VW SP 2, 1971-76. Made by Karmann Ghia do Brasil. Via volkswagen classic

Rudolf Leiding, the CEO of Volkswagen do Brasil initiated and designed the car. Despite its racy looks the model was targeting women, so his wife was the test person, optimising the car for a female driver. It was based on the old VW technology and never exported to Europe, mainly because the VW Scirocco was a successful launch there. Until 1976 around 10,000 were built. Helga Leiding took one of the SP2 back home to Germany.
