Just thought I'd post a little pic of my 1970 diamond blue autostick and my 2014 denim blue new beetle...nice contrast, no?

Thanks! I've had a Honda as a daily driver for years but since the new new Beetle came onto the scene I've been thinking why not have a matching set!

had some fun today out in the (finally) decent weather...

(check out the reflection of the 1970 in the wheel of the 2014...it looks like the 1970 has a 20" VW wheel!)
