The Volkswagen Cabriolet is a car that has enjoyed popularity with women, but if there was one particular version of the venerable open roofed VW that could have increased the appeal amongst the fairer sex it would have been this car, the Mk1 Etienne Aigner Edition Cabriolet. Volkswagen created a plethora of special edition models over the years, but the Mk2 went a bit overboard with this tradition, with well over 50 different limited edition models offered over the course of the production run. The special edition craze was a bit less widespread amongst the Cabriolet, which was sold in Mk1 form alongside the Mk2. A few versions such as the Wolfsburg, CC and Carat appeared along with the Etienne Aigner, which was available in Mangrove Green, Midnight Blue, or Bordeaux Red, as we see on this example for sale in New Jersey.

Here is a nice example and well preserved VW Cabriolet Etienne Aigner Edition, Bordeaux Red Pearl Metallic/Red color. Very nice 5 speed transmission. It has an after market radio with a nice sub woofer that makes you enjoy the music while the top is down. Brand new Michelin tires, new radiator, thermostat, alternator, battery & brakes. It looks very good and it is RUST FREE. Top is in good shape but has one small tear on the upper rear corner (shown in pics). I will let you judge this one, if interested or have any question contact me 6156138120
All Etienne Aigner Cabriolets had special cloth interiors with Aigner logos in combination in conjunction with the Le Castellet alloy wheels. The three options available were a power convertible top, air conditioning and a 3-speed automatic gearbox. This 5-speed manual car has air conditioning but no mention of the power top. Last October, we featured a Mangrove Green Etienne Aigner Cabriolet with 91k mi. With a little under 20,000 miles more, it will be interesting to see if this special Cabriolet will bring a significant amount more money six months later.
