"Punch Buggy <Insert Color Here>!" Is VW ruining the game???

I'm sure many of you grew up playing "Punch Buggy" or "Slug Bug" where the first person to spot a VW Beetle would shout those fateful words plus the color and give his/her sibling, friend, cousin, (maybe if you were brave) parent a good punch in the arm. Never having fully matured, I still play the game with my kids. Of course my daughter has the ability to pick them out behind 75 cars and/or buildings so needless to say a trip to ME rendered a pretty good black and blue on my arm. (And yes, I allow her to use the new Beetle. OK with some, not with others.) But I digress.

Volkswagen's recent "Punch Dub" campaign *ahem* bugs me since it completely bastardizes the original game by opening it up to the entire VW line. Who am I kidding, it annoys the heck out of me.

Am I the only one who has a problem with it?
