175 = "Have you ever priced a '64 Beetle with airbag readiness, fasten safety belt, door ajar, charging system, low engine oil pressure, brake system/parking brake, check engine, overdrive off (automatic transmission), anti-lock brake system (optional), fuel filler door, low fuel and loose fuel cap warning lights?"

How much is a 2004 VW Beetle without those items?

Pretty darn close to infinity. Are you that thick?

Check that list --- I'm sure some of those 'options' were also on the '64 car --- maybe not fuel warning lights but gas gauges that accomplish the exact same thing --- more reliably. Mirrors on passenger visors shouldn't really be a huge cost or improvement --- I don't know if they were on cars in the 60's though.
