Is Karmann part of the name? |

Well, Karmann is the factory that built this version of the Cabriolet. Originally (since 1946) there were two coachbuilders that produced Volkswagen convertibles: Hebmüller (2-seater, Typ 14) and Karmann (4-seater, Typ 15). The Hebmüller factory burned down in 1949 and never really recovered. The Hebmüller Cabriolet was discontinued in 1953. But I don't know wether 'Karmann' was used in the US-name officially. |

A five-star car in a music video? You are not serious, are you? Is this car singing, or what? Five stars should be used if either the film circles around this car, like the Peterbilt in Duel or the Ford T in Perfect Day or else the car is cult, like the De Lorean in Back to the Future 1,2,3, the Cadillac in Ghostbusters, Ferrari in Magnum, P.I., etc. In the second case the car should get four stars minimum for it's appearance in the film. Else the Land-Rover 101 FC customized for Judge Dredd would get five stars, as it it probably better known than the film itself! |

If I remember well it was said that the song was about the car, but I am also a little septic about 5-star video clips cars. |

And I'm still septic about the word Karmann being part of the name... |

Hope it's not a sepsis but rather scepticism on your behalf ... I agree that adding Karmann is not necessary. |

Es wäre um vieles einfacher gewesen, wenn man hier Deutsch als die gängige Sprache gewählt hätte... ![]() |

Da hast Du recht! Vielleicht sollten wir das einfach einführen ... ![]() |
