The story behind the Volkswagen Drag Bus

This model transforms a classic VW bus into a high-performance dragster with an aggressive stance and vibrant styling. It is part of the Red Line Club lineup, which features exclusive models made only for members rather than standard retail stores.

Materials, colors and value

The finish is particularly striking, utilizing Spectraflame Teal paint which offers an opaque yet metallic look different from regular gloss finishes. The base underneath has a chrome plated appearance to enhance its premium feel. Interior details are shown in gray tones while windows range from smoke to clear tints. Since RLC items do not circulate on general store shelves, this specific version holds high value among serious collectors who track membership releases.
