==Description==
This is a highly customized version of the real car - the Karmann Ghia (1955 - 1974) as the standard version had no air scoop or spoiler and was promoted in a memorable TV ad as "the cheapest European sports car available", and then, as the car bounced backwards off a paper banner strung across the road, a message appeared saying, "The cheapest. Just not the most powerful." The car has one of the most elegant coupé bodies ever designed, placed atop a minimally-modified VW Beetle chassis and engine.

This die-cast model is a highly customized version of the real car. It features an air scoop and a large rear wing. The air scoop section of the roof and wing is removable, revealing the engine. A roll bar is added for the safety of the driver. On the underside of the model, the gearbox and front suspension are seen. Due to the removable part (making this model consist of five parts instead of four), it has only been released once in the basic line.
