Koenig-Specials, founded by Willy Koenig, initially gained recognition for his racing exploits with Ferrari road cars. With Enzo Ferrari’s blessing, Koenig honed these cars for racing success, later becoming a leading figure in tuning and refining sports cars for the road.

During the 1980s and 1990s, Koenig’s influence extended across the supercar landscape. Their modifications transformed vehicles like the Ferrari 348 into formidable beasts, often pushing the boundaries of practicality.

One notable example is this 1990 Ferrari 348 TS model which was modified by Koenig into a special model called F48. It has been outfitted with twin turbos, significantly boosting its 3.4-liter V8 engine’s power output to 520bhp and overhauled the car’s appearance, giving it a rear end reminiscent of the iconic F40.
