The tale of the Volkswagen Beetle unfolds as a narrative of inspiration, notwithstanding its association with a less desirable historical figure. Conceived by Adolf Hitler and crafted into reality by Ferdinand Porsche, the Beetle emerged as an embodiment of affordable and reliable motoring for the German public. Porsche, renowned for sports cars and SUVs today, bestowed the Beetle with iconic lines, a simple air-cooled engine, and a practical interior – a car for the masses. With over 21 million units sold until its 2003 farewell, the Beetle underwent over a thousand improvements during its enduring production, starting from the original 1938 design. In 1948, Wilhelm Karmann transformed a VW Beetle sedan into a convertible, birthing the Beetle Cabriolet, later produced by Karmann in Osnabrück. Available today is a unique Super Beetle, the 1978 Volkswagen Super Beetle Karmann Cabriolet Champagne Edition II, boasting mainly original features and a modest 76,000 miles on its journey.
The resplendent 1978 Volkswagen Super Beetle Karmann Edition stands draped in a pristine Ancona Blue painted exterior with a white convertible top, a departure from the typical Beetle sedan configuration. Despite the transformation, this Beetle comfortably accommodates four adults, offering them the delightful experience of open-air motoring. Embracing its classic identity, the car features the iconic Beetle head and tail lamps, whitewall tires, steel wheels, side step rocker panels, and an abundance of charismatic charm. This practical classic extends an invitation for everyday drives, encapsulating the essence of timeless motoring. Step into the interior of this 1978 Volkswagen Super Beetle Karmann Edition to encounter a clean white ambiance, providing seating for four individuals. The mainly original interior exudes authenticity, with the trunk receiving a touch of new carpeting. Positioned at the front, the trunk aligns with the Beetle's distinctive design. Inside the cabin, a four-spoke steering wheel, wood-trimmed dash, push-button radio, and essential switches for ancillaries epitomize the Beetle's commitment to refreshingly Spartan motoring, minimizing distractions for an immersive driving experience.
Nestled in the rear of the 1978 Volkswagen Super Beetle Karmann Edition is a harmoniously tuned 1585cc flat-four engine with Bosch L-Jetronic Fuel Injection. Its air-cooled melody resonates through the characteristic dual exhaust, providing a delightful soundtrack to your drive. Power is channeled to the rear wheels through a 4-Speed manual transmission, allowing enthusiasts to relish the engine's character, forgiving its modest power output. Drum brakes on all four wheels, more than sufficient for this relatively lightweight car, complete the dynamic package, ensuring a harmonious balance between performance and driving pleasure.

While the Volkswagen Golf may seem relatively mainstream in the United States, it’s a big deal in Europe. That’s because when it debuted for the 1974 model year, it was seen as a modern, value-packed, front-wheel drive family car that was economical and more importantly, fun to drive. Then, Volkswagen introduced the Golf GTi in 1976 and created what we now know as the hot hatchback. The Golf remains on sale to this day, and there’s a variant that’s even hotter than the GTi in the Golf hierarchy. That variant is called the Golf R, which debuted with 2012’s seventh generation.
