Everytime I see this car, my heart does a little pitter-patty thing.



But wait. Those rims look a little...overkill...for a 60-hp restored Ghia...



HOLY SHNIKEYS!

The Karmann Ghia is probably one of my all-time favorite cars, though I prefer the pre-1960 version with the blades instead of the grills.

But that one is fucking gorgeous! Asten Martin eat your heart out!

Right now, I'd just be happy to get my hands on ANY Ghia...I wouldn't be picky about year...

That's the one I like!!

'nuff said

I gotta say, I've always kinda had a thing for whale-tails, too. Must've been overexposure to all the lead paint in my HotWheels as a child...




This car is as old as I am. I wish I still looked this good...

Americans know the (now no longer) holden monaro as the Pontiac GTO. This is the HSV (holden special vehicles) version of it. So it's like monaro but better.

my dad had two of those ghia thingys back in the day... BC as he would say (before children) One broke down and he sold it.. the other he traded for a trumpet.... we have pictures of em somewhere... they were pretty

Mmm, Lotus Exige...

The Karmann Ghia is one sexy car. And I'm not a car guy at all.

One of my Dad's friends used to have a fire-red one that he drove until the floor rusted out. Poor thing...

THIS IS NO EXCUSE TO STOP DRIVING ONE! NO!

Korri, if you find those pictures, and they are in a web-shareable format, please to make with the postening...

DARK REALM: Have you seen the Top Gear review of the Exige? Holy mackerel...what The Stig does with that thing...

What I would give to live on THIS street...


Beee-utiful...

Second last golden one is dope.
Who is the genius behind these cars?

Apparently, Chip Foose. But it was formally a Plymouth / Daimler-Chrysler product, and quite possibly the only "American" car I've ever seriously wanted to own. I nearly wept when I heard that they were being discontinued...

I heard on the news last night that our defence force was selling its old tanks to the public

My favorite things on wheels is the 787.

I have an undying, unhealthy desire to own or build one of these...




"Christine" wasn't really a Fury, at least not in the movies. She was 23 Plymouth Belvederes, Furies, and Savoys, all painted and customized to a trim level and colour that was consistent across none of them. Apparently it's easiest to start with a '57 or '58 Belvedere, since it's got the little chrome winglets and the right style of bumper, but ya gotta get the red/white paint job and red/black interior as custom jobs.

There are four of the "original" Christines left, all in private hands - one of them is for sale (completely restored from being a stunt car) to the tune of 189,999USD. Yowza.

this is my angel:









I wannit. bad.

Oh man. MAN. Matt. You need this.

I just found a Japanese company that will take a modern BMW and overhaul it into a retro monster. Start off with a BMW Z3, put it through the Dusen Bayern Mystar machine, and it will spit out a Mercedes 190 SL.

I can only imagine what this could would be like to drive with an M donor...






GORGEOUS.
