Cool. It's nice to see cars from other parts of the world. I dig the yellow notchback sedan and blue fastback.

Fabian, the front shot looks just like a Ghia, true. But this shot (if it's the same car) sure looks like something else. Especially the rear quarter window shape and c-pillars.
I think you've mistaken the word fastback for a Type 3 VW Fastback. Which is not what I meant. Cars other than VW have been making notch and fast shaped cars for years. I didn't mean Type 3... was just referring to the body shape.

That orange Bug is a trip... (probably due to lens distortion, no doubt) factory chop top with early U.S. bumper guards mounted on late brackets.
