Two more shots of the VW Convertible, but I could get one of the girl who picked the guy up in the thing.

I suspect this was filmed on the Taconic State Parkway somewhere.

I knew it had to be either 1971 or 1972. I almost thought it was the Super Beetle until I took a closer look at the windshield.

That second thumbnail is just before they pull over and the hitchhiker chases her into the woods.

1972 for the colour.

electra225 wrote 1972 for the colour.

L-11E Lemon Yellow of the 1970-71 looks less - yellow - than L13M Saturn Yellow of 1972 onwards, yes.

'71 deck lid, '71 steering wheel (which is hard to switch for this older steering wheel, and why?) so still going for '71.
