Card description[]
- The Volkswagen Beetle was initially built for the people, but as the decades went on, it became much more. In the 1970s, the combination of the Beetle's small body and performance tweaks made this car a contender on the drag strip with Matchbox enlisting their own Dragon Wheels to compete. A green exterior with racing livery causes this drag racer to stand out at every race it shows up to. Not to worry, the parachute box keeps the Super Beetle body grounded.
