To neilmcg,
Well said.
The '99 MSRP's are out; GL $15 900
GLS $16 850
TDI GLS $17 900
NO pricing for the GLS 1.8T or GLX 1.8T
My source is VOA. They released the prices yesterday. There are quite a few nice changes to the '99 . Of interset to the Edmund's long term test NB crew will be the bigger cup holders!
There is a real nice NB site. Check out www.air.on.ca Tons of info. And friendly discussion. Pictures of the '99 too!!!

Pam,
I've had my black bug for two months, but that was the first time I actually caught Asian tourists taking pictures with it.
Every morning I drive by an elementary school and the kids shout, "Punch Bug!" to one another. Kids have no problem smiling at something they think is neat.
Adults, however, pretend not to smile. :O)

Slchan,
Maybe I'm not up with the times... but what does "punch bug" mean?

Perhaps it reminds them of an insect they found floating in a pitcher of CoolAid (tm).

Neilmcg has an overactive imagination.

I still haven't seen any green New Beetles. Anyone have any word on them?

To NEILMCG
I agree with you. There's something fishy about Isellhondas and Pam2's repeated negative postings on this discussion board.

Well, so far I've made about $22,000 from being paid to make negative posts about New Beetles.
I split this money with Isellhondas to make up for his loss of Honda sales.

and I know pam2 had a winkie at the end of that note. 
Since we are at 380 notes, which would be a bit daunting to anyone joining us now, I'm going to freeze this discussion and begin anew.
