In the US, it's a rare sight to see a Karmann Ghia at all let alone spot a Karmann Ghia for sale, which explains part of its allure with collectors. Manufactured by Volkswagen in Germany between 1955 and 1974 and in Brazil from 1962 to 1975, there weren't many made.
There were 445,238 built and sold total through the German manufacturing plant while 41,689 rolled off the assembly lines in Brazil. That's less than half a million KGs in the entire world, and more than 35 years since Volkswagen manufactured the last one, these numbers have dwindled markedly.
Designated the Type 14 internally, the original Karmann Ghia for sale was a 2+2, meaning that it had two primary front seats as well as two smaller seats for occasional passengers, such as children, in the rear. It was also available in three body styles.
Volkswagen imported both the coupe and the cabriolet convertible models from Germany to the US and other parts of the world. Brazil was the only country to have the KGs manufactured locally. It was in Brazil that Volkswagen developed the Karmann Ghia TC.
The TC version of the Karmann Ghia for sale was a Brazil-only sportier version of the standard KG manufactured between 1970 and 1975. Volkswagen in Brazil intended it to compete with the ever-popular Porsche 911, at least in aesthetics. However, the TC did not find success, and the model was short lived.
During that 5-6 year run, Volkswagen manufactured 18,119 total Karmann Ghia TCs. Volkswagen never exported them outside of South America, so that makes them coveted by collectors today worldwide. It is very rare to find one outside of the Americas. They do make an appearance from time to time at North American auto shows.
Due to all of this rarity, a neophyte enthusiast might expect the classic KG to cost the proverbial arm and leg, but that isn't necessarily the case. The problem is finding one, but that rarity hasn't inflated the prices, so the KG makes for an excellent introduction into the world of classic cars, if one can get your hands on a specimen.
Volkswagen has earned its legendary reputation for reliability and durability, but the collector should not assume that this makes the KG an "easy" classic car. On the contrary, KGs have all of the problems and work requirements that come with any classic car. As with any classic car purchase, it's important that the enthusiast enter the venture with their eyes wide open.
As much as it is like all classics, the KG is also very much something unique. It's a hand-built specialist automobile, for which design was precise and parts were handpicked. Essentially, Volkswagen took the VW Beetle, and gave it to the Italians in order for them to add that sexy je ne sais quoi.
For the collector this translates into an interesting dynamic. Parts for the Karmann Ghia are not easy to come by, but in many instances, they are analogous to the Beetle parts of the time. In these cases, one can use the Beetle part with very little modification. In circumstances where this isn't the case, the collector should be prepared for part-hunting process.
With right amount of time and energy, the KG is a fantastic classic car investment. It provides the enthusiast with the full range of memories from hunting for that Karmann Ghia for sale to hunting for the right parts to make it go. Nothing quite compares to the feeling of driving that fully restored Karmann Ghia for the first time.
