Default Queen Bee - 2006 Gecko Green TDi Package2

Hi everyone,


This is Queen Bee. She is my 2006 Gecko Green TDi. Package 2, DSG, Black Interior, Rain Sensing Wipers, Auto-Dimming Rearview Mirror etc...

I bought her March 7th, 2006 in Houston Texas. Drove her home that night towards Vancouver Washington...what a trip!

This photo is my FAVORITE. It was taken before I hit El Paso. A beautiful day, 60 something degrees, and what scenery. I didnt have my real digital camera at the time, so this one is taken with my phone. Still sexah though!


I LOVE not having a stupid front plate...soon though I will have to get something or ill get a ticket I'm sure...





So HOT! (Photo taken next to dnyed)



Even though these are fairly recent photos, I'll have to take some more because I now have my windows tinted (20%) and it makes the car look THAT much better.

No mods are in mind except a clear bra in the front by 3M, one of those VW exhaust tips, and then at 10k I'll start running B20 or so, and after the warrenty expires I would like to try converting to 100% biodiesel and perhaps running on mostly veggie oil.
Oh I would like to get it chipped for a little more HP and torque.

Hope you like her! I'm so in love!~~

Not just an auto...but the DSG.

And those wheels are one of my favorite things. I get compliments on those more than the car. Even my mom likes em..and if you knew her, you would know that a compliment on a car is few and far between

It is supposed to be sunny tomorrow. If i have a chance, ill snap a few pics!

Nice bug. Now take a pic of your pug in a bug. She looks a little spoiled. How old is she?

Hehe...a "little" spoiled. That hootie girl gets everything she wants. She is VERY spoiled (momma today just bought her a mink blanket for her bed...i mean seriously...a furry blanket that is soft? just to get more fur on it?
She is 15 years young, has cancer, and is the last of our three pugs we had.
Funny you meantion pug in a bug...My mom just ordered personalized plates for the 02 bug "PUGNBUG". Hehe.

Thanks for the comments on the beetle, and the doggie too. I love them both very very much!

You guys like the tint?
