2008 | 2dr Convertible 150-horsepower 2.5L I5 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Excellent and smooth Tiptronic 6 speed automatic transmission. Like that you have a "sport" mode, which holds the transmission shift point, and you also have the "manual" shifting mode, which is great when driving the back country roads. see full Volkswagen New Beetle review |
