Volkswagen Karmann Ghia 1972

Introduced in the late 1950s, the Volkswagen Karmann Ghia was a unique blend of Beetle reliability and a body styled by Ghia and built by Karmann. Elegant, lightweight, and attainable, it became a European grand touring icon. By 1972, it was still winning hearts with its timeless lines and unmistakable classic charm.
