I would consider this bug a very nice weekend car. Not a daily driver nor a show car. Looks great, and turns heads all the time. Starts right up and very reliable. I've driven it in on several two hour stretches and cruised steady at 60mph with no problem. Turns heads!

Matching Numbers Vehicle!

Checked the stampings on body, pan, engine, and title, all from September 1963. According to the title this vehicle was first sold in 1963. Samba.com designates all stampings from exact month and year. Chassis number: 5889351, Engine number: 8557720, Body number: 5889351, Title VIN: 5889351.

Original Sunroof!

Sunroof opens and closes with no problem

New Interior!

All seats and door panels are new and look great.

All glass is in good condition. Windows work good.

All weather seals are in good condition.

Lights work good.

Headlight bezels show signs of aging.

I bought this car only a few months age with the intention of giving it to my son as a birthday gift, however after several conversations with him I realized that it was not something he desires. I have been driving it around town and have enjoyed it, but i have too many other cars, and need to sell this one. It would make the perfect christmas gift.

I believe the original color of the vehicle was blue, I can tell in the sunroof frame that it was a different color. Paint looks good but it is not perfect, I have found a few imperfections here and there. However it looks good.

The chrome on a couple of wheels has some chrome chipping.

The front inner fenders show signs of prior accident. I have no knowledge of the accident but I can tell that it has been repaired.

There is presently no stereo in it, but upon completion of this sell a stereo with a classic look will be installed.

I have in my possession a clean California title.

Sale of this vehicle is as is with no implied warranties. I've described this vehicle to the best of my abilities, I am no expert or a dealer. Personal inspections are advised and can be made via appointment. Buyer is responsible for a $500.00 deposit within 24 hours of sale completion.

If you win this auction make sure you pay your deposit within 24 hours and full price within 72 hours. If you win and do not pay I will give you negative feedback.

This is good looking car that you can cruise and enjoy without the price of a fully restored bug.

Good Luck and Happy Bidding!

Hyundai tops VW and Buick in China, survey says

Wed, Apr 15 2015

You may be aware of the long-time competition in China between Volkswagen and Buick, but another brand apparently should be in that conversation too: Hyundai. In a recently published annual consumer survey, the Korean company actually took the top spot to beat out its German and American rivals in second and third, respectively. The results were part of the China Brand Power Index that interviewed 11,500 people around the nation and was paid for by the country's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. While Hyundai proved popular with voters, its sales haven't necessarily shown that yet. According to Bloomberg, the brand had falling numbers in China for the first quarter of the year. Even Ford outsold the South Korean automaker in the same period, despite scoring lower on the survey. Meanwhile, Audi ranked as the populace's favorite luxury brand, which is hardly a surprise given the Four Rings' strong sales in China. In January alone the automaker saw a 15-percent boost in volume there. Parent company VW's strong performance was somewhat more surprising, though. State media severely criticized the German automaker in March, and customers protested last year for the allegedly poor handling of a recall.

Lexus tops JD Power Vehicle Dependability Study again, Buick bests Toyota

Wed, Feb 25 2015

It shouldn't surprise anyone, but Lexus has once again taken the top spot in JD Power's Vehicle Dependability Study. That'd be the Japanese luxury brand's fourth straight year at the top of table. The big news, though, is the rise of Buick. General Motor's near-premium brand beat out Toyota to take second place, with 110 problems per 100 vehicles compared to Toyota's 111 problems. Lexus owners only reported 89 problems per 100 vehicles. Besides Buick's three-position jump, Scion enjoyed a major improvement, jumping 13 positions from 2014. Ram and Mitsubishi made big gains, as well, moving up 11 and 10 positions, respectively. In terms of individual segments, GM and Toyota both excelled, taking home seven segment awards each. The study wasn't good news for all involved, though. A number of popular automakers finished below the industry average of 147 problems per 100 vehicles, including Subaru, (157PP100), Volkswagen (165PP100), Ford/Hyundai (188PP100 each) and Mini (193PP100). The biggest losers (by a tremendous margin, we might add) were Land Rover and Fiat, recording 258 and 273 problems per 100 vehicles. The next closest brand was Jeep, with 197PP100. While the Vehicle Dependability Study uses the same measurement system as the Initial Quality Survey, the two metrics analyze very different things. The VDS looks at problems experienced by original owners of model year 2012 vehicles over the past 12 months, while the oft-quoted IQS focuses on problems in the first 90 days of new-vehicle ownership. Like the IQS, though, the VDS has a rather broad definition of what a problem is. Because of that, a low score from JD Power is no guarantee of extreme unreliability, so much as just poor design. In this most recent study, the two most reported problems focused on Bluetooth connectivity and the voice-command systems. The former leaves plenty of room for user error due to poor design (particularly true of the Bluetooth systems on the low-scoring Fords, Volkswagens and Subarus), while the second is something JD Power has already confirmed as being universally terrible. That makes means that while these studies are important, they shouldn't be taken as gospel when it comes to automotive reliability.
