I don't understand the Ghia market. To me they seem way over priced compared to equivalent 914s. IMO, the 914 is twenty times the car the Ghia will ever be (besides John's work of art there).

Don't get me wrong. I've always liked Ghias. But it's just a rebodied bug with a small engine and crappy handling. In comparison, 914-4s should be selling for twice as much.

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/agree.gif) I like them too, but I agree. To add to it, there were way more Ghia's produced (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)

Can you say "cult" car?
