NASCAR, Disney team up for 'Herbie'

[Snip]

NASCAR fans at California Speedway in Fontana will get a chance to see firsthand movie magic being made as the A-list cast and crew of Herbie: Fully Loaded roll off the soundstage and into the NASCAR garages, pits and onto the track at both the NASCAR Nextel Cup Series and NASCAR Busch Series races Labor Day weekend. Making his NASCAR debut, Herbie and NASCAR's biggest names will shift into action on the pace lap, alongside his pit crew production team and the film's stars. In the NASCAR tradition, Herbie will be customized in sponsor-laden NASCAR gear and customized with his lucky No. 53.

Herbie: Fully Loaded stars Lindsay Lohan, Justin Long, Breckin Meyer, Matt Dillon and Michael Keaton. Along with the cast, NASCAR Nextel Cup Series drivers Dale Earnhardt Jr., Jamie McMurray, Casey Mears, Kevin Harvick and Rusty Wallace will have cameos in the film. The film is scheduled for release in the Summer of 2005.

It's not one of the bland, over sleek and over designed New Beetles is it?

Ugh! Let's make a car and remove all of its character that made it so appealing in the first place. Well done VW!
