If Volkswagen was to bring the sporster to America would you trade in your New Beetle to have one? I must be a bug junkie because I would pay off my bug wait untill somebody was tired of their new sporster and buy it right...used. That is the best solution I can come up with.

Depends on price when th ePeugeot 307 cc came out I was so sure to buy it, but at 34 000 dollars for the car I just passed, if it had been at 24 to 27K I would have bought it...

Same goes for the new cars from VW. the Jetta GLI costs 30100 USD$ OUCH !!! plus insurance and taxes....I hope this Roadter is keptt below 26K and it will be a hit

There's no apostrophe before an 's' when you're talking about the plural version of a word. "I took some neat photo's!" is NOT correct.

Looks nice, but I dunno if it's me. I'd have to test it out, and I'd trade the BUICK ; not the bug.

I'm an oddball too. Doesn't do much for me. Looks like just another car. I'm keeping the bug!

Nope. I'm keeping Buttercup. She would go Fatal Attraction on me if I dumped her for it . BUT i wouldn't mind adding it to my stable of cars. It would be cool to put the Karman Ghia moniker on that car.

It seems that VW is really cutting up their Passat to make all sorts of concept cars. Personally, I think they're lineup is just right for their quirky audience. But, I think a spruced up Corrado might hit a sweetspot with a lot of folks.

Default sorry, but no

We got the TDI because they go a long way on a tank and because they are feel-good cars. This thing has a completely different affect and it probably only goes half as far on a gallon as the TdI.

The TDI is sporty enough for me, I like going 600 miles on a tank and the unique look fits my wish for something a little different than the average. Sorry, no sale.

Me too. I would never trade a Bug in, not even for a fancy sportscar. I also only like Bugs from the VW line.
