In the 1980's, if a car had over 400 horsepower, that was a LOT. Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Porsche all made cars that could go fast, but not by today's standards. Then Willy Koenig went nuts on a Ferrari Testarossa, reinforcing the engine, adding turbochargers, intercoolers, and the widest of body kits (designed by Vittorio Strosek). Only 21 Koenig Competition Evo Twin-Turbos were built, but even driving one today, 35 years later, you can understand the appeal. At four times the price of a standard Testarossa, this is the wildest Ferrari tuner car of all time!

They did a beautiful 512 BB and a 1000 hp Countach. I remember them as having a supercharger that made boost up to 4500 rpm plus the twin turbos. Mind blowing cars to a kid in Australia.

It's been a long time since I've been around this scene, but years and years ago there was an unassuming garage in a field in North Texas that specialized in Ferrari restorations. In the 90s and 2000s, the guy running it often went under the moniker 'Ferrari Bob' and had a penchant for turbocharging Testarosa blocks well north of 1,000hp. I'd forgotten most of what he said about what made those blocks so durable, but if you were going to stuff the gills of a Ferrari V12 with boost, that was the one to source. Round about that same time, you could land a TR for about $27k that was probably in need of an engine rebuild anyway. That all said, the TR-F40 hybrid appearance of this one is magic in a bottle. With the looks to match the bite, I wouldn't turn one down either.

Such a rad car. I saw one in the flesh in Japan outside a hotel I was staying at way back... probably early 2000s. Got a snap of it somewhere

One of my all-time dream cars! In many ways, it looks like the F40’s big brother. I really wish these body kits could be made again using lighter materials.

I thought this was a kit car at first as I have never heard of this insane Koenig creation prior to this video. Learned something today! Thanks!

Koenig was THE Ferrari tuner back in the day and I spent some time at his shop and the things they were doing were way ahead of any aftermarket back then. He was making a billet 5 liter 4 cylinder to make 2000hp when I was there many years ago. Haltech was across the street from his shop.

Couple things on mr könig: was german mountain champion in 62 and invited by enzo himself to honor the achievement of doing that in a tiny little berlinetta. And he‘s raced in le mans, including prototypes, which nobody let‘s you do if all you bring is enthusiasm and a bit of money. Man could drive. And america is chock full of dudes who built cool stuff without studying at a university, many of which have been in videos on this very channel, why we gotta say „hopefully smarter people than koenig worked on the car“, that dude had nothing but cars on his mind for 26 years by the point this car came out. Unexpected insult of a man who built wild shit like this.

Boy, oh boy. When that thing builds boost, even I'm terrified and I'm not even sitting in it! I'd love to drive this on the Autobahn once, just to cruise along at 60mph, 1500 to 2000 rpm, step on it and slowly let it build boost and push me forward faster and faster. Must be a hell of an experience!
