Default Mercedes into Karmann Ghia

While I always liked the mildly retro quirky looks of the Crossfire there was room for improvement. Mainly, I appreciated the fact that I could own a fun little GT car on a budget. It's bad press only drew me closer. From it's "dog taking a dump" looks to it being Chryslers red headed step child were all bonuses for me. While I craved somthing more retro, I was content. Yet, sometimes I daydreamed about what I might do to it to better suit my tastes. In particular, the headlight, tailights, the grille, and those hood strakes. They belied my vision of a true GT car. Well, I saw this and it reminded me of what could be done if you really were motivated, and well, wealthy enough.
