Exactly...just wondering about the driving feel since the engines are the same. I might test drive one for grins but that's it. I test drove a GTI as couple of years ago and thought it was pretty darn good, but not worth the sticker of around 28k. While I do think the new beetle looks decent (subjective obviously), I'd never buy one. Like someone else said, VW's are overpriced and the maintenance costs a pretty penny too and since I once owned a Jetta I can also say DIY is a PITA for pretty much everything too. Also I'd say they tend to be in the lower end of the reliability scale too compared to other makes.
