2012 Volkswagen Beetle

I gotta say - not bad at all. Especially if ordered with 2.0L turbo engine from GTI.

I have to say that it looks a LOT better than the previous gen. Much sleeker. Almost -- dare I say -- Porsche-like?

NOT A BEETLE.

Beetles are not supposed to have a long, flat hood.

I disapprove wholeheartedly.

However, it doesn't matter. I won't ever buy one anyway, so overall: Whatevs.

Don't be fooled people... This is chopped bunch of mess typical of speculative publications that like to make you think they snapped a real photo. Nothing about this is real.
