D2Beetle 2K Yellow GLS Turbo NB

[D2Beetle]

Well here are the pics of my wife’s' 2000 GLS NB Turbo; it is our second New Beetle.

I would have had these posted when I posted mine, however the wife’s involuntary desire to go deer hunting down the street prevented it.

Here is the thread for replacing the lower grill and passenger fog light; I choose not to replace the hood at this time as it was not in my budget.

And the remaining NB family can be found here...

... my First - Valdez
... my Third - HiLiter
... my Fourth - Cowboy

Nice Beetle. Sorry about that deer. I can't imagine how scary that would be; no deer around here!

I'm curious about your armrest. Do you have on because it is a Turbo? I thought they didn't start putting them in until late 99/2000. My 99 does not have one.

Well when you live in rural america deer strikes are common unfortunaetly.

We purchased this NB used so I'm not certain when or what package level the armrest became standard equipment.

I would have preferred that it not have an armrest as I keep hitting (regardless of it being up or down) it with my elbow everytime I shift into even numbered gears.

That not just "yellow", it "Double Yellow!!! Excellent! And, I spy Double Dubness, no?

Good luck with the repairs. Any new news about it?

I'm not certain if other NB enthusiasts have noticed; the kids here pointed it out, so now I call it "School Bus Yellow". You guessed it, its the same color yellow as our school buses.
