The Karmann Ghia was marketed by Volkswagen as a 2+2 coupe and convertible combining the straightforward chassis and
mechanicals of the Type 1, evocative styling by the Italian carrozzeria Ghia, and hand-built bodywork by German
coach-builder Karmann.
The combination proved instantly successful for VW; production doubled soon after its introduction, and the Karmann Ghia
became the most imported car in the U.S. Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_Karmann_Ghia
