About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Represented as the original drivetrain and a California car from new with 85,072 miles. Gorgeous paint and upholstery in the original color. Bright, fresh chrome. Tight fitting sunroof. Highly appealing and impressive, done to high standards without going too far.

Market commentary

Some cars are impossible to walk by, even among the thousands here in Kissimmee and this was one. The color alone was enough to grab attention and enthusiasm was ramped up by the caliber of the restoration and the numerous accessories. It's unusual to see a Beetle bring this much money but this Beetle could have brought even more without being excessive, it's that unusual and good.
