1989 Volkswagen Cabriolet — Boutique Edition | Turn-Key Classic
This Boutique Edition 1989 Volkswagen Cabriolet is a beautifully curated example that blends classic VW character with extensive, thoughtful restoration. It has been upgraded where it matters most while preserving the authenticity enthusiasts value.
Mechanically, this Cabriolet is exceptionally strong, featuring a newly rebuilt engine and newly rebuilt automatic transmission, making it a true turn-key classic that starts easily and drives with confidence. The car has been refreshed using OEM components throughout, including a new OEM convertible top, OEM top liner, OEM boot, new OEM seats, and new OEM carpeted floor mats. The interior presents fresh, clean, and correct — a standout feature of this car.
Additional improvements include new tires and a new stereo with speakers, providing modern usability without detracting from the car’s vintage charm.
The car retains its original paint, which presents well and shows nicely, though it is not perfect, as expected for an original finish of this age. This adds honesty and originality, allowing the next owner to enjoy it as-is or refinish it in the future if desired.
With well over $20,000 invested, the focus has been on reliability, factory-correct details, and overall driving enjoyment — not shortcuts or cosmetic disguises. The result is a Cabriolet that stands far above average examples on the market.
The only reason for sale is simple: it doesn’t get driven enough. My loss is truly your gain. Finding a Boutique Edition Cabriolet with this level of mechanical investment and presentation is becoming increasingly rare.
Serious inquiries only. This is a special car that delivers both charm and confidence.
