However, after reading Brendan McAleer&#8217;s &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/jalopnik.com\/five-reasons-to-drive-a-super-beetle-1699726558\" target=\"_blank\">Five Reasons to Drive a &#8216;Super&#8217; Beetle,<\/a>&#8221; that opinion is likely to change. As the article&#8217;s title suggests, McAleer lays out five straightforward and convincing reasons to find a way to get behind the wheel of a Super Beetle as soon as possible. And thankfully, as the article observes, the Super Beetle isn&#8217;t so rare that driving one is a dream unlikely to come true; rather, these cars were &#8220;a ubiquitous feature of the motoring landscape of the \u201860s and \u201870s&#8221; and thus many are still around.<\/p>\n<p>And as a vestige of a bygone era, the Super Beetle comes with a storied history, which McAleer posits is enough to motivate car buffs and history buffs alike to track one down, along with the &#8220;near-endless well of stories&#8221; that come with it.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, it&#8217;s not just the history that provides allure to this model. As the article astutely points out, this is a car driver&#8217;s car &#8211; and it goes fast. The Super Beetle is not only super in name but is super fun to drive as well, providing something that everyone &#8211; from amateur drivers to experienced ones. If you didn&#8217;t know about or didn&#8217;t want to drive a Super Beetle before reading this article, you surely will afterward.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As far as most people are concerned, a Beetle isn&#8217;t on most people&#8217;s &#8220;must-drive&#8221; list.
