Volkswagen released the handsome Karmann Ghia model in 1955 as a sporty alternative to the practical and frugal Beetle. Nevertheless, the Karmann Ghia wasn't intended to be an expensive, fussy, and high-strung sports car. Instead, it offered the same level of dependable motoring as the Beetle. Unsurprisingly, over 500,000 were made; the bulk of which was built in Germany, but a small percentage saw birth in Brazil. This 1972 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia Cabriolet has reportedly been restored and bears 90,000 miles on its odometer. If you want an analog, no-frills, drop-top sports car that will fill your heart with joy without denting your wallet at the pumps, this is the way to go about it.
Exterior and Interior
Penned by famed Italian design house Carrozzeria Ghia, it's no surprise that this 1972 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia Cabriolet looks absolutely stunning in its dark green paintwork. It has a contrasting tan convertible top, period correct wheels, and reportedly sports new tires. All badging appears in place, including the stylized 'Karmann Ghia' script on the engine cover. Venturing into the car, you're greeted by a tan interior with two low-back seats in tan leather and Karmann Ghia embossed carpets in a darker hue. We also observe what appear to be aftermarket pedal covers, as well as an enhanced sound system with new speakers in the front footwells. The current owner reports that the head unit is Bluetooth capable, so you aren't totally cut off from the 21st century. Don't expect anything else, like air conditioning, power adjustable seats or electric windows; everything else is old-school. There's some space behind the seats for your luggage, as well as a front trunk or frunk.
Engine
Pop the rear engine cover and you'll find a 1,584cc Beetle engine merrily humming away. Volkswagen's air-cooled flat-four is one of the simplest and easiest to maintain, replete with its characterful engine note. You can tell a Volkswagen (usually a Beetle) is coming along just on sound alone. On this 1972 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia Convertible, its modest 60hp of power is sent to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission. The current owner reports the presence of two 500-amp boosters, and that the engine has received a recent tune-up.

The 70s were all about peace, love, and good times. One manufacturer who perfectly captured the times through mechanical symphony was none other than Volkswagen. A quick trip down memory lane and the range of machines leaving factory floors, which included the legendary Beetle and Karmann ghia gave its custodians the chance to explore peace and love with every drive out. Present today is the latter, and a great example of it as well.
