It won't fit in a VW Beetle...old or new version.
Stick the tail out the winder an' go reeel slow
Last car I bought was chosen because it is a compact car that will hold a third scale aerobat. If you're car shopping you gotta check out either the Pontiac Vibe, or the Toyota Matrix. The back seats fold to a perfectly flat surface with t-nut channels and tie down straps. On top of that, the front passenger seat folds flat just about two inches higher than the rear area.
Both cars are built around the Corrola. My 40 sized Edge goes in without disassenbly. The prop of my 2m pattern plane comes up to just about even with the gear shift
