1979 Volkswagen VW Karmann Limited Edition "Triple White" Super Beetle

Here is your chance to purchase a truly Classic and Rare Volkwagen that is currently bringing in prices from $23,500 to $60,000 for similar vehicles. This VW is a Karmann Limited Edition Super Beetle in "Triple White" 

Here's a sneak peek: 

  • 1979 Volkswagen VW Karmann Triple White Limited Edition Super Beetle Convertible with only 70,000 Original Miles in Minty Condition. All Original in White/White Interior and White Convertible top. The Super Beetle was fuel injected with glass window and defroster built into the Glass on the convertible top

    The Super Beetle was one of the only choices for those who wanted the open-air experience. Volkswagen surprised everyone in 1979 when the convertible returned for yet another year. The new federal safety and pollution guidelines had been delayed and that allowed the Beetle to pay North America its final visit. The very last one page brochure for the Super Beetle simply stated, "After 29 years, millions of Beetles, and countless improvements, the 1979 Convertible is still a very sensible way to flip your lid." All of the options that were on the limited edition Beetle were now standard equipment. The Super Beetle was now the only four-seat convertible for sale in the USA, and at $6,495.00 was still a very good deal. Volkswagen convertibles assembled at the Karmann plant 40 years prior to this date that were also painted black so the "Triple White" was very special. The news started to spread that this was finally the last year of production for the Beetle convertible. This created a huge backlog of orders at the Karmann plant. Production that was supposed to end July 31st 1979 was kept up until January 1980 to fill the thousands of orders that poured in from around the world. But on that fateful day (January 10, 1980), the last Super Beetle, a triple-white convertible, rolled off the production line and into history forever. This car can be seen today on display in the Karmann museum in Onasbrück Germany.
