Volkswoman's
sister was a woman who didn't care for the
Volkswagen Beetle. "I said I had to see this with my own
eyes to believe it. She said it'd never happen. I said Volkswagens
would win her over eventually; she said our beloved little car
couldn't hold a candle to anything she was used to driving. She
repeated it would never happen. But it has: my older sister, the
one who 'hates' Volkswagens, has been bitten by the Beetle-Loving
Bug...."

The Spotlight
at SuperBeetles.com is yet another blue 1972 Super Beetle. "I'm
from British Columbia, Canada and ever since I was a teenager
I have loved Beetles. This passion was started in a different
way than you may think, even though my dad owned a 1967 Beetle,
my obsession started with the Love Bug. My inspiration came from
the first movie " Herbie the Love Bug". The first Beetle
I started with was a 1974 Super Beetle with a rusty-patched floor
with an engine that wouldn't idle to save its life. The brakes
didn't work no matter how hard you pressed, a piece of information
that I learned when I rolled my VW off the trailer we picked it
up with onto the driveway..."
