1980 Ferrari 512 BB Koenig Special Is Pure 1980s Excess | Carscoops carscoops
There were very few companies or people brave enough to modify a Ferrari back in the day, but one of the most successful to do so was Koenig, which would add more wildness to Maranello’s models.
Koenig is a German tuning house founded by Willy Koenig, who was an accomplished race car driver in his own right. He started the company in 1977 with the aim of makinga “proper sportscar” again after he was dissatisfied with the performance of a 365 GT4BB that he purchased. This particular 1980 512 BB carries just 57,629 kilometers from new, and received a recent service in April 2022 by Ferrari specialist Dario Saurer, comprising of a general tune-up as well as a new timing belt and a shifter adjustment for the overhauled gearbox. The unrestored vehicle is in fairly good shape inside and out, carrying only a minor amount of stone chips and worn leather.
