If you think you're excited for the 2012 Volkswagen Beetle, just imagine how thrilled the audience members of The Oprah Winfrey Show must have been when they learned they'd be receiving one for FREE as a part of the show's "Ultimate Favorite Things" giveaway? The vehicle's iconic silhouette was shown off on the show on November 22nd, 2010, just before Oprah announced that every audience member would be getting the keys to one as soon as the vehicle launched, in 2011.
That's right, every audience member learned they'd be driving home their own 2012 Volkswagen Beetle as soon as it's released, and they've been waiting patiently ever since... Until now, that is. On October 13th, the big day finally came as Volkswagen delivered the highly anticipted and redesigned Beetle to dealership lots across the country, just like East Coast Volkswagen.
We realize that some of you out there may be wondering exactly why Oprah picked the Volkswagen Beetle to be on her "Ultimate Favorite Things" list, but we honestly think the choice was likely a pretty easy one. However, in case the one-of-a-kind styling and topnotch build quality don't say it themselves, we'll let Jonathan Browning, president and CEO, Volkswagen of America, Inc. explain.
"The 2012 Beetle is an American icon that has been redesigned to fulfill the needs of the modern driver, while remaining true to its vintage characteristics. It is fully-customizable and is our sportiest, most fuel-efficient Beetle yet," says Browning. "We are very proud to present a new generation of Beetle owners with a vehicle that is built with no-compromise German engineering, is fun to drive, and will no doubt spark a sense of nostalgia and community that only the Beetle can evoke."2
