You'll Like This Car If...
If you’re attracted to the striking shape – as we certainly are – you can’t help but like the 2012 VW Beetle. Inside and out, it’s a constant reminder that you’re making an unmistakable style statement.
You May Not Like This Car If...
If your goal is to have an economical 2-door with plenty of room for four occupants and all their stuff, there are better choices than the 2012 Beetle. The back seat is a little cramped, the low roof line detracts from interior room, the sleek shape cuts into trunk capacity, and there are certainly less-expensive alternatives.
