I like it.Congrats. I guess the Bummer dealer offered you a deal that knocked your socks off.

On that model,; creamsickle, creamy coleslaw, Smurf blur, it all works for me. Anything that would also suit a new Beetle.

Kinda redundant keeping the old one, unless you are just ballin' outta control IMHO.Got kids?

No kids. Dealer wasn't fire selling the car, I honestly just really like the color. The Limerock Park edition is the only other one I may consider instead of this, but being the only one, I really like this.

If I could have jumped on a color that stunning I would have. That's absolutely beautiful; good choice!

Thanks. I like the unique factor, but in all honesty I just love the color. It is a Motorsport color and reminds me of a lot of really iconic vehicles. For me it was a no brainer, but I still get a lot of criticism. Not that I care what anyone says, but I do hear it.

Congrats! At first glance I thought it was a respray from a body shop, but the fact it's a documented factory color, makes it very, very cool! Mint Green is one of the colors I'm considering respraying my Miata, good taste my man. Definitely hang onto it, and who knows? It might be worth something to a BMW collector down the line.

Wow that's really cool. I'm surprised how much I like it, but I definitely like it.

What's the colour called in German (on the strut tower)?

Thanks. That is kind of what I was thinking too. Hold it for a while and keep the mileage low then sell, or just drive it forever and have a long beautiful relationship with the cars either way I like that it is unique.

I will have to see the 4 when it comes out, but I do agree for now.
