VW turquoise was my favorite color for the Beetle. Every once in a while I see classic Bug in that color, but classic Bug owners seem to prefer other colors now. My neighborhood hosts one classic Bug that is adorned with a two-tone paint job, what an anathema!! … lol …

My neighbor has a red one, race tuned. I can hear it every time he starts it up. Never seems to leave the driveway.

I watched this a few months ago, definitely entertaining for folks interested in classic Beetles.
