2002 Volkswagen New Beetle GLS Turbo

Description

It's time you discovered a modern classic with serious rarity. This 2002 Volkswagen New Beetle GLS Turbo is a Color Concepts special edition. These are rumored to be as rare as only 2,000 for each color, and so someday soon we may talk about it in the same kind of rareness as Hemi muscle cars. And this distinct-looking coupe also is loaded with all the best modern features. So that makes for a car with a true pedigree and everyday appeal.

If you're going to drive a special edition that you want to talk about, why not start with one of the boldest colors you could ever put on a Bug? This is a factory Double Yellow Beetle that has the kind of glossy and vibrant finish that you'll swear it almost glows in the dark. Another part of the attraction is the special Take 5 wheels that have color-matched inserts bolted into the 17-inch alloys. The car's odometer reflects its full actual mileage. So while this one has seen some time on the road, it also has been appreciated correctly. It's coming from a collector who amassed the five Color Concepts models and kept them all for a few years. And this one has everything from the clean body lines to the darkly tinted windows to show off a sporty style that gives it plenty of appeal.

The interior really shows off how the Color Concept cars earn their name. Every New Beetle came with door tops that were color-matched to the outside. But these special editions make it a far more thoughtful package with a matching yellow also on the door panels, rear side panels, grab handle, center armrest, and carpet piping. And the yellow inserts in the leatherette seats and contrast stitching really sets the rare Color Concept cars apart from the rest. The overall condition is reflective of the mileage, but there's an underlying attractiveness to a full yellow and black two-tone that will always make this one extra desirable. Plus, this coupe is loaded with all the best features, including power windows, power locks, an alarm, tilt/telescopic steering column, power steering, electric rear defogger, cruise control, heated seats, and an upgraded AM/FM/CD stereo with USB and Bluetooth. You even have the best in safety with dual front airbags, side airbags, and anti-lock brakes. And with cold-blowing air conditioning and a power sunroof, you can really understand how this is a breezy, fun, and comfortable collectible.

The engine of choice in these earlier New Beetles was the turbocharged 1.8-liter fuel-injected motor. They were the most powerful offered of their time, and the peppy turbo nature just goes well with the Beetle's style. This fires up readily and runs smoothly, like a modern car should. But more than just practical, a car with a five-speed manual transmission, nimble handling, and four-wheel power disc brakes is going to happily remind you that the Germans engineer enthusiast cars.

Complete with the owner's manual, this is the cool modern classic that gives you a terrific balance of true rarity, a bold color, and a package that fits into your daily routine. Call today!!!
