Hey G-dog!
The car will pass Air Care. As well as the helicopter turbine (1350hp), the beetle still has the stock water pumper motor. The car has California plates, and is driven on the street.  The owner has a problem with the turbine sucking the flower out of the bud vase.

obviously the owner is compensating for other areas where he is \"less endowed.\"  :D
