“this ain’t your daddy’s Beetle”!!
From the moment you open the door and are greeted by the Aroma of Fine Leather, to the second you cross the Stainless Steel Door Sills, sit down and are cradled in the Custom Painted Full Leather Recaro Racing Seats, then proceed to wrap your hands around the Thick Matching Leather RUF Steering Wheel and Shifter, you realize “this ain’t your daddy’s Beetle!”
You immediately notice the obvious Attention to Detail. The Fit and Finish and overall Clean OEM styling. The subtle marriage of Form and Function make it clear that this car is truly something unique and quite special.
There is an “underplayed irresistibility” about this car that’s difficult to put into words. The feel of the Billet controls between your fingers suggests quality far beyond what you’d expect.
The sensation of being behind the wheel of a purposeful VW Beetle with the turbo spooling, pushing you into your seat as you accelerate from 70 to 120 MPH in seconds, is something one once could only dream about. It’s now a reality!
