Classic VW Cabriolet

The convertible edition of the original Volkswagen Golf/Rabbit outlasted the hardtop everywhere, expect in South Africa, where the hardtop was made 25 years after its discontinuation in Europe and North America.

 

The convertible - called the Rabbit in the U.S. originally and then renamed the Cabriolet in 1985 - was made until 1993. This is a model of late-eighties vintage, and it did in fact have New Jersey historic plates.

 

There was never a GTI convertible, but some models did have the GTI performance package.
