If you look at the 0-60 times on the VW website, you will see that the 2.0 manual is actually faster the equivalent turbo diesel counterpart. The turbo 1.8 will be faster though. Just FYI!!
 
I have a Jetta with 2.0 and, yes it could be faster, but overall I have never had trouble merging with traffic.

Information from VWOA re: driver +passenger windows by newbeetleconv

Hey Folks- I heard from VWOA today regarding my non-working driver side window. Seems that there are many of you experiencing the same problem. I was told that they would be having all those motors and levers fixed by January and and tops that are damaged due to the window sticking under the top would also have a full, free replacement top in January. I was told to contact my Service Manager at Prestige Imports and he confirmed all of it. Just passing it along.

jennifer...cyber green by vwmanjimb

The Beetle Conv. will be avialable in the Cyber Green. It is the same color as the Beetle Coupe. As far as the top and interior is concerned. You can get beige interior with beige or black top. The beige top might be hard to find because they are limiting the beige top in production. I have not seen a beige top yet. I have had a couple black tops in and they sold real fast.

A/C problem by jed1894

New Beetle owner here (just 339 miles). After driving home, I discovered the A/C was not working. It comes on, lights up, and blows,... the compressor even sounds like it's kicking in, but no cold air.
 
I'm trying to save about 2 hours driving time back to the dealer....any ideas on what it could be?
 
thanks... JED, 03 TDI Beetle

Hi jed1894. I'd like to suggest that you post your problem in our Air Conditioner Problems--All Cars discussion. It resides on our Maintenance & Repair board, and you might get more feedback there.

I stand corrected...You CANNOT have a beige top with cyber green. Is only available on black and blue. My fault...sorry.
