It's Perfect. Absolutely PERFECT.
I can smell the coke through my screen from this video lol. I mean this car is as 80s as Arnold, Stallone and Miami Vice. It’s a PROPER BEAST
Hahaha yeah it's legendary!
That delicious bitter taste and slight scent of petrol from the chemical process
I don’t like coke either. But I do love the smell 😂
Now I have to poop.
This is my faaaave video so far. This car is insane. Fully feeding all of my love for the 80s 😍
So niceeeeee 😍
The Murdermobile. Love the Testarossa, one of my favorite cars. And I did have this car on a poster in my room, but not on the wall. It was on the ceiling above the bed so I could look at it before going to sleep.
Haha yessss! Exactly where it belongs :D
"It's so loud you'll actually die" 😂👌
:D what an absolute monster
What a wonderful car from my childhood. So evocative
It's beautiful!
I actually think this is my favourite looking ferrari of its time
Me too!
You did it again. Another phenomenally good video.
The video quality, the sound quality, everything is on top.
What a shame you don't get as many views as you deserve.
Maybe try to hit the 10 min barrier so the CZcams algorithm will help you out. Uploading more regularly would help too but I get that it's time consuming to shoot this videos.
Love your content (especially the climbing)
Greetings from Germany 😁
Thank you so much man! It's still early days with this channel and I'm enjoying it regardless of the views. 🙏🙏🙏
Definitely the most enjoyable car to help film!
Haha yes! Thanks again man 🙏
Sounds awesome 🤪 top review James 😄👍
Thanks man!! Sounds so good but hurts a little 😂
Well done James 🤙🏽🇬🇧 filmed beautifully. Keep up the great work!!
Thanks Paul 👍😁
Thank you for sharing this beautiful, unique motor with us!!
More content please!!!!
I appreciate that, mate! Big road trip video coming soon in a sexy electric car :D
Brilliantly produced video of an absolutely stunning car.
Thank you!!
Good 👍 video
Koenig SPECIALS is something else
Thank you! Yeah, it's beautiful 😍
I know for sure that i wouldn't die but i would loose my mind if i saw and heard this wonderful beast of a car.
😂 it's soooo nice
So sick! And so loud you would actually die.
Production is top notch, top gear vibez 😮
Thanks man! 😁
Lol, yep I was about to quote this comment from the video!
Great showcase my friend! Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
Wow wheels and body kit really set it. For sure Koenig got it right with this one, unfortunately not so much with the 348.
OK now you leveled up to the best car channel on YT 😍
Haha thank you!!
So there was no engine work done to it? Its only a koenigs special exterior?
Yep, just the exterior/exhaust! I bet with the engine work it would be nuts 😂
Great review.
Thanks!
well done James
Absolutely stunning car and well shot video! Big up!
Thank you!
The car makes all the backgrounds look so fine
Haha yeah
Shame they dont make cars like this anymore. What a classic!
Big shame! A very special car 😍
Nothing as beautiful, especially anything build after the F355. Love the 80's type music as well. I wish I was my current age, my current financial situation and it was 1989 all over again.
Couldn't agree more!
Ah magical! I love the 80s vibe 😁 Of course the video itself not bad at freaking all 💯💣💥
Thank you!!
Amazing video! The car sounds amazing and Koenig Specials made some insane cars.
Thank you! Yes they did 😍
I remember a main topic with schoolmates was the Koenig conversion. And then there was OutRun.
Man it's so good!
Absolutely badass. Just brilliant this thing. I want one so bad.
It's so nice! Thanks for the comment 👍👍
Cool vidéo of an amazing car.❤❤❤❤❤thanks
The Koenig Testarossa Spyder was the most beautiful thing ever placed on 4 wheels.
😍😍
I have 2 Testarossas. That car looks and sounds great.. but other than the badge and spoiler there is nothing Koenig about this car.. I have the same BBS-LM in gold, same lowered stance, and also straight piped, and red, but with tan interior... Love the car, the videography and content, keep up the great work... looks like maybe I should get a Koenig specials badge. 😉✌️
Iconic.
So good!
it was a time the people here in munich near koenig says this car is ugly but the time say.......no way!!!!!the car is a beauty.
Crazy people 😂 this car looks so good. And the sound!!
This 512tr and the countach are my favourite 80s super cars
Yeah, such sexy cars!
@@JamesKingstonCars oh and I forgot porsche 959 lol, my top three of the 80s
As a person who would love to own a sports car one day but who is also 6'4" im glad to know im not that only one who suffers from the tall problem 🤣
...One of the for ever unicorns....These days...just getting only the rear wing made by Koenig for your Rossa...mission impossible...About year or two ago one of these Koenig Testarossas (dark gray with racing interior) but even turbocharged up to 800hp were for sale in DE or DEN ....for € 220k.....
Crazy!
@@JamesKingstonCars: no true, was for sale in denmark but belongs to a german when I remeber right. was sold to the states
The Koenig Evolution Testarossa, the top top one with 1000bhp+ was twin turbo and supercharged
This car looks like it has a spoiler and a badge, unless I'm missing something? 🤷♂️
I was just wondering , you weren't going more than 40mph in the New Forest were you!😊 Just a shame you couldn't drive it on an autobahn .
Nope, just making a lot of noise haha
Can you ask the owner what are those wheels? Brand size and offset? Along with the tire size?? Thank you very much
That exhaust sounds so fukin 👍
It's nuts haha
1000 PS biturbo
😀💪
😁👍
Great vid, just 1 detail Xj220 (1992, 212+ mph) fastest production car...
Thanks mate! Yeah, I messed up a few numbers but you get the idea 😂 I love the XJ220!
This wasn’t a “production car” remember the RUF yellow bird was faster. But not a production model.
@@vrcmf3172 the 1990 Callaway Corvette Sledgehammer (a twin turbocharged version of the standard 300bhp car) had 800bhp 772lbft 0-60 of 3.9 and a top speed of.......wait for it.........255mph!!!! The standard Corvette had a 0-60 time of 5.7 and a top speed of 163mph. Again, not a standard production car though, a tuner car similar (but way more agricultural and basic with zero thoughts into how an extra laggy extra 500bhp and 400+lbft over standard might completely change and utterly overwhelm the already backward car) but WAY more moronic than Ruf who actually put thought and effort into their complete car conversions. Most worrying of all is that these cars often ran standard suspension (leaf springs! Truly baffling in 1990 anywhere but the backwards US haha!) and standard brakes! In a car that now had a top speed nearly 100 mph higher! So a sports car already known for being way, way, WAY behind anything in the Japanese/European sportscar market of the time but with way more power and a considerably faster top speed than the future McLaren F1! Sounds like a recipe for an undriveable waste of time and money and a car that only the medically INSANE would even THINK about haha!
@@davekennedy6315 callaway wasn’t a production car. It couldn’t be sold in many US states let alone many parts of the world.
Wait for it 255? HAHA
RUF was a PRODUCTION car. Callaway was not
Production car. Also it hit 254.7 not 255
Still SLOWER-than 9ff 1 Of 5 GTR which hit 256.9 in 97.
@@davekennedy6315 also the callaway was no where close to a standard corvette.
The “sledgehammer” replaced the tub
Moved the engine even more back, took out all safety features. Also the callaway that hit 254 was not one you could buy. It went one way not 2 ways also removed mirrors so less drag.
“More importantly, only one Sledgehammer exists, and we reckon that makes it a unicorn in the performance car realm.”
Ya ONE car? I’ll take a brand that can meet all standards make a 3.2 liter go 225 any day of the week. The callaway also was prone to blowing rods no?
Fuckin' gorgeous.
Yup 😁
Is it real close to 1.000?
huh?
@@JamesKingstonCars: why you answer with huh? you know the engine has only the original horsepower, may be because of the exhaust a little bit more
@@romanoschwabel3716 he said 1.000 and didn't even mention bhp. I said in the video that it was the original horsepower with probably a tad more from the exhaust
this unit is Restomod ready. Nothing under 700whp. for the moment I claim that 1000hp are only in the german advertising... My senses doubt that this white Tr runs more than 450hp
1000bhp would be crazy in this car 😂
@@JamesKingstonCars honestly, it don't need 1ooo hp . 700hp maximum
on that car there in not much from koenig specials ! ! !
the rear wing ( no need because the testarossa itself is a wing ), the wheels/rims ( and even those are not koenig, another aftermarket ), an other exhaust ( looks and sounds like fuchs? ), the koenig specials sticker at the back
but still original engine, original brakes, not even a wide body ( so still original ), original suspension
I have since more than 15 years a koenig special competition, the only car with 1000 hp and narrow body ( so also the fastest car I think ), former the test car from willy and walter koenig. and that is a real koenig special car, not this what you now talk about
It's still nice :D I'd love to try a 1000bhp one haha
this is what video is for 🤌
