I saw one at my dealer in April. I was talking to the service advisor about racing on the AutoBahn and I looked outside and there it was. He said, "you'd better go outside to get a better look at it. Those windows are tinted." (the building windows) I didn't need to be told again! The tape hadn't been completely removed yet. Nice Beetle!

I don't have access to any brochures on this edition. A friend actually owns the car. I'm not even close to a dealership. Sorry - I won't be able to help you.

Can anyone else monitoring this thread have access to any brochures for this org member that can send something to them?

Local dealer has one. Wasn't overly impressed with it. It's okay, nothing really exciting.

I saw one when driving by the dealership today. Might have to look at it when I take the pics of Heidi in to get her appraised.

I called my dealer and they don't have any brochures for that specific color. I'll check again when I take Daisy for her oil change in a month or so.

Anything for another Beetler. The salesman will be disappointed when I tell him it's for a friend, not me.

There's one listed on my dealership's web site, but they haven't received it yet. I'm hoping it doesn't disappear off the lot the second they unload it! I want to see..... touchy hands!

Shiny..... pretty...... must take pictures......

I finally saw two of them at my dealer this past Sunday.
My wife said "Is that silver?", I got closer and noticed it was the Special Edition. It looks nice up close. The offices were closed, so I didn't see about a brochure.
You can, however download a two page pdf of Specs from the US VW site...special edition blush

I visited one on Saturday night. When I say I visited, I mean... I was at a GTG with my local Volkswagen friends, and there was a VW stealership right across the street. At one point, I looked up and saw it. Of course, I was the only one there with a NB so, nobody quite understood why I started flipping out.
I eventuality mosied across the street and was peeking in the windows when .. all of a sudden the door locks popped up, and the lights flashed. Some dork sales guy was trying to sell it to me. I thought... aw what the hell, and sat down in it.
So, So pretty. The sales guy offered to sell it to me for a mere 25k. Which was about $3,500 less than MSRP. But, who pays that anyway? I said thanks, but no thanks. Ya know the red interior is really just not my thing. LOVE the car, but I am not sure I would buy one.

I actually just bought one and she's lovely! I didn't go in with the intentions of purchasing the Blush, but fell in love with the red leather.

It really IS a VERY pretty car. I LOVE the exterior color a lot. I think with the interior you either LOVE it, or you don't. It was just made for you then, because YOU do.
That is exactly how the New Beetle works. They are ALL different, and everyone has their own take on what they should or shouldn't look like. I'm glad you like it. I'm sure you will make it your own.

Congrats on the pretty new car. I hope you continue to LOVE it. I am SURE it will LOVE you back. Enjoy!

Oh, AND welcome to our site.

Thanks for the welcome I'm very happy with her so far. She certainly gets a lot of attention from people.
