Volkswagon ending New Beetle production
Ending the string of “New” cars with old names;Dodge Charger, Ford Mustang, New Beetle, the new Beetle is ending production this year. I personally can’t stand this glut of redesigning the style of the old car with newer lines and luxuries. 
Just call the car another name, please! Call these new cars by a new name, because in all honesty, performance and lovability – no one is passionate abut their NEW Charger, their NEW Mustang, or their New Beetle. The original cars were the best, and the original names carried a mystique and a lifestyle. To label these newer cars as being close to the same – heresy!
Anyway, here is the link – if you like the “New Beetle” Oh, and by the way, Volkswagen plans on replacing the New Beetle with something “beetleish.” I am curious about this one. After the introductions of the Aos and the CC, I have to admit that I am really curious to see the next step.

Hey, I fully agree, “Bring Back the Thing!”
Just don’t make a crappy car and call it a Thing like they did the “new” Beetle.
