This is in Brazil for those wondering.

I was curious because the look of that lady and her car doesn't look like Germany to me, more like S. CA in the 80s.


Yes in Brazil. The Karmann factory is now just a shell. There was a Brit several years ago who said he was going to restart production of the KG in that factory. He had a lot of social media interest from crack smokers who thought it should happen. All he produced was a Photoshopped picture of the Bader Racing Porsche Ghia. I called him out on it...I was right. Laughing

The car is a Brazil model and judging from the blurred outline of the car flashing by, likely this photo is from the current millennia so doesn't strictly qualify for the vintage photo thread. Nonetheless, the photo seems to have been made on film, the Brazilian factory is historical and both of those are vintage enough for me.

I found a series of photos of that Ghia with the strange paint job. Looks like it spent time in Italy..

I saved them off from eBay but no exact location was listed.
Probably some estate sale find...
