    As far as I know there were around three cars official made, but only the green one still exists.

    Two more pics:

    I would bet that it will be at the Concorso Italiano in California this year - as the featured car is the Lamborghini Miura...

    Definately not its most handsom. A combination of poor colour choice and bad photography makes it look positively repulsive.

    Any idea on what thinking was behind the choice of "Duck Sh*t Green"?
    Thanks for all the fish

    Original car was soon sold to the ILZRO, the International Lead and Zinc Research Corporation. They decided to reconstruct the car using their own metals and technology, to show it on various auto shows and display the use of their metal alloys.

    Bertone did the reconstruction. They usually used bright colors and contrasting black detail work on the prototype, but this car now featured chrome details, and was finished in a metallic green sprayed over a black metallic base giving a strange dark green pearl like color, with a contrasting brown suede upholstery.

    I think Koenigsegg is Swedish for: "Oh no, my head's just exploded!"
