Very rare 1971 Karmann Ghia Before I start describing this beautiful Karmann Ghia, let me just say that of all the cars I ever owned including a great 911 Porsche 4S, this Karmann Ghia has been the most fun drive I ever owned. Every time I take it out on the road, I get at least 5 people shouting "great car" or giving me thumbs up or just commenting on the car when I am parking it. It seems everyone have their own Karmann Ghia story, used to own one or knows someone who did. What I'm trying to say, this car turns heads and gets a lot of very cool attention. The car runs great and could become your daily drive. I used it about once a week when I go to play golf. It has a really good mpg mileage - I am always surprised how little gas this consumes. All the controls on the dashboard work except for the clock. Radio and CD work well. Engine runs great. Comes with a fire extinguisher. The car has minor rust in a few places, pretty much what you'd expect of a car that's over 40 years old. I have recently had a new layer of undercoat done to protect the car from rusting, also it has new breaks. The odometer stopped working, currently shows 31,368 miles. For some reason the "drive type" and "body type" category in the above description gets automatically populated with "U/K". I want to underline that this is a regular car with the steering wheel on the left side (please see pictures). I invite you to contact me with regards to any questions you may have about this auction. Also, if I missed any angle on the photos, please let me know and I will take additional pictures. Winning bidder has 24 hours to send $500 through Paypal and seven days to pay the balance - cash or cashier's check accepted. The car is based on Maui in Hawaii. The winning bidder will need to arrange their own shipping but I will help with delivering it to the port. The easiest way is to put it inside a container and ship to the Los Angeles or San Francisco area (usually around $1000). In case the winning bid exceeds $17,500 I will cover the shipping costs to a port in continental U.S. or Japan. This vehicle is sold as is, where is with no warranty, expressed written or implied. Any descriptions or representations are for identification purposes only and are not to be construed as a warranty of any type. It is the responsibility of the buyer to have satisfied themselves as to the condition of the vehicle. Please be sure you have the funding ready when bidding. I have a clean title. I want to thank you for viewing my auction and wish you good luck bidding. I truly hope this car finds a great new home. In a few years, it will become a classic worth a lot more....
