lol by the time she gets driving, sounds like these might be classics Or...you could always get one now...and help her work on it, so when she's of driving age, it'll already be hers!

I knew before 1998 I wanted a Beetle, but when the New Beetle came out...yeah, it was all I could think about. And I knew, sometime in my life, I would own a NB. I knew it wouldn't be my FIRST car, but I would own one....now look at me! I have the Diesel Beetle of my dreams!

x2.
Ten years after they unveiled the NB!

Good choice over the 'stang, IMHO.
I used to work for Ford, but I just won't own a new one.
Muscle car era only for me.
