It's cool, unlike the "new" beetle designed as fashion accessory.

Funny, I was thinking the exact same thing!
So, I'll give it a cool, though it's not a very convincing cool.

There is usually a reason a car lasts a long time  although myself i'm not keen on them they are still more unique than most of the boring boxes around today. Thats why i'm liking citroens design lately, C6 is a beauty but totally different to the accepted executive car, nice design endures and you don't blend in with all the other bores who consider boring practicalites. Just like Alfa owners eh dan

this is one of a few cars I completely dislike (probably even hate?). Its ugly, slow, and designed for Hitler. (by Porsche, no less, and I'm not a fan of his other cars either).

Cool because it's a legend and icon.
The car is pure crap and it was sold here in mexico until a couple of years ago.
