I think it was a one-off built by one of the major Greman tuners - my guess would go to Zender

No reaction... Should we run through the German tuners one by one? How about Rinspeed, then?

Sorry Guys, I´ve been in the Alps for more than a week, watching Hitler´s Eagle´s Nest at the Obersalzberg from the other side of the great Königssee in a little hut at Watzmann mountain.

And I´ve got to admit - I immediately began to forget anything around - now I´m back.

So, there was a company modifying the little NSU TT´s in the 60´s and 70´s and preparing them for hillclimbs etc.

I´m not really sure if it was exactely the same company that tried to built a Supercar in the early 90´s but it has got the same brand name.

You might find out the "name" of the car itself, too.

There was only one built. It is told it was capable to do 325 km/h and had 340 HP.

This is it!

I saw it live at the 1993 IAA Frankfurt Auto Show. Really impressive.
