In the mid-1970s, Volkswagen was eager to keep the Beetle fresh and appealing to buyers in North America. While the car's basic design had remained largely unchanged for decades, VW introduced a series of special edition models to capture attention and give enthusiasts something unique. One of the rarest and most eye-catching of these was the La Grande Bug, produced for the 1975 model year.

The Orleans Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas pulsed with the unmistakable rumble of air-cooled engines October 2nd to October 04th 2025. Now in its sixth year, One Crazy Weekend, the premier VW gathering organized by Let's Talk Dubs and The Wagen, delivered three days of sun-soaked fun, fierce competition, and cross-country camaraderie. With just under 400 Vintage Volkswagens rolling onto the property under flawless 80-degree skies, the event solidified its status as a must-attend pilgrimage for VDub enthusiasts worldwide.
