So, which one's cuter? Beetle or Mini Cooper? Mini Cooper JCW review coming up on Thursday!
Mini Cooper!
I would go for mini, but is not it more expensive?
but is it cuter
Mini Cooper by far!
TheStraightPipes I would totally take a mini
What an earth-shattering visor test...
Would be funny if they ripped a visor off by accident on one of these.
Your dream came true. Watch our gti review
A rear engine rear wheel drive Beetle is called a Porsche 911
+Sabri Sellaouti Hahah yeah
@ILUV2SK8 504 You know the comment has a historical background that makes it funny. Chill man and google who designed the very first one Beetle (Ferdinand Porsche)
ILUV2SK8 504 jeeez, why so serious
ILUV2SK8 504 Dude would you just please chill down?????
Frank Rodriguez Interesting. Never knew the beetle was related to porsche
Concerning the question about the price paid for a "Beetle", I paid around $1900 for a new one! However, that was 1960 and it was a new 1960 model. It was my first new car after graduating from college!
Congrats! I've wanted a Bug since my parents got me the purple Barbie toy bug for my 3rd bday. Now I have a 2018 Coast, and love her absolutely. I call her Lola. ❤😊
I found u guys 2 weeks ago on TH-cam and I fan u guys doing a great job
I really love this review. This is one of my Dad's favorite car. Thank you guys, you're awesome!!
I bought the 2017 base model today and I'm picking it up on Saturday. First new car ever, so excited!!!
lol my girlfriend has a 2016/2017 denim edition convertible. Same wheels, replace seats with literal denim jean inserts (including jean pockets), heated seats, pretty much the same car. With the denim top and trunk spoiler, it looks like it's wearing a jean baseball cap. She has a turbo but like you said... not fast lol. Convertible can probably fit 1 box max so practicality is not there. So funny about the gloss black door sills, her car is white but still gets uncomfortably hot on a sunny day. I'd say this the better looking of the other gen Beetles. Great vid as always! Beetles cuter 100%
P.S. SHE PAID LIKE $23K FOR HERS NEW! $27K??? THAT'S ABSURD
Vick Lagina please send pics of the denim. I had a denim couch once
I'll send it to you guys on instagram later when I get home, pockets and all!
+Vick Lagina amazing. Had no idea that existed
I actually have myself a Beetle, a 2015MY Classic Edition. It has the exact same rims as this car but the interior trim is done in the body color (mine's Reflex Silver Metallic) and it's got these sweet-looking seats with checkered cloth inserts and carmel brown leather bolstering and headrests, complete with creme and brown stitching all over the interior. It is such a sweet little car, such fun to drive and I always get compliments on it since I clean and detail it every month or two.
You should do a special with Doug DeMuro!
and Savage Geese The world of Auto Reviews on YT is morphing. I vote for a 2018 Suscriber Drive Special Event with all 3
+Anthony C Brown savage geese eh. Stay tuned 😉
Shut up! Doug is the absolute worst car reviewer. Bt sadly he's got 20k likes on all his vids 😠
Excited for the Savagegeese collab. Your enthusiasm and his soul crushing dryness would make a wonderful contrast.
+Evan Andrews he's so savage
Never did I expect to see a 50% visor test pass!
Great review. Thanks for pointing out the volume knob! ;-) We drove this car in extremely windy conditions and it held the road great. I love the teal color. Apple CarPlay works really well. The rear seats don't lie totally flat like the did on the last model. Handles well.
I love how they're talking about how cold it is but Yuri is wearing a button-up haha. Great video as usual!
+disinferno06 its warm inside the car 😉
This is some great content guys! Subscribed!😁
Hahaha, no more confusion on where the bell is at! ;)
God have I been waiting for a new Beetle review!
Love the Beetle. Almost as much as the sun visor test!
Once again, great vid!
I got a 2013 beetle a couple of months back and absolutely love it..
That backup camera is amazing! Mine doesn’t have it but I’ll going to make sure my next one does! I’m eyeing the 2019 final edition!
Can't wait for reviewing Arteon
Awesome channel guys👍🏼
Love how this guys review some carss
This VW Beetle for 2018 is Spellbinding, Hypnotizing and Mesmerizing-This is Major, Real and Deep-Behold The Glory!
TheStraightPipes
Can you guys please do a car review/drive the new 2018 VW Jetta Se Sport.
Happy New Year!
Alen
The amount of devastation on jakubs face 😂
"here's a quirk.....are we allowed to use that word?" lol. I watch Doug all the time. I've just got into your channel and have put a lot of your stuff on my watch list. I have a lot to catch up on haha.
Love my 2018 Beetle Coast! (Daisy Bug) Grew up riding in a Beetle (14 years the SAME Beetle) Got my dream car at 61...and guys, I like it better than the ‘68 Camaro I had in the 80s!
I really wanna get one of these newer ones, the body shape is closer to the originals and that makes me happy
1:37 love the notifications bell icon on the registration plate
Finally a car video, and no less Straight Pipes video, that my girlfriend and I can enjoy together! (Her dream car is a beetle)
Awesome. And if she also happens to like the Mini Cooper, that's coming up on Thursday
lmao at the sun visors haha >.
I thought these guys were a joke the first time i saw their old video but man they're actually really good at reviewing! and the quality of their videos are so freaking good! I enjoy their reviews a lot
+Chuck Franco we're still a joke though. Just a better joke now
ha! good one. Well i definitely subscribed and i've been binge watching you reviews for the past weeks. Keep uploading more :)
+Chuck Franco 2 per week!
TheStraightPipes pls do the kia stinger!
+Chuck Franco we already did!
Love to see your videos... keep up the good work👍👍👍love from india..🇮🇳
Ah nostalgia. I miss mine! Bought a 8 month old Turbo with a 6MT with 2k miles for $15,000 USD back in 2013. Had all the same gripes though after living with it for 3 years. Always had to adjust volume with the steering wheel so the power logo would stay correct. I would burn my arm on occasion on the black door trim, and definitely had to wipe lotion off it too. Learned to do the underhand grab for the seatbelt, made life much easier. Did you guys ever have issues with the windows freezing during the test? Always had that issue every winter since the windows need to lower when opening to clear the seal.
+TheCubeIsIn Hahah that's amazing that you had the same gripes. No issues with the windows for us
My aunt had a Beetle convertible and during the winter the windows will freeze so it was hard to open the door, and I have a VW CC and it has frameless windows too and i have the same issue during the winter
Love these versions of the beetle. I have a 2012 turbo.
I'm a new subscriber (and bell clicker), and I can't get enough. Thanks, guys.
Just for fun, you should put a link in the description to a Canadian to U.S. Dollar calculator for all the complainers. :-)
Good review, as usual by these guys. But a note on the sunroof - those shades that don't fully block the sun suck on hot days.
The video follow along with your 2nd volume trick did not exactly follow the directions given, pedantic I know! Love the back and forth banter you guys have, very unique style that flows really well!
+Andrew S definitely pedantic
Nice review. Greetings from Belgium.
8:58 when you think both of the visors are going to slide and then SURPRISE lol
5:49 i agree with Jakub. This is an amazing list of cars that are gone
I forgot they still make this. And that beetle you want is a Porsche
Yes it is. I do want a Porsche 😂
@TheStraightPipes I enjoyed your review. First time here. Funny too. I was laughing out loud! Say, do you happen to know when the Beetle Final Edition is coming to the US? I need a date, if you have one by chance. I’m planning on picking up the latest Beetle this fall. Dealerships aren’t saying much. Appreciate any info you may have. 👍🏼
holy crap this channel is amazing
+road2stamfordbridge thanks!
HAPPY NEW YEAR GUYS!!!
Can you do a review on the brand new 2018 Nissan Leaf please please please???
Yes, we will this year
Love that the 007 is still getting air time, Jakub :)
+David Bourne of course. It's pretty much my daily. We've got a watch giveaway coming soon :)
OMG FIRSTSCHOMMENTTTT!!! I just wanted to say that I love you guys and thank you for making such fun car reviews. Your format is so novel and entertaining and your friendship is very endearing. Please come to India to check out our cars! It'll be a very fun mini series and an interesting contrast for you - diesel manual subcompacts everywhere! Happy new year and thanks for existing!!!!!
Thanks!
I went to Volkswagens Facebook page when they introduced the 2017 beetle without offering a manual transmission, I wasn't the only one lots of people still want manuals
It looks like the licence plate says COLD. Which is accurate being in Ontario right now.
clever subliminal messaging on the license plate @ 1:38 😏
+defib there's another one too 😉
TheStraightPipes ?
at the start when they say its pretty cold it has cold on the license plate.
1:07 :D OMG, YOU GUYS ARE TRYING TO TAKE OVER TH-cam!!!
So- I just rented a 2017 beetle and it didn’t feel stupid slow to me. That turbo was fun! I mean I also just tested a model 3 last week and it was like 3-4x quicker but I still had fun in this little bug.
I can`t comment much about the beetle!! I`m a huge fan of it! I`d love to buy one! ahahahh
12:00 NOS? I'm laughing so hard 😂
I thought the licence plate said "COLD" at first. Would've been very fitting for Canada right now
Haha yeah close enough
Did you have a different car at 1:02 & 1:38 or is that camera magic?
harrismi7 the sun changed a bit and made it look sparklier
+harrismi7 camera magic license plates 😉
The speechless response to the one-sided visor test was funny. You guys need a blooper reel.
Subscribe and notification 😁😁😁😄😁😄 love the plates lolol. Awesome job with the video. Easter eggs are the shit
Houndstooth for the win! I've always liked the R-Line trim. I wish they gave the Dune more ground clearance too.
$27,000 WTH! Oh Canadian. Beetle is cuter. Kia Soul Turbo to drive everyday. I'm sure my would say Beetle. Just found out about you guys couple weeks ago. Love your show. Has to be the best car review show for me right now. Wish guys best of luck and lots of views.
Man! You guys did an Amazing Job!🙌🏾🙌🏾
I just purchase a Beetle Bug! Coming from a Mercedes Benz. The turbo style, might just get me a ticket!😂😎
I truly 🖤 my car!
The beetle is a unique and legendary car
It *was* a unique and legendary car. The modern one is just a Golf in disguise.
Yup, they'll stop making them because it's a hard sell.
@@nodak81 but still is better than the 90s one...
The cruise control controls are easy to use. I have those in my 2002 Polo.
And the visor is just vw saving money. For example my car has no door sensor for the passenger side. So the interior lights only light up when the driver door is opened. That sensor cost extra.
Hey guys, awesome review! May I add that I am indeed one of those guys with OCD that does the exact thing you did with the volume knob. I am a VW guy and reset the position especially when detailing the interior (almost every other day!) #fellowCanuck
+Prashant Sharma haha awesome
Something was missing, then it hit me, GLASSES!
Beetle never disappoints me
Please review civic 2.0 manual
COLD on license plate haha. dat production value. love the photoshop touches you guys put in the videos.
in that list of retro cars that have left you should of included the challenger as one that survived. its the beetle and the challenger not just the beetle but still dope
I totally agree with Yuri on liking the retro beetles more. Currently the owner of a 01' GLS turbo beetle, and my friend has a tuned 03' turbo s with ~200hp now, both have auto-deploy spoilers which is totally unnecessary but awesome at the same time. I feel like at least Yuri would love to drive any of the retro beetles, but if Jakub was there doing a review would recommend at least a turbo GLS to somewhat please him in the handling and power department.
I’d love to drive some new beetles
TheStraightPipes well if you ever come down to the Portland Oregon area for whatever reason I've got two waiting for you! (Unfortunately only in silver and black nothing too crazy like yellow or red.)
I like color.
Its unique.
And the wheels.
lol if you guys ever want to do a review on a 2017 Sedona LX, you let me know! XD
The plate jokes are awesome!
+SlalomOrDie not jokes. Subscribe and hit the bell! 😂
Is a bummer that the beetle was discontinued here in brazil. For the price people've chosen the GTI instead.
but we had the original beetle in production until 1994 so you can find the original (not the new beetle the 1950s one) in good shape. Which is better because it is manual AND has rear engine.
Im driving my moms 2003 Beetle 2.0 with 116hp in cybergreen. She paid like 5k for it and it is so much fun. You always meet new people because of the car, they also want to take photos with and of it or even want to take a ride. If you are a person who isn't that into conversations with strangers it's absolut the wrong car for you ^^ 116hp isn't that fast but it's perfect for learning to drive like in mine case. If you want a sports car buy a Porsche. My dream car is a 2018 Beetle R-Line but unfortunately VW stopped selling the coupé in Germany.
7:13 I have the 2nd gen model and I agree 😊 Though I wouldn't mind driving this one with a manual transmission.
I like that this thing still exists, but i'm not into 'cute' cars so it's not for me but another awesome vid guys!
Make a video with Doug already..can't wait
Please don't.
u guys are driving down lower base line in milton, i had to recognize that
They do make a rear wheel drive Beetle roadster, it's just called a Boxster lol.
Luv u guys
you are gaining subs quickly
+Robby S. Trying to take over the world
Fact -- I am the ex-owner of a previous generation New Beetle turbo and by folding down the passenger seat, I was able to fit an 8' longboard completely inside and go surfing AND the best thing about owning one was watching people punch each other in the arm as I passed by.
Evan J 😬
+Evan J amazing
Loved the Doug reference
Guys please do a 340i review. You lack bmw reviews. Happy New Year. Keep it up.
+Dan Y bmw reviews coming right up good sir
Caught the easter egg
Love Volkswagen beetles !!! Want another one with a Manuel transmission...... Love driving a 5 speed !!! 🚗🚗
@TheSyraightPipes Hey guys, do you recall whether the 2018 Beetle has a REAR windshield wiper? I just can’t find it in the specs. Appreciate you letting me know if you can give me some info. Thank you!
Nothing will EVER be cuter than the Beetle!
Thumbsup for the tide gauge.
You refer to your other videos about VW infotainment screen. I scrolled all your videos and cannot find it. Please reply with link(s). I'm having trouble getting volume through car (vs through phone) all the time, which I seek. (I have 2018 VW Beetle Coast 2.0 Turbo Edition Convertible, in same color as in this video, with white top.)
You should do the new expedition
Haha u did exactly the same as me for my BMW 2AT volume nob. Leave it centered and only use the steering wheels vol control to change it.
Beetle is more cute than the mini crapper!
I actually like the teal color!
The 2000s Beetle was unreliable. Hope this one will prove itself otherwise as it also looks much better.
I dig the retro rims. So unique and reminiscent of the first Beetle and Bus.
Yuri, it is freezing in Ontario, what's with the summer outfit?? Hawaii is ancient history!!😂
Nabil Matar coast edition yuri
Yuri Tereshyn hahaha
The reviews are excellent and Yuri 😍🤐
JakeDrives thanks!
If you get your hands on one, can you please do a review of the Dune??!
that cruise control is in VW more than 10 years and it works great
+master_unknown not all of the current models are like this. The having it on the steering wheel works much better
Yuri needs to break out the long sleeve shirts / thermals. The snow / ice and Yuri in short sleeves tells me HE IS A REBEL WITH A CAUSE. 2018 - A year of visor surprises
I have a few onesies
I like the retro wheels. This is going to be the last ''new beetle'' btw. The model has been discontinued.
Mini and fiat 500 are still around
Arthur Embleton the HHR to be honest is just a Chevy PT Cruiser
Arthur Embleton u
what happens if you combine yuri and jakubs faces??
We did a mashup, here you go: i.imgur.com/hES7D98.jpg
pretty accurate
TheStraightPipes Brad Pitt 😂
yukubs or jakuri ?
Long jakuri
