I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder and all that....but Mr. Koenig really should've been shot for this monstrosity!

the 80's at it's best. I had a Koenig twin turbo Testarossa overtake me on the autobahn once. I was doing 120mph and it made me look like I was going backwards

Almost looks like it was done in someone's shed

You do have to wonder just what he'd been drinking to make him think that his creation was an improvement on the original! A mate had one of the last ones (Hi Line?) in dark metallic blue, it looked gorgeous. 
And speaking of BMWs, I owned one of these up until '96. same as the burgundy-coloured one....I really should've kept it. It had belonged originally to a member of the Saudi royal family who was hoofed out of the UK in the 60's for supplying cocaine in London - his diplomatic status saved him from prison - and I had a file of press cuttings from, I think, The Mirror, showing him with the car in Mayfair just before he left for home.
