My friend and I drove his mother's white 1965 Karmann Ghia convertible from NY to Acapulco in 1967, when we were 18. The car was wonderful, although I had to get out and push a few times while climbing the Sierra Del Sud Mountains. It kept dry inside, and started again, even after it was flushed off the road in a torrential flood. The car was a champ. I am thrilled to see the revival, especially electric. I might visit the dealer today.
I remember driving my Dad's 1967 Karman Ghia from Simi Valley to Ontario Speedway to a concert-- Peter Frampton, Lynyrd Skynyrd & Black Sabbath. A month later I saw Elton John at Dodger Stadium. 1975 was a grand old year. It was a cool car to drive in for an 18 year old whippersnapper.
It's not even a concept car by Volkswagen. It's just a bunch of different AI images mushed together into a video. Each camera cut has different grills, lights, etc.
Pricey, but super looks. I wonder what the production unit will look like, and what the final price will be for the gas model(s). I owned a '69. Loved it.
If you hunger for a Porsche and can’t afford one, the Karmann Ghia offers the same sports coupe experience at a lower price tag! This beautiful revival of a classic sports car is sure to please everyone who has wanted to impress family and friends about their having made it. VW delivered the goods. A Karmann Ghia for the ages! 😊
I WAS HOPING FOR THE PRIMARY COLORS OF M&M'S. I LIKE THE ROYAL BLUE OR JUICY ORANGE GHIAS. WILL THERE BE AN OPTION FOR A CONVERTIBLE? IF SO, I WOULD LOVE A SHINY, JUICY GREEN WITH A TAN RAGTOP. OH THE POSSIBILITIES! I DREAMED THE DAY WOULD COME WHEN THE KARMENGHIA WOULD BE REMADE. THE ABOVE FRONT GRILL IS A LITTLE BIT OF NOISE FOR THE WINTER DRIVER. HOW MUCH WILL THIS COST? I LIKED IT WHEN IT WAS BUILT TO BE A JAZZED-UP ECONOMY CAR FOR MIDDLE CLASS CONSUMERS. I LIKE THE ORIGINAL IDEA OF THE GHIA BEING A SENSIBLE YET CLASSIER THAN MOST ECONOMY CAR LIKE THE VW BUG. THE ONE ABOVE IS TOO LOW. THAT IS NOT A REGULAR PERSON CAR. THAT IS A CAR FOR THE PERSON WHO LIKES TO THROW THEIR MONEY AWAY BECAUSE THEY HAVE TOO MUCH OF IT. THE TRADITION OF THE KARMANGHIA IS AN ECONOMY CAR FOR REGULAR FOLKS. LIKE THE VW BUG. THIS IS A DEMAGRAPHIC THAT IS STILL AROUND. IT IS A SIGN OF SENSIBILITY AND CLASS. STICK TO THE ORIGINAL SPIRIT IF THIS SPECIAL AUTOMOBILE. CLASSY MIDDLE-CLASS PEOPLE DO NOT WANT A RACE CAR OR A GREASER CAR. CLASSY MIDDLE-CLASS PEOPLE ARE STILL AROUND AND WE MISS OUR KARMENGHIA. US CLASSY MIDDLE-CLASS FOLKS MISS OUR BABY.
Can't you please not use all the trendy language in your presentation. "Eco friendly" ???? that phrase means nothing to me. Just tell us about the car in ordinary language. Leave out the corporate BS. Thanks....
Something doesn't smell right. Proto types usually don't show up with 4 or 5 different front and back ends. I think someone was having fun AI-ing. fantasy Ghia's. But then again, I might be an idiot. 🙃
Total Click bait.... The car does not exist in production form... If it does go into production, it had better have an ICE! EV's are simply virtue signaling. That being said, the Karmann model is better looking than the convertible
As an older car buff, I hate these useless TH-cam videos of nonexistent vehicles. I wished this was real, but, alas, it’s just AutomotiveHappyHorseShit.
I had a light blue '72 Karmann Ghia in college...loved it.
VW chassis, Italian body and these things were very iconic back in the day.

this car will never go into production !

Correct! With all the problems that VW is having in Germany, with layoff and plant closures. It will never happen, all bullshit!
@@paulbielaczyc Exactly, I keep forgetting that this channel is BS.
Magnifique transformation réussi ❤
Quien señaló que la perfección no existe ? ....... este auto es la perfección misma en lo más alto del diseño !!
Gotta burn gas. Looks awesome. I’m stoked!
I would love a gasoline model, can't wait to see it in person, my next car purchase.
Motor Trend Magazine lists all VW models for sale in 2025. No Karmann Ghia is on this list.
I love what I see and hear about this car. I’d prefer the gasoline version.
Pricey, but super looks. I wonder what the production unit will look like, and what the final price will be for the gas model(s). I owned a '69. Loved it.
I hate click bait. Fake cars. TH-cam needs to stop this
I hope it is real, was my 1st car, and always wanted one again!!!!
Close to 50 years ago I had old Carmen that was very good and wonderful and beautiful car red ❤️ color ❤❤❤
KarMan Ghia....
Example of great artistic concepts vehicle. Artist is very good at this endeavor.
These are beautiful, but waaaaay outta my budget!
It is lovely. I would like to see it.
So many differences in the pics they showed.
What does it really look like?
It actually looks like what is in an empty box. It does not exist and never will exist. It is a vapor that disappears with the morning sun.
How much 🤔
I choose the gas model and hope it will go to production. 😊
It’s about time

How many different BS AI versions do they want to show?
Click bait!
I would buy the gas model. At 40K it is affordable.
looks like vintage cars...how much?
AUTO IZ SNOVA..ALAL VERA...IMA SAMO JEDNU MANU....NIJE MOJ...😊.ZEMUNAC😊.
Not real. A long video to not show an engine

Manual transmission with gasoline engine!

To much money needs porsche fuch wheels and come in a convertible or sunroof.
Lo puedo arreglar y dejarlo más bonito..
Extra wide tyres don’t look right at all for classic look car.
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
AI garbage.
😁😂🤣 My '70 Karmann Ghia are getting a big laugh out of this AI BS.
I suspect this is AI generated...
AI BS. ??????????
This 2025 Karmann Ghia doesn't really exist yet. Just wishful thinking.
Total Click bait.... The car does not exist in production form... If it does go into production, it had better have an ICE! EV's are simply virtue signaling. That being said, the Karmann model is better looking than the convertible
More AI generated click bait, with a generic AI generated script that could apply to any concept vehicle.
As an older car buff, I hate these useless TH-cam videos of nonexistent vehicles. I wished this was real, but, alas, it’s just AutomotiveHappyHorseShit.
NOT a real car. Computer generated images.
Don't waste your money.
Ai much...
AI bullshit.
Nonsense...........
gas
Is This For Real?😂😅😊 2:53
VW has no Karmann Ghia for 2025.
The Original was so much better!
This is modern crap!
IA
Looks like a pregnant guppy.
Not real, not useful
All BS !!!
Since when do Italians make a German car ?????
