Steffi's Beetle
Hi friends! Today I'm presenting to you my wife's Volkswagen Beetle. A few weeks ago she asked me out of a sudden if I would mind if she would buy her a M-chassis Beetle. You can imagine how perplex I was. Of course I agreed and a few days later the kit arrived. She assembled it all on her own, cut the shell and applied the decals. Only the paintwork was done by me. First she thought about painting it all red but as soon as I showed to her a picture of a real Beetle in this colours she changed her mind immediately. The car is stock except for ball bearings, a LRP ESC and oil filled shocks. I think its fast enough with the silver can motor only the suspension setup needs some work since its almost impossible to ride a straight line. Cheers, Norbert

Very cool looking beetle you got there. It almost seems ashame to paint over the chrome, but here it only makes the car twice as nice. They are hard to keep in a straight line as they are so fun to drive. I think a better gripping tire might be a fix to your problem, just from personal experience I speak as I just couldn't stop doing donuts with my stock build car.

Lovely, well done!

This thing looks super scale. With a nice paint job. If it wasn't for the body mounts sticking threw the hood I would have sworn it was a 1:1 . Well done.

Thanks for all the comments guys! The best thing is: Steffi didn't know that I put pics of her Beetle into my showroom so she was really surpised.

Beautiful paint job! Anything faster than the silver can and you'll be driving in donuts constantly.
