About the Karmann Ghia
The first Karmann-Ghia was introduced in Europe in 1955 and arrived in America as a coupe in 1956. The convertible soon followed in 1958. It cost $300 to $400 more than the coupe, but was sportier to convertible-loving Americans, for whom it initially was built.
The slick little car was sold through 1974. Sales totaled an impressive 387,975 cars. One of the most elegant cars I owned. A truly beautiful and timeless design.
4 Cylinders 2.4L! I sold this car because it was too loud and I was not able to install a car seat to drive with my daughter :-( I traded it with the 1977 911S that did not have neither 3 points seat belt at the back. So I sold the 911S too.
