Definitely #1. Having had my buggy painted twice by a graffiti artist I'm a little biased. I like those graphics.

Very tough decision this month, but #5 grabbed me the most.

Plain and Simple

Boy!!!!--It's hard choice this month. all have style and a little class, but I think # 2. It's plain and simple with style, and he added a little of himself to it with the shifter control to set off a little class.

Five gets my nod. It's the only one this month that has the roll bar and the windshield going back at the same angle! It just doesn't look right with two different angles. It's just one of my many pet peeves about building FDB's....

What a list of great choises. However, as an aviation nut and attending Oshkosh for my 21st year with my aerospace engineer daughter who is also involved with VW's and fighter aircraft - it has to be #2. Great idea!

Tough choice once again this month. All great looking buggies. #4 caught my eye initially because of the radical departure from normal buggies but then got things narrowed down to #2 and #5 or was it #5 and then #2. With the simple flip of a coin #5 ends up getting my vote this month. Nice job to everyone however.

#2 is the only one I would be comfortable with off-road, and thats where their roots are. If it dont go off-road it dont go with me. Get some paddles on there and tear it up...........
