    Edit: ten ten would bang.


    probably inappropriate to say that in a female OPs thread, but damn, that car is gorgeous.

    "The 2026 Karmann Ghia is a concept car, meaning it's a design study that may or may not be produced in the future."

    That said - it is kinda hawt.

    Looks great, and I am 99.999% sure nothing close to that gets produced.

    That’s all AI. Half the time the name isn’t even spelled correctly.

    I watched the whole thing and IMO they did get the look of the body right, I had a 74 ( the last year) which was really just a 1600 VW with a sleeker looking body, it wasnt any faster it didnt handle any better the interiour wasnt any more comfortable I could take it or leave it SO a guy really wanted to buy it so I sold it to him, it wasnt in bad shape but it caught fire a couple of days later he was not too happy but hey he wanted it

    I figured it was a restomod based on the first image, seemed to good to be AI. But video definitely seems AI, the car changes part way through....

    As does the voice's accent, going back and forth from British to American. Plus jarring, weird pauses. And WTF was the final 3 entire minutes just repeating the same views??Cool concept, lousy media quality control.

    Yeah don't quite get why they use AI for the narrative. Also if you watch the video closely you see Karmann Ghia spelled several different ways on the exterior and interior of the vehicle. Sloppy work but cool concept.

    Meh. I'm way more excited about the properly squared off hatch on the 2026 RAV4.

    Remember when VW sold Wagons?

    When I was a kid, I fell out of my aunt's Ghia BITD when she went around a corner in it. Apparently the doors had a problem staying closed. I'd rather they remade the "Thing".
