Update on the Beetle?

[@ishaybar-yosef415]

Gracie Poteet You like it?

[@silvergirlmarta8828]

Gracie Poteet you

[@xheatherbeather]

I bought this same model except beige with black interior leather. Drives beautifully. Looks beautiful. People say I look vogue worthy with the top down.

[@alwayspink07]

I'm considering buying a beetle. Would you really recommend it? What do you think are the pros and cons of owning one? Do you think it's better to have the convertible or just the regular one? Sorry for so many questions! Lol.

[@alwayspink07]

+Alexis Valdez thank you Alexis for your advice!!! I have heard similar things! As much as I love it, I don't think it quite fits what I actually need. :)

[@xheatherbeather]

+Lisa R. I'm so sorry. I just read this comment. Yes the convertible top is the best! The only con of this car is the parts and labor on the car is more expensive than most, but honestly you get what you pay for. I have had my car for a little over 6 months put 11000 miles on it and she runs beautifully, still. My mechanic says she looks perfect. Maybe I just got lucky, but this car is hands down the best car I have ever had.

[@alwayspink07]

Heather Foater thanks heather!! I have been searching on and off but haven't found the right one for me so far. I appreciate your honest input though!

[@xheatherbeather]

You're welcome. You will know when you find the right car. I sure did. Best of luck :)

[@superstarbabe87]

[@plazaparkbydee8967]

I am 60 years old and have always wanted a red convertible and I absolutely love it this car is so fun to drive I wish I would have had one when I was a young adult my first car was a 1972 mustang it was an awesome car this one is so fun

[@dave11686]

My sister had a '06 Beetle with the 2.5L 5 cylinder, those are great cars. I went on a long trip up to Michigan with her and that car and it was great.

[@Livelaughshart]

I'm 22 and I'm buying this next week lol THEY'RE SO MUCH CUTER THAN THE NEWER MODELS

[@roryg8704]

My uncle has one up in Sheffield, but it's a 2002 model and we drove it to Heathersage and it was brilliant. i really want one SO BAD!

[@pinkygirlygirl2989]

Tbh i love this car and i look so cool in it with the top down lol

[@saraafrasiabi4473]

My dad wants to buy me one I'm so excited!!!!!

[@dasmuven1911]

The 2.0 SOHC 8V is by far the best Gasoline motor VW has ever made, aside from the old H4

[@freddok2]

Nice car. The engine sound is somewhat familiar (I own a 2012 Jetta SE with the 2.5 that I love) and when my wife learns to drive, she'd like to get a New Beetle similar to this one.

[@ShodyHarajukuBarbie]

Liked immediately when 1:59 👍🏾🤣

[@squirmlygoof]

Hey can you tell me what that song is if you know? I'm been trying to search it up myself but I lost hope lol.

[@sunnyuutsu]

Nice weather today ! You got a nice voice Kyle !

[@Sophora121]

I'm only 14 but i am starting to save up for this car

[@ziyhampton3189]

thenorthernlight did u get it?

[@TheMrDemonized]

[@Me-eb3wv]

[@Money_motivational.]

[@MwesigwaEzra]

You should be 21 by Now, did u get it?

[@alexuin]

That 2.0 engine sounds nice!!

[@MrRichierich1990]

another great video as always!

[@litalover19]

As much as I love the 98-2005 beetles they have way to many problems. I'm happy that 2006-2010 don't have nearly as many issues. I have a 2006 convertiable and a 2008 triple white bug.

[@IKhanNot]

These Volkswagen 4 cylinder powertrains are much smoother than other 4 cylinder powertrains. My Mom's Mazda Protege suffers quite a lot of vibration and sounds coarse.

[@xvrhernandez349]

hey whoa it wasnt my desire, besides the new tucson is real cool looking

[@djkenny1202]

I have a 2000 Cabrio. I really like it.

[@fordescort98]

Man I will agree with you on everything. We have a '98 but unknown to us at the time was that it was in an accident. So we have put way to much time and money into it. And now the transmissions going. Only has 178,000 kms we bought it at 120,000 kms. Too bad but the ride is stiff but rewarding in the bends and the motor has more than enough pep to keep up :) 5*s for you kyle :) I would also own one except it'd be diesel and 5 speed or if I could get the 2.5 i would :) Sweet vid

[@musickangel16]

Yea they do! I have one its awesome :)

[@1964mm]

Just noticed, lol, THE FLOWER'S GONE!!!! XD

[@lexustownsend2062]

I am obsessed lol

[@xvrhernandez349]

my grandmother use to have one of these in manual, it was so fast think it was a 2002, it was cool just hated how small it was in the back, but she traded this in & her 95 cadillac sedan de ville for a 2010 hyundai tucson

[@resentertainment1990]

I had a 2003 and it terrible and I traded it in for an 2008 you would think it was two completely different cars. So glad they decided to change the engine to 2.5

[@eastendbillythekid802]

Nice car man ..

[@michelinman8592]

I liked the 2010 Final Edition that me and my mom test drove. The only two things that I did not like was the stiff suspension, and VERY touchy brakes. Other than that, it was great! :)))

[@elijahleduc8680]

Did he say heated seats?! Where?! XD i have this car and when he said that i was shocked! I don’t think it has them but if it does, how do i use them??

[@prettybaby80]

Elijah LeDuc look under the ac radio part . All the way down. One on each side for passenger and driver. The buttons scroll up and down for intensity

[@sean____2886]

Elijah LeDuc how do you not know your own car???

[@philmzbyphred]

Maybe your car doesn't have it? All I know is that heated seats were optional

[@19gloria56]

ahhhhhh i want this car so bad!!!

[@BritttanyNicolle93]

must you "gun-it" every time you accelerate?? you make it sound as if you are drive a truck??

[@nellegirl6288]

When u go to the car wash does rain get inside the car? I’m thinking about buying a Volkswagen Beetle Convertible

[@universityofwtmp]

Don’t put it through the car wash. Have the body washed by hand.

[@nellegirl6288]

@@universityofwtmp okay thank u

[@americuhh]

i just got a 2000 beetle, my first car

[@phlewis86]

Kyle how about doing a video on the Honda Fit. By the way I really enjoy all of your videos.

[@Lukasdw02]

[@healthman777]

[@litalover19]

@hotnez100 no it comes in a automatic as well.

[@zanjani13]

nioce car i love this car shes nice! 5/5

[@Kakaaa10]

I TRIED ON ETODAY BUT I WASNT KINDA DISSAPOINTED BECAUSE THE STEER WHEEL WASNT SO SMOOTH ACTUALLY ITS WAS KINDA HEAVY , IS IT NORMAL IN ALL BEETLE 2004 CARS ?

[@ladyyuna2000]

A really cute VW Beetle convertible I wanna get one so bad but they costs so much.

[@theprime95]

ive heard this car is mostly meant for girls, im turning 15 should i get this car?

[@JeremyRichey-qm1xd]

imagine if you were in traffic and everybody saw your car. The game of slugbug will rule the street.

[@michelledom9167]

What's that sound when you open the roof? I have problem every time l open the roof, every 2 min sounds an alarm

[@lauren-myshelle5245]

Michelle Lopez when its not latched down

[@JimmyDean404]

any chance for the focus next to it?

[@The8TrackChap]

Do you have test drive videos of any TDI vehicles?

[@rosemaryadams548]

I have a 2004 vwb any good places to get parts for it

[@chorstma44]

Lol. Thanks. That seems kinda weird to have that in a car. I thought it was for that because most of the beetles I have seen have flowers there

[@eoare4]

does it take slot of muscle to open and close the top???

[@Maddehh101]

my friend just got a beetle about a month ago when she got her temps.. its not a convertible and i think its somewhere around the model year 2000.. she let me drive it and i am now considering getting a beetle when i turn 16 in 1 and a half years :)

[@TheCarArchives96]

the transmission on the 1997-2010 Volkswagen New Beetle/ Volkswagen Beetle (Mexico)/ Volkswagen Bjalla (Iceland) Transmission 5-speed manual 6-speed manual 4-speed automatic 6-speed automatic tiptronic

[@chorstma44]

That sounds great for a 2.0. Great video. It must have been cold with the top down. I miss driving witht he windows open so I zipped up my coat and did it anyway. lol. Do you know what that plastic tube looking thing is. Its on the dash right next to the guage cluster and right behind the window wiper controls on the right side of the wheel

[@josephcazzuto7198]

Vase for a flower. I think they all came with one.

[@jaarmen3]

Do they have those in manual shift transmission?

[@erminmujanovic206]

What is that little tube thing by the steering wheel used for?

[@schuylerelaine2191]

Does it have aux

[@philmzbyphred]

No, but the older ones have a cassette player so you can attach an aux cassette adapter. Later models had the aux jack. However, not all models have the cassette player or aux.

[@DJonX7]

By God it's Turbo charged LMAO

[@JimmyDean404]

nevermind I jst saw you did oen. thanks :)

[@techsavvy12]

I actually have to disagree about practically everything about this car. I currently drive a 2005 VW Beetle with the 6-speed automatic , 2.0 liter. I can't find anything good about this car other than that it is small, easy to maneuver and easy to park. The transmission is very jerky, especially when upshifting to 3rd and 5th gear and downshifting to 4th and 3rd gear. The car also eats up gas which it shouldn't because it is supposed to be economical. I don't drive it aggressively and the car also lacks power especially in city driving. It has trouble keeping up with traffic and I have to accelerate the hell out of it which is also why it uses a lot of gas. Unless someone here in the comments is willing to guess why my car is acting like this, I don't like this car at all. I don't like the styling either, but I'm a guy so of course so I wouldn't like the way this car looks, lol.

[@christopherwilliams9418]

"6 speed automatic, 2 liter"

[@TheMrDemonized]

techsavvy12 why did you bought it then? sell and buy other, if you haven't done this already

[@Manors22]

It sounds pretty naff at gear changes

[@MrBolita02]

How do you lock the top down ?

[@user-qk9ty6rj2p]

Fernando Ballesteros t

[@MrBolita02]

M3 ?

[@byourself684]

You hold the button all the way back.

[@christopherwilliams9418]

Do you mean lock the top in place after putting it back up? There's a handle in the middle of the plastic part near the front that you pull down and twist, either locking the top or releasing it.

[@SkywalkerTibor]

@nautbijker not at all :) greetings from hungary :)

[@Poli92ily]

@Sophora121 That's very smart! I wish I'd done that when I was your age! Keep at it! Every dollar counts! Hope you get it ASAP! :]

[@SkywalkerTibor]

@nautbijker 'cause they don't wanna mess around with shifting and actually they cannot drive the manual ones. In general, American drivers are dull and love comfort. They have to be warned to all things to do and not to do in a car (belts, lights etc.) by that annoying buzzers and notice labels.

[@gm1990ss]

the gearing sounds like an old beetle. never driven or riden in any beetle though.

[@raulecalderon]

the only bad thing about vw's is the personal working at the dealership they are very unprofessional and always try to get out over 1000dlls out your wallet just to fix a little problem with the car!

[@Herower]

seems to be that this car is pretty slow...

[@pandamanownes]

me to... : (

[@claribelcenteno817]

yup thats what i need not the ford focus that thing is rough......

The Focus can be cool too! Still, these are great cars. Just be sure to take care of it!
