Picture dated May 2008



The Volkswagen Karmann Ghia is a sports car by Volkswagen. The Karmann Ghia combined the chassis and mechanicals of the Type 1 (Beetle) with styling by Luigi Segre of the Italian carrozzeria Ghia, and hand-built bodywork by the German coach-builder Karmann.

The car was available in 2+2 coupe (1955–1974) and convertible (1957–1974) body styles

It was the most expensive VW available, the fastest, and the most luxurious. It was fitted with such standard equipment as a cigar lighter, an electric clock, locking steering column, front & rear vent windows, variable wiper controls and a luxurious interior. It also had the distinction of being the only VW fitted with built in fog lights and to have the option of an electrically operated steel sliding sunroof.

445,238 cars were built in Germany, and a further 41.689 in Brazil
