Default Spotted a New Beetle?

have you seen a nice beetle pass by, one was parked at the grocery store, your neighbour has one, and you took a picture, please post it here

It's always nice to see all kinds of New Beetles in their natural habitat

I'll start....

What do you call this color? I like it! I've never seen it before!

And someone please tell this doofus his trunk emblem is up! I hate that!!


So this is probably a lame question, but all of the Euro NB's come with the Euro emblem right? Why do you get em and not us? And I love the back ends on the Euro NB's... without the dumb little side markers. Especially on the new new ones!

People are going to think you're a spy Tommy!!

A. Canyon Red

B. It was a woman, and I told her at the next lights when I stopped next to her

C. Yes, the emblems in Europe for the New Beetle <2006 is blue/white. Very strange, as we all want the black/white ones you in the States have, and vice versa

D. I am actually

Damn, Tommy! That's a lot of pictures! Sure you don't need both hand on the wheel?

Awesome posts as always, my friend.

You've got quite the collection of NB pics! I don't typically take pictures of the Beetles I see, but when I visiting a friend in Tucson, I saw a very unique bug that I just needed to take a snapshot of!

Me gusta Canyon Red.

I actually like my black emblems but I may get the Euro ones one day. I wish I could shave off my dumb little side marker lights though to make them look like your's. I hate those dumb things!!

thanks for sharing all those wonderful photos!

when you first used the phrase "natural habitat" when refering to a nb, my first thought was that i generally don't take pictures when my car is at the service department.

Wow, Tommy! Do you realize that's more New Beetles that I will see in a year were I live?

Oh yes! I love that Canyon Red. I think that is one of the best colors I have seen yet!
