Market commentary
There is a rationale for preserving old cars, even those that dont meet modern safety or emissions requirements but there is none, nor any justification, for buying a new non complying Beetle. The buyer of this car will have cause to regret the airbagless, side incursion barrierless, no rollover protection purchase if his family is on the receiving end of an Excursion. An inexcusable transaction.
