Over the 41 years that the Volkswagen Beetle was officially imported into the U.S. from Germany, more than 17 million were produced. American automakers went through many major changes in models and styles, while the VW saw very few changes and remained instantly recognizable as its body shape had stayed close to the same as when it was first introduced. As popular as ever, this convertible shows only 43,000 kilometers on the odometer and is likely to see many more roads in its lifetime. It has a fuel-injected 6-cylinder, 4-speed manual transmission, AM/FM radio, and the soft boot has been replaced with new. While the aqua paint does show a few minor defects, it still shows very well. Highlights include like-new quality upholstery, steel wheels, and brilliant trim. Known for iconic looks and longevity, this is an investment you can drive to the bank.
