2012 Volkswagen Beetle User Reviews

Purchased As Used

Best car ever I like my car so much and it is so fast and beautiful

Pros

Handling, quiet cabin, great equipment

Cons

Tight back seat

Purchased As New

This is a great small car with excellent features, good ride, unique looks and good mpg. Its not a sports car its just a fun small coupe. The 2.5 is plenty of power for the relatively light weight. Very comfortable interior that rides like a larger car. I am surprised at how quiet it is. If you want a unique ride that doesn't look like every other econobox on the street and don't want to drive a clown car from Smart or Fiat, take a look at the Beetle....read morehide

You can't compare a German car to others, even when it comes to vw there is a big difference. Go for a ride in any other car that is small and light and when you get behide the wheel of a Beatle you can feel the quality. Yes it cost 3 to 4 thousand more buy if you can't see and feel the difference than you belong in a Hyundai. For all you others that know the difference go for a great ride in a VW....read morehide

The new beetle is nothing like the old one. It's still very well designed but quality and drive are another level.

i test drove one and loved it it had plenty of power. it can even make a really tight u turn you can be in your drive way and possibly make it depending on your drive way. the tip tronic transmission shifts just like a stick shift this car is solid the speakers even change color and they are bose speakers its equipped in the base model the only reason i don't have one is because I'm saving to pay one off cash...read morehide

I got mine three weeks ago from a dealership in northern NJ. 2.5L, Reflex Silver w/ black interiors, Sound and Nav. It looks great and handles like you expect a German car to do. Point it in one direction and it just go. Decent power for a commuter car. The stereo is probably the best I've heard on a car. It's that good. Plus it has all the extra features like heated seats, keyless entry and start, and a solid Nav system. The only complains I have is that the headlights are not automatic and that the 2.5L does not have the rear spoiler. Other than that, I'm very happy with my purchase....read morehide

I own 2008 vw passat and thats my 3rd in past 6 years. i had 98, 03 and now 08. awsome cars and tough for beating up :). turbo engines have a lot of power that you can actually feel it but yet great highway fuel economy. Most often people bitch about costs of repairs, well my adwice to every car ovnet out there, learn to do small repairs and simple maintenance yourself and avoid going to dealerships for bigger repairs, it will probably save you 80% of wasted money. I wish i didnt get my passat right before finding out about new beatle :(. i loved old school beatle and this one is so much closer to that look :) I LOVE IT!...read morehide
