Default Greetings from Santiago, Chile.....

Over several days only one white Panamera and one white Cayenne, but quite a few of these air kooled ancestors.....

Wow, that looks brand new. Never owned one, but I do love the old beetles.

Wow, that looks brand new.
Missing air intake for additional engine cooling in rear quarter panels (above fender and just rear of rear side windows) is an indicator that this one is "newer"

Mexican built models (last production anywhere) used the 1.6 (option) up until production ended in July 2003 and these were sold as 2004 models. The Brazilians actually made a 1.7 where they bored out the 1.6 motor. Why they did this I don't know, as it was reported to cost an extra $500us option for a 12hp gain. Perhaps they threw other upgrades in for the price?

Cool. Weather looks great. This was me about a year ago to the day. Took a couple of hours to get it hauled out. I was going for the cup.
