since we are on the subject of more simpler cars... i have been thinking of selling my daily and getting an older beetle that is already in running order to drive to work everyday(4 days a week, less than 20 miles round trip). how much would one cost that is already running and in good shape? i dont need one that is tricked out at all either, in fact i would rather have a plain jane one.

there is no fucking way i would have a vehicle with one of those type shifters. i remember trying to help a guy with a newer 7 series. he was stuck in the middle of the road, car completely dead. couldn't even get it into neutral! apparently he had just got the car back from the dealer cause of a battery problem and when driving in traffic the car's electronics starting going crazy, the engine died and a few seconds after he put it into park and put on his hazards the entire car went dead. i was gonna help him push it off the road but it would not come out of park. i even slid under the car looking for a linkage to undo but i soon realized it wasn't an 82 chevy pickup where you could just undo the linkage and shift it to whatever you want haha

same happened to a homeboy's 745 not too long ago. apparantly it's popular in those 02-04s and bmw will replace your idrive system for a small fee im sure. i believe there was a recall.

those cars are fuckin j-u-n-k

I miss my 83 fairmont. That bitch was simple.
The wife had a coworker with a Jeep liberty. She had a check engine light, and when I pulled the code it was a malfunctioning electronic shifter.
Was going to be a few hundred dollars to fix. She said fuck it I'll drive it till it quits.

I'M sure she fixed it when she needed inspection since it failed for it but I wouldn't want any of that electrical sh&t on my shifter ever.

vws arent as simple as people think when you get into how every thing works on them its pretty neat how they are built... To daily drive one, they need constant attention (its a 50 something year old car depending on year you get, stay away from anything 68+). Valves are the main thing to keep and eye one and keep in proper adjustment.

Used bugs in good shape go around 3-4k

I miss my 64.
