Some think that if your beetle has a padded dash, it's an engine donor. Some think that if it has push button door handles, it's a boat anchor.

A couple of other pics showed up on the abortions forum last summer. Based on the other junk around it it's probably in Brazil.

Subaru power would be way, way better. Double the HP, actual heat, easy parts availability, and long term reliability.

It is all about practicality, right?

Unpopular opinion. I'm getting real tired of the photoshop/AI generated pictures. Maybe it's because I'm old.
