Ok...we need to straighten something out...A New Beetle is NOT a Bug.
When you say Bug referring to a car it invokes visions of an AIR COOLED engine and that familiar chirp from the exhaust. A carb with clothes pins on the fuel line to prevent vapor lock...4 bolts to remove the engine and a seat made of horsehair with the battery located directly under it...and that familiar smell of gas and oil...among other things.
The New Beetle has water in it for crying out loud..A front mounted engine? Heat AND air??
A nice car I'm sure but NOT a Bug.
That is all

If only I had enough spare funds to buy a slightly used helicopter turbine for a project I'm not sure I could finish....wonder if he put a splitter on it to keep the front planted.
