Product Description
Before it even hit showroom floors in Spring 1998, Volkswagens New Beetle had DIY enthusiasts and potential buyers licking their chops for the opportunity to wrench every possible bit of horsepower and handling out of the dynamic, retro-looking package. This comprehensive step-by-step, how-to performance handbook written specifically for owners of the New Beetle offers advice for upgrading engines, transmissions, suspension, and brakes, from inexpensive aftermarket tweaks to the ultimate street-performance parts and upgrades currently on the market.

3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, October 24, 2003
By Brian Zimmer (Denver, CO United States) - See all my reviews
While Keith may be an expert on the original Type 1 Beetle, I felt a bit disappointed by this book. Perhaps I was expecting more, but the book really doesn't go into too much detail, or at least not as much as I was hoping for. I can get more info on the New Beetle from NewBeetle.org
