First off, let's check out the legendary Volkswagen Karmann Ghia. This handmade 2+2 coupe is the closest thing they'd get from a Porsche 356 despite not being a full-fledged sportscar. From its racy hand-finished body, bucket seats and 4-speed stick shift, tight road-handling suspension and its 7,000 US Dollar introductory price, it's east to be fooled into thinking that the Karmann Ghia is a sportscar, but in reality, it isn't. It's a lot more complicated than that. Under the bonnet lies a 1.5L flat-4, 4-stroke engine with a power output of 53hp, and with the mentioned gearbox, it's capable of just 82mph of top speed.
Lastly is the very rare Volkswagen Type 3 notchback, a much powerful, spacious, and luxurious alternative to the legendary Beetle. The notchback variant is by no means one of the rarest of the Type 3 body styles in addition of the fastback and the squareback station wagon. Early models were designated as the VW 1500 because of its 1.5L engine but later, the displacement's increased to 1.6L and renamed as 1600. They can be mated with either a 4-speed manual or a 3-speed automatic. This latter engine featured electronic fuel injection from Bosch.
Anyway, enough chitchat about these two VW legends because I went through different parts of the Horizon to sample these legends from the pages of Volkswagen's history books, Roll the tapes.
Enjoy these legendary VW machines when you got these from the latest FH4 update!
