Vehicle 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 in fact, a manual transmission model like this may get
the number down to only one of 500 ever! That's the kind of
rareness we're all looking for, and this one offers it on a bold
coupe that's loaded with the best features.
Snap Orange is great to have on a special edition known for its
color. There's a bold style that makes it look like Herbie ate a
habanero. And even the special VW Take 5 wheels have color-matched
inserts bolted into the alloys for a truly distinct style. This
looks to be largely the factory paint application, and it shows off
well-fitting sheetmetal, so this has the look of a well-respected
car. In fact, this one is coming from a collector who amassed the
five Color Concepts models and kept them all for a few years. So
while you will find signs of use that reflect this car's actual
mileage, you can also see this is a limited edition that is worthy
of appreciating.
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 orange also on the door panels,
rear side panels, grab handle, and center armrest. And the orange
inserts in the leatherette seats and contrast stitching really sets
the rare Color Concept cars apart from the rest. Some of the
upholstery is reflective of the mileage, but since this one was
part of the collection for its completeness, it remains looking
impressive today. 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 the factory Monsoon
AM/FM/cassette stereo. 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!!!
