Default VW Delays Shipping of '12 Beetles with Sunroofs....

I saw this coming about 2 months ago when the photos of the Black turbo with the sunroof started popping up. I was thinking "SOMEONE is going to have their sunroof open, then open the hatch, and WHACK, break their sunroof."

Well, apparently it *IS* an issue. So not only are the gauge's being delayed, but now the sunroof is being withheld, possibly until next year.

Someone made an OOPS somewhere.

That's good for me. Gives me time for VW to fix that, and me to win the lottery.
