LEGO Volkswagen Beetle LTD Edition

I came across an auction on eBay today of a LEGO Volkswagen Beetle LTD Edition.  I didn't know anything about this particular LEGO Set, so I went ahead and did a bit of research.  I actually found the LEGO Beetle for sale at LEGO.com which is not normal so it must be pretty new.  According to the LEGO Group:

LEGO® fans around the world named the famed Volkswagen Beetle as the classic car that they most wanted as a LEGO model…and now it’s finally here! Based on the iconic 1960 “Charlotte” model, the LEGO Volkswagen Beetle features realistic details and functions like opening doors, hood and trunk, a spare tire in the front and engine in the back, an accurate interior, and more.

Apparently we as a LEGO community voted the Beetle as the car we most wanted as a LEGO model.  I think I may have voted for a corvette myself but that's just me. LEGO is selling the LEGO Volkswagen Beetle LTD Edition for a cool $119 bucks at their official site but I'm sure you can pick it up cheaper if you look around a bit.
