into it. It's one of the most fun and engaging interiors I've seen on a car in a very long time. I too would love to see them do something rear engined with RWD but they'll never do it. I would definitely love a hotter performance variant of the Beetle but I also know I'm never going to buy one lol. I might actually take the Transit over one of these just because I like having space for me and stuff but that's not to say this isn't a massively fun car to drive. I would rather take an old Beetle and mod it out into a dunebug though. Great review! Happy to have you on the team, Sarah :D

Coming from a person that likes trucks and muscle cars i could say i dig this beetle

Great presentation. I live in St Simons Island, Georgia Price??

Definitely wasnt ready for her charming personality, and knowledge and the same time.

Enjoyed the video .... love the unique interior, refreshing to see color again “do you want the muted gray, dark black or beige? We can add dull metal trim, overdone carbon fiber or dark wood veneer” .... just not enough room in the backseat for people or groceries, anything you buy would have to go on the front passenger foot well which means no passenger, toss it in the backseat & you’ll have to move seat forward to get fallen items from floor. It’s a nice little car, just not a practical little car

How did pay for that one strip of bacon and where from? 😮

Thou art a talented car reviewer, is 2018 the last production year of this bug? U neglected to mention ALL the available trims / versions of this convertible bug & their respective price points & options. Try & work those facts into your video reviews in the future - make it your own - be snarky & be yourself. It's been fun! Good job Sarah! 9/10.

I bought my daughter a 2010 to go to college. My truck was getting 10 mpg. So I found a 2012 2.5 5 SPD. Now I get 30mpg. All the points you said is what I like about the Beetle. I put the wing on mine to make it more manly. 😂😂😂

Hi Sarah love your style

Great review Sarah!

I think that green would go great with black interior and a black top!

I cant resist watching a video hosted by sarah

That Boxster platform idea is legit genius. Give it a race clutch from an older VW model, offer a dune bug trim and roll cage option, dumb down the mechanical design a little for easier repair / servicing, keep the interior super basic but cruise-able, sell it as an entry-level baby racer like Mini used to be, support AWD and turbo modders...aim pricing at the MX-5.

They're getting rid of it?! Damn that sucks always thought it was a cool car, how badly is it selling? Also great vid but wheres dat backseat review?

Please review the honda pilot or the toyota highlander 18

Love that color 😍

Good idea about the new Beetle.

Love the color as well! If the upper trim levels have a better infotainment system, then I would by one. :)

Wait, one strip?

Usually don't care for green cars, but that's a nice color.

Back seat review or no review ! I like your suggestion of building "the next one ?" in the Boxster's RWD platform . . . maybe a derivative of it built to a VERY LOW budget.

Not mentioned here but the infotainment system does have Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It also has proximity sensors and a rear view camera. I own a black hard top 2018 Beetle and I love it. Also I have been saying for a few years that the Beetle is zippy. Love hearing someone else say that.

Love the sense of humour
