As the old saying goes, “Laugh, and the world laughs with you; cry, and you cry alone,” but with a little help from Volkswagen and the 2012 Beetle, The American Comedy Fund would like to change that.
The American Comedy Fund was established by MTV Networks and Comedy Central as the first-ever charitable fund dedicated exclusively to providing social services and emergency assistance to comedic performers in times of need.
Volkswagen is donating a 2012 Beetle to The American Comedy Fund. The all-new Beetle, which boasts a sleek new look, increased horsepower, new engine offerings and a higher fun-to-driving ratio, will be auctioned off on eBay Motors with all proceeds benefitting The American Comedy Fund.
Comedy Central is honoring comedy’s brightest stars in the Comedy Awards. The event airs Sunday April 10, 2011 on Comedy Central with simulcasts on Spike TV, CMT, LOGO, Nick at Nite, TV Land and VH1. Tune in to the Comedy Awards for special announcements about The American Comedy Fund and the auction for the 2012 Volkswagen Beetle.

Do they come in other colors besides red, white, and black? When will the vw beetle come in stores near us. Can’t wait to buy one. hope they are a reasonable price.
I want this!! =)
Sure, why not. Passenger seat fits an adult. And cencahs are that is where the kid is going, ain’t it. Whether it be a new beetle or old. And they NEVER caught fire because of the engine. That is a tale of lunatics. Take a look. The battery is under the back seat. Chances are it is the wrong battery(too high with uncovered battery posts) and when positive and negative posts touch the seat springs you get a shorting happening(it glows red hot and the seat catches on fire(it is an electrical fire due to putting in a cheap chevy battery in there. I know, I did it in a VW rabbit. Wrong battery and bumpy road and it shorted out on the hood. They are extremely well built cars using strip welding rather than spot welding methods. They do not fall apart. And the new ones have multiple air bag protection
I currently have the 2003 Beetle! I can’t wait to get this one in White!! I’m in love! Does anyone know when it comes out?!!
