Talking ~My New 2007 New Beetle~

Well hello there! I have not posted anything in a very long time...I had to take a little hiatus from the ORG for no reason in particular. I am back, loving it, missed everyone, and I have a New Beetle! ~2007 Sunflower Yellow Package 1 New Beetle~

I came home from work on my birthday a couple of weeks ago and my partner took me to the dealership, I picked my new car, and we drove away. Let me tell you; this was one of the hardest decisions I have ever made. I originally wanted Harvest Moon or Laser Blue, but after seeing this shade of yellow, I just fell in love! Best of all though, I had no idea that this was coming. I believe it is safe to say that this is the best birthday gift I have ever received!

Without further ado, here he is (he told me that he would like to be a he for the most part; sometimes he may do drag and prefer to be called a she). I plan to keep the mods to a minimal for right now...I am more focused on the essentials like getting the windows tinted, front bra, etc.

Hope you enjoy; we certainly are!

No name as of yet...

We were driving yesterday and saw a cloud that looked similar to our Beetle (will post pictures of it later), so he is thinking on whether he likes the name Cloud or not.

Thank you! It was very hard for me to choose this color...I love it, but I really had my heart set on a Harvest Moon. After seeing this though, all of the other colors seemed so boring!

That would not be a very fair trade on your part...you have put a lot of work into your New Beetle. All I have done for mine is drive it.

Well, eventually, a trip to California has to be in the makings. I am heading down to San Diego for a visit with some friends. I am flying though, so no New Beetle'age. Some day!
