hmmmm... nah. it looks much too... normal.
though im sure it would really impress the crap out of those little jap-car drivers!
in the beginning, the universe was created.
this made alot of people very angry and is widely regarded as a bad move.

i think i'm in love...
holy carp!
she's *snif* beautiful!!
love the excessive chrome, and the fact that it has a VW symbol on the front, and the lines, and the style, and the 19" wheels, and the stuff and
things. love to have a drive. funny feeling it's not in my price range, but 20 years from now i hope to own a beaten up second hand one, and
paint red flames up the bonnet against a black/purple pearl background....
*dreams*
and then i'll train my flying pigs to drive it....

I think it looks ok,
You must admit VW gave sticking to the original design, a fair go.
but after 50 years they are moving on,
But I tell you what, those 19 inch rims would look very cool on my splitty.
