The Konigseder Opel GT

The Austrian tunner Konigseder took a good look at the Opel GT and decided that it is just not good enough so the magic started.They’ve slaped a modified front spoiler and an aileron that looks excelent on the back.What you can’t see is the 3 level adjusting KW susspension and the 2 litre turbo engine that has 36 more HP,reaching 300.

The 20 inch rims have been especially chosen to reveal the cool brake discks.

Unfortunately Konigseder did not release any more information so that’s all I can tell you…
