It seemed like there were so many of these, but I think there were only three.  I never actually seen any of the films, but I've always believed that they are horrendous.  Were they even "Films"?

    * The Love Bug (1969) - Directed by Robert Stevenson
    * Herbie Rides Again (1974) - Directed by Robert Stevenson
    * Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo (1977) - Directed by Vincent McEveety
    * Herbie Goes Bananas (1980) - Directed by Vincent McEveety
    * Herbie: Fully Loaded (2005) - Directed by Angela Robinson

There has also been a TV series (of which only five episodes were made, each one hour long) and a TV remake of the original movie in 1997:

    * "Herbie the Matchmaker" - original air date: 17 March 1982 (also known as "The Love Bug")
    * "Herbie to the Rescue" - original air date: 24 March 1982
    * "My House Is Your House" - original air date: 31 March 1982
    * "Herbie, the Best Man" - original air date: 7 April 1982
    * "Calling Doctor Herbie" - original air date: 14 April 1982
    * The Love Bug (1997) made-for-TV movie

The first Herbie film, The Love Bug, was inspired by the book Car, Boy, Girl written by Gordon Buford in 1961.

A similar series of five German movies called Superbug also starred a Volkswagen beetle.

"Superbug"?  Apparently the actual German title is Ein Käfer geht aufs Ganze, which is translated by the internet to mean "A bug goes on the whole".  Superior film, no doubt.
