This is a very old one. The quality of the footage is poor, but still it's funny to watch!

This is not a beetle commercial, but since it's vw AND vintage AND aircooled, I guess you won't mind!

  • This car was designed by Ghia Studios in Italy. Most likely they put them on because it just doesn't look right not to have a grill in the front, so they figured out how to make use of them which they did with some fresh air vents.

  • because it ducts air for air conditioning

  • 1) Styling. 2) interior ventilation. 3) front compartment ventilation; the gas tank was in there and it originally had no external filler. Horns were not the reason; the KG has a separate opening for the horns way down low on the front end.

  • if you ask me i would say more then likly Germen ..don't ask how i know this i am Canadian ..i know this from meeting Germen people

  • lol a guy woth a nother video told me it was for defoging the windows that you trun that vent on ..thanks for you idea

  • Styling and the horns probably behind one of them, the older bugs had 2 and behind one of them was a horn, the other just to make the car look better.

  • i don't get why these cars have a front grill ..it haves the motor in the rear .its air cooled ....so why does it need the front grill

  • im lovin these brazilian commercials

  • Friends,this is a brazilian ad,spoken in portuguese,telling that "only human hands could do these special lines of the Karmann-Ghia"...We had them produced here,on a different assembly line (by Karmann-Ghia of Brazil,very close to VW plant,at São Bernardo do Campo-São Paulo),from 1962 until 1976,though this model was made until 1971.

    I used to live very near these two car makers,and it was soo good to see them fresh new,waiting for delivery...

  • Good video, I liked the drums is this one! What language was that?
