2010 Volkswagen New Beetle

 Since its debut in 1998, the Golf-based, retro-styled New Beetle has gone through a refresh or two, with continual improvements made and additional trim levels added, including a drop-top version. Still, the party couldn't last forever, and now VW has announced that 2010 will be the final model year for this aging neo-icon.

To commemorate the end of the New Beetle (though an all-new car is said to be in the works), VW will launch a special Final Edition model run, with 1500 cars to be available beginning in Spring 2010. To be sold exclusively in the U.S., Final Edition coupes will feature unique Aquarius Blue paint and a black roof, while convertibles will get a two-tone paint scheme with Aquarius Blue and Campanella White, along with a white top and interior.
