Its okay bill, there is also a chop top version of it in the movie! I Personally thought that the "Herbie" was too animated. Making it smile or frown, dorky eyelids. Shaking like a dog, whining like a weinie. But when the poor bugger was being trashed at the demolition derby, I was thinking how badly I needed that sunroof clip for our 58 alfie. :-(
