Volkswagen Vw Concept One/new Beetle Coffee Cup, Dealer Item, Made In Usa, Bug on 2040-parts.com
Arlington, Virginia, US
On auction is a factory authorized coffee cup available only through Volkswagen dealerships to celebrate the recent announcement of the Concept One (New Beetle) in 1996. I bought this cup at a VW dealership in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1996...just as VW was raising the spirits of those longing for a re-release of the New Beetle.
I bought this cup (and a tie/lapel pin which I will offer separately) as I had two vintage VWs at the time and still love the old VWs. The cup sat in my display case for years until I packed things away for safe keeping. I am trying to thin out my collection and thought it time to move this on to a new home where it can provide another VW enthusiast some joy.
The cup is really unique (and was expensive at the time...even for buying it from a dealership). It is a heavy ceramic cup that looks to be about 12-14 oz. The color is perfect black and front and back of the cup has a 2.5" x 3" grey silkscreen, iconic three circle image that inspired the shape of the Beetle (old and new). The best part about the cup is the handle -- also in the shape of the New Beetle. It was designed to celebrate that wonderful car and certainly is destined as a collectible.
The cup is MADE IN THE USA.
Again, these are authorized VW items available through the dealerships.
Thanks for your interest!
Lowered starting price.

Fuel cell Hyundai powers ecosystem installation
Mon, 21 Oct 2013IN AN UNUSUAL combination of motoring and gardening, car manufacturer Hyundai has created a design installation consisting of a aquaponics ecosystem powered by the emissions from its fuel-cell vehicle. Aquaponics is a sustainable method of farming that combines growing plants in water (hydroponics) and aquaculture (raising fish in tanks). Unlike any other fuel-powered vehicle, the hyrdrogen fuel cell ix35 emits nothing other than water when being driven.
Ford Interceptor (2007): first official pictures
Tue, 02 Jan 2007By Tim Pollard First Official Pictures 02 January 2007 12:51 Ford Interceptor Concept: the lowdown What do you get if you take the iconic Ford Mustang and mix in a four-door saloon with a large dollop of attitude? Ford has tried just that and come up with the Interceptor concept, due to bow in at the Detroit Motor Show next week. Conceived along the lines of the Chrysler 300C, this is a four-door you'd be happy to drive, unlike many of Ford's recent saloons.
