Ah memories of my old dune buggy days. You could by one of these for 50 bucks back then.

A million bucks? No friggin way.

Breathtaking as a blast to the past:

[Bonemaker]

Oh well, I bought a brand new '67 Bug when I was stationed in West Berlin. Why oh why did I sell it?? 😑

[bankwalker]

I’ll bet that pair of low mileage superbirds didn’t bring half that last week.

[Mears]

OMG,we had one——blew all over the highway IIRC.

[blueunicorn6]

How many cup holders does it have?

None?

Fiddy cents, then

[DickBrannigan]

A lasting creation of the Third Reich.

[DickBrannigan]

I wonder how much a Renault Dauphine, in similar condition, would sell for.

[The Mayor]

I’ve had 11 bugs from 57-72 I want another. I do have a 70 VW Trike tho.

[LibWhacker]

Had a pretty nice ‘59 Beetle I bought in 1968 for $200 (iirc) when I was stationed in Germany, and I thought I paid too much! Drove that thing into the ground over the next couple of years. The ‘64 looked incredibly modern to me back in those days, lol. Good luck to them getting a million dollars for it, though.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

I remember they were advertised for $1776 in the local TV guide for years.

[cableguymn]

I have a 2001 I’d take alot less for

I remember a buddy of mine bought a VW bug for 75 bucks back in the 1970s. What I remember about riding in Bugs is how frigging cold they were in the Winter.

[Bringbackthedraft]

I would buy one today if they still made them. I had 2 in the 70’s, also 2 Combi’s and a Carmen Ghia. The perfect cars for the age of commuting to work and city parking.

[bigbob]

The ole boys down at the coffee shop always said if you’d just buy a new car and cover it up and keep it in storage somewhere, it’d be worth a million dollars some day...

[KarlInOhio]

I wouldn't pay that much for a 1964 Beatle much less a Beetle.

[John S Mosby]

Aircooled, Ferdinand Porsche designed. OK. The “Volk’s” Wagon... the People’s Car. Think about that ‘perfection’.

Later version of the same political concept.. the Trabant of E. Germany. Or the Russian Lada one can see sometimes in Jamaica.

Pop called a combi VW bus he had (which,uh, caught fire in the engine— in summer, since it had no water cooling system for high compression engine).... “Hitler’s Revenge”.

Nice run about— local jumper. A socialist’s dream, oh and Euro one at that. 1 mill? no way.

My Dad bought a Beetle convertible in the early 70’s, put about 100k on it and sold it 10 years later for more than he bought it, rusted floorboards and all.
