Tokyo Auto Salon: Koenig Crown JZS150
This one is somewhere between kaido racer and bippu. I’d rather refer to it as the style Koenig created in the 80s.
The wild mix of awesome hood fins, side fins, side air intake, large wings and deep dished SSR Formula Mesh wheels just makes it an exceptional appearance at the Auto Salon!
Edit: it is a Crown JZS150

Back in the late 80s AMG was one of the baddest tuners around: with their bulky lowered Mercs they really showed how tuning is supposed to be done. Naturally another tuner of that era called Koenig made even more outrageous designs including the Koenig Testarossa which looked a bit more out of space than Doc’s Delorean time machine.
So naturally people stared copying the AMG and Koenig designs, including this beautiful Cedric 430:
Not only does it feature an enormous sharknose and lip, it also includes the typically Koenig side air intakes!
Seen from the rear it becomes apparent how ridiculously wide those rear fenders are! (more…)

Last weeks Mustang II brought some confusion, so I guess this Ferrari lookalike will bring on even more confusion:
Guess the Kaido Racer: a Ferrari??
Well, that’s a tough one!
But not to make it entirely impossible, another picture of the same car taken from a front angle:
Guess the Kaido Racer: a Ferrari??
Now what car is hiding under there??
