The public's response to the car's introduction was so positive that production doubled shortly thereafter and the Karmann Ghia quickly became one of America's most imported vehicles. In all, early half a million were manufactured during the car's nearly 20 year production run.
The Karmann Ghia's last year of production was 1974, t which point it was replaced by the Volkswagen Rabbit in the U.S market. But the car's lengthy production run, eliable underpinnings, nd striking styling ensure the Karmann Ghia can be recognized in virtually every town in America. It also enjoys strong appreciation amongst collectors.
