Ghia are well-known for their car design, especially for deluxe models in the Ford range, but did you know they also designed a typewriter too? The nice but somewhat curious Smith-Corona GT has Ghia (and thus automotive) styling. This is a typewriter with go faster stripes and pieces of rubber on the trim including the carriage return lever. When you open the case (which carries the Ghia badge like a proud owner's Ford Grenada Ghia) you get the smell of rubber!
Although rather plasticky the typewriter works pretty well, the Q key sticks when used but other than that there are not any other problems to report. It is the typewriter i am currently using for my touch typing practice. The ribbon was recently changed, this was a much more fiddly (and inky finger dirty) job than usual.
