Vehicle Description
Offered for sale is a stunning previously restored 1973 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia, a true icon of automotive styling that beautifully blends Italian-inspired coachwork with German engineering. Draped in a striking red exterior, this classic turns heads everywhere it goes — a testament to the timeless design penned by Carrozzeria Ghia and hand-built by Karmann craftsmen in Osnabrück. The sleek, flowing bodylines, low-slung hood, and signature curved roofline make it one of the most elegant and distinctive shapes ever to emerge from the Volkswagen family.
Inside, the black and creme interior provides a bold, classic contrast to the vibrant red exterior, giving the cabin a sporty yet refined feel. The Karmann Ghia's intimate cockpit is a wonderful place to experience vintage motoring, with its straightforward, driver-focused layout that reflects the honest simplicity of the era. Powered by Volkswagen's dependable air-cooled flat-four engine, this is a car that rewards enthusiasts who appreciate character and craftsmanship over raw horsepower. Whether you're a seasoned collector or a first-time classic car buyer, this 1973 Karmann Ghia is a rare opportunity to own a piece of automotive history.
The 1973 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia is equipped with a 1.6-liter air-cooled flat-four engine, which produced roughly 46 horsepower (net) in US-market models. While earlier models often quoted higher gross horsepower figures, 1973 models were rated with less power due to a change in ratings from gross to net figures and smog regulations.
Key 1973 Karmann Ghia Specs:
Engine: 1585cc (1.6L) Flat-Four
Horsepower: ~46 hp (net)
Top Speed: Approximately 82–90 mph
The 1973 model was known for being slow but stylish, featuring a 2+2, 2-door coupe, or convertible configuration that used the same drivetrain as the standard VW Beetle of that year.
