Subject:      Cool potential wheels for Vanagon
Comments: To: vanagon@vanagon.com

See?  The chatter about the new Beetle has Vanagon connections, maybe.


I, too, saw a new bright red Beetle today, shod in really nice alloy
wheels.  A VW with five-lug-wheels again!  I don't know yet if they will
fit, but they are 16" wheels, five lug bolts, and all bets are that VW
used the same wheels as the EV -- which *do* fit.


Just think, in another twenty years the wrecking yards will be full of 'em.


BTW, the new beetle is really nice, and it's "as cute as a bug"!  Lots of
amenities.  We will definately buy one once the rush is over.  Local dealer
is currently adding $1000 to the sticker -- for local residents only.
Apparently, dealers in LA are offering other dealers quite a sum to ship
their quotas south.  They are quoting a real high price for out-of-towners.
