its funny what non-vw types think what makes a superbeetle. i've heard taillights, motor, tranny( wtf ?), rims, bumpers... but never the struts.

What's with these guys who do not put a price on an ad? Really pisses me off!
Make me an offer, I know , how about 50 dollars!
Is it really that hard to give people some idea of how much you are hoping to get for something or is it just the idea that some moron might offer way more than it's worth?

The first link shows that it's from a Ford Dealer. I think he meant to say it's a Shelby Beetle! :)
