I wish.. Part 9

The new VW Beetle

I've always loved this adorable and tiny 'people's car'. I was so delighted when VW launched the new Beetle in India in December 2009 but the price tag quickly dampened my enthusiasm.. Rs. 21 lakhs for the 'people's car'? That is outrageous. The Beetle was developed as an economy car, ein Auto für Jedermann but VW's price tag has turned it into a mockery of that term.

Oh, and the colors.. The Beetle in India is available in Salsa Red, Black, Candy White, Sunflower, Reflex Silver and Laser Blue.. How completely boring (except for maybe Sunflower- featured above). If I could ever have one, I would want it in lime green :) Ah, wünschen..

Wishes do come true?

I'm gonna start putting up more 'I wish..' posts because my wishes are getting granted :) Well, at least one of them was.. These Reeboks were on sale at Big Bazaar and guess where they are now? That's right.. Chilling on my shoe rack.. Hmm.. Next post ought to be 'I wish..' for a million dollars I think.. What say? ;)
