You ARE close!! LOL

The only thing you missed was the year, she's a 2004!! (how did you get so close on the year??)

She's only got 40,000, tan cloth interior (still not sure I love that aspect), but for the low milage I sacrificed finding one with leather interior

Thanks for the welcome everyone

The color, and the mirror blinkers, were the clue for me. We had your cars almost-twin, ours was a TDI with the black leather interior. I Love New Beetles, and can usually get close on years, colors, and things like that. Pathetic, huh?
