Bye-Bye Beetle

I've always wanted a Beetle as companion to Brian's Bus (although now I have a Celebrity-thanks Joe!). But I guess now I have to buy one used.

BERLIN June 6 —
Volkswagen said Friday it will stop making the original rear-engine Beetle later this year, bringing the curtain down on the nearly 70-year history of the classic "bug."

Production of the last old Beetles at the VW plant in Puebla, Mexico, will "end this summer," spokesman Fred Baerbock said, adding that an exact date was not set
.

I didn't even know they were making old Beetles anymore. Are they expensive?
