That looks like my first beautiful Turbo S, Jewel. Oh, how I loved her. :eek:

I did not know that your Sport has totalled! So sorry.:(

But, you are OK, and now you have a Turbo S! :)

Parts I need to get from "Bailey" before I sign off on it.

Take 5 Rims if front left is still good. State Farm said I could swap.
Euro Light switch
Phatnoise - Had it in less than 4 days.

Nice!!! I'm sorry about your old ride, but this new turboS is NICE!!!!!!! Did you get your stuff from your old nb yet?

Not yet I hope to get in done on Monday. I would really like to have the Take 5's over the Delta's that are on it.

Still have the one you made, my wife loves that you do this.

At least I got to drive Bailey one last time, even it was only 1/4 mile to Discount Tire.
Sharona looks good with the Take 5's. Why didn't VW use them on the S?

Car wash took off the front plate revealing no holder and holes also it was hiding that slight crack in the center grill.
Need to fix that Fog cracked mount. Any suggestions?

Went to Aurburn VW tonight to pick up some parts I had on order. Well they misordered the corner light and got amber instead of red. I asked the guy if he had a red light from a normal bug, he went and got it and it looked identical. We went out to the car and it poped in with no problems. Funny the Turbo S part number was $43 and the normal beetle part number was $20. So what else is over priced that way?

Sorry to see what happened to your old Bug? Did they total it?

Take 5's look good on the S... PG Turbo S's rock.
BTW I got a extra front grille for the front and fogs kicking around if you need one.

To chip or not to chip.

I chipped my old Beetle for $499 going from 150hp to 200hp+/- was a good deal. Didn't mind the that my MPG was in the low 20's. Now I have a "S" that is 180hp, spending another $499 doesn't seem that good of a deal now. My MPG is in the Mid to high 20's (25-28). Do you think I would notice any real difference on the S?
