Background Story of this 1998 Volkswagen Beetle

One of the fleet of Nintendo Vehicles coined as "PokePatrol" that toured the United States to promote Pokemon in 1998 through the mid-2000s.

Overview of 1998 Volkswagen Beetle For Sale by Owner

The Volkswagen Beetle is such an icon of car culture that it's hard to see how a follow-up could be done. However, that's just what Volkswagen did in 1997 with the aptly-named New Beetle. While the New Beetle would be somewhat constrained by modern safety and emissions regulations, it still emerged as a fond tribute to the original. Thanks to its cutesy nature, the New Beetle would see some adaptations, such as witnessed by this 1998 Volkswagen Beetle Pikabug. Said to be #9 from the PokePatrol fleet, this one-of-a-kind Beetle sports a healthy 176,000 miles, showing that it enjoys long runs. The current owner reports the car has a new engine and also comes with the original engine. It holds the crown of being one of the fleet of Nintendo Vehicles coined as "PokePatrol" that toured the United States to promote Pokemon in 1998 through the mid-2000s. Let's delve a little deeper into its specifics, but if you're a Pokemon fan, no need to read any further. Just get in touch with us, and we'll tell you how to take it home.

Exterior and Interior

Thundershock Yellow coats this 1998 Volkswagen Beetle Pikabug from tip to tail. Yes, it has a custom Pikachu tail, as well as custom Pikachu painting features, stripes, eyes, cheeks, mouth, feet, and logo decals. The interior of this 1998 Volkswagen Beetle Pikabug is mostly standard Volkswagen New Beetle. That means you get a circular gauge cluster with modern gauges, power windows, power mirrors, power door locks, cruise control, and air conditioning. There's even the original Volkswagen head unit with a radio and cassette player. But there's also a custom Pikachu 4-speaker sound system with remote control.

Engine

This 1998 Volkswagen Beetle Pikabug features a punchy yet economical 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine under its cute hood, driving the front wheels via a 5-speed manual gearbox sending drive to the front wheels. We're also informed that the car has received a recent oil change.
