A Bug with an Attitude
I saw this Volkswagen Bug the other day that I can’t stop thinking about. It was one of the new ones, all silvery grey. This little car has adopted the best of the Honda racing world and that of muscle cars, or at least it tried.
I‘ve seen Civics with shopping cart handles and huge tailpipes that make them sound like mutant bumblebees. I’ve seen Chevelles and Camaros with dual exhaust and way bigger engines that, to me, just sound awesome. And then there was this little Bug with a big tailpipe. That is funny in and of itself. This isn’t some race Beetle from the ’70’s. This is a modern-day, bumblebee Bug.
The best part was the accompanying bumper sticker. All it said was Flowmasters. Perfect.
