Model Trivia

The annual Wolfsburg Edition sales campaign began with the 1983 model-year Rabbit Convertible and was offered for that year only in triple-white.

-----

Star Blue Metallic was only offered on the 1989 Wolfsburg Edition Cabriolet which was part of a special 40th Anniversary sales campaign. This model had its own special interior, commonly called "Helios" due to the interior being installed in Helios Blue Metallic Jettas.

-----

Contrary to popular belief, these models were not assembled at Volkswagen's main plant in Wolfsburg; they were built right alongside all other Cabriolet models at the Karmann factory in Osnabrück, Germany. "Wolfsburg Edition" is simply a smart marketing name.

-----

All Wolfsburg Edition Cabriolets were built at the end of the production cycle. What this means: All Wolfsburg Edition Cabriolets will have high sequential production numbers and will have been built, usually, between April and July.
