    Mikey, since you threw it up there for us to see, I'm forced to turn away. :(:( It just doesn't work for "me". But you'll not hear me make a blanket statement like, "it's horrible or screwed, etc. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. And there is no right or wrong because it's all a personal perception.

    BTW, I do join you in loving the doors on your Smart ! :):)

    Cheers, Hankie

    Looking fast at it makes me think of a Pantera. 308 look better in stock form.

    There needs to be a qualification process to own a F-car and I'm thinking the redneck weighting should be high on the list.
    This person would of failed I believe!

    I can't imagine that it could be any other than the one you linked to, and the wheels are the giveaway. But the wing wasn't there during the Celebration show.

    Koenig cars were well regarded by many back in the 80's but their styling can be a love it or not sort of thing.

    Looks like the same car Wade, wide body 308.
    I'm sorry guys, but I fail to see the improvement with the Koenig kit on Ferrari's!
    It must be an 80's over the top wall street drug induced fling with having something different from the other guy but hey, to each his own!

    UPDATED: Found these 2 more pics, looks like same car without the WING! Honestly, doesn't look that bad, but I still prefer original over this.

    LOL, I remember those days.

    I agree. The 308 is perfect as is. However, Koenig did a nice job on a TR and 348.

    They weren't considered as art when they were new. And there's always some who will pay extra for "personalization". ;)

    HA! Based on these pics, one might say that a Testarossa is just a cheap copy of a Mondial!

    Excuse me while I run for shelter now!
