As for air cooled stuff I would have a hard time chasing away a square back, and I do like a bug. Busses are neat but don't do for me what they do for others.
Y'know, Dad has a Squareback he has been storing way too long and is ready to pass on to someone. I think I've posted a for sale thread before, but I can dig up pics if anyone is interested.
Couple of fenders are off so the tinworm could be drug out and stomped on, but its all there.
I grew up with many VWs in my life.
My grandparents had a pea green Westphalia (75 I think). Dad had a modified Formula Vee for autocross, 1989(?) 8V GTI for street/autocross which he turned into his Improved Touring B car, an A2 16V GTI after that, an 86 Rabbit for a brief while, then another A2 16V GTI.
I'd love to own a bus or a Beetle in my lifetime, or an A2 of my own.

I found one of these parked in my neighbourhood back in the 1970 and have lusted after them ever since. OK, not technically a VW, but...
