Little surprise here, but it’s always nice to hear VW get a shout out.
The Auto Blog posted a list of the most popular cars for men and women, via Forbes and KBB. The two-door New Beetle made the list for women. But c’mon guys! Where’s the GTI for the fellas? Guess it’s not quite there yet….

Where you at Beckers? Thugbug represent! hahah
Well… it’s definitely not a dude car, that’s for sure. I heart my niche market buggy.
I once saw this totally thugged out dude, with cornrows, a little bling, smoking, rollin in a red Nube with the total gangsta lean on the seat with one hand on the wheel. He definitely didn’t fit the target market for the car, but there was some serious comedic value there.
Hi there
I enjoyed looking at the content of your site. If you get a chance please come and have a look at my blog at http://kellybluebookplanet.blogspot.com.
Good deal Adam. Not many Blue Book blogs(say that 3 times fast) out there - keep up the great work!
I’m thinking of becoming “bugged” and will have to settle for previously owned, so is there anything that is a problem that I should be aware of? Also, gas vs. diesel? And what is the real mpg expectation and longevity of these little jewels? Not that I don’t trust that car salesman….
I’m not aware of any issues and I don’t have any exact figures, but I’d say go for the diesel. I’m kickin’ myself for not holding out for a TDI. I’ve never heard any complaint from a Beetle owner, let alone one with a diesel.
