Notes

The registry is currently undergoing a transfer into the new software. The pages/years transferred to date are linked in the table below and in the navigation bar above. As a result of this major undertaking, the registry will be split between the old pages and new pages... apologies for this inconvenience until the transfer process is complete.

Those pages not yet transferred, as well as the registry form, can still be found on the old pages; please click the following link: original Registry pages.

* Listed production numbers are unverified at this time, but are close to the actual numbers, based on the VIN-splits on record. Karmann's published production number of total Cabriolets built is 388,522. ** Estimation based on a 6% annual loss of above-listed production numbers up to the year 2011. The total remaining is currently an estimated 23-33% of total produced. The 6% is an average based on published European registration figures over the past 20 years.
