Default Who can tell me more about this car??

I had this poster on my wall as a kid growing up and always loved this car.
What was the story with this car? Was this a production model or a one-off?
Any information or additional photos would be greatly appreciated.

That's gotta be some sort of Gemballa or Strosek model. But I don't have anything to offer beyond that.

Definitely from the good 'ole days of Miami Vice!

I think B&B made 930's with the 928 headlights back in the 80's. I don't think there's any relation to B&B exhaust but maybe there is.

I think it is a Werks version called a 938? A.I.R. has a version as well.

That was made by a company called rinspeed. It was designated the 939 by that company. I used to know somebody who owned one.

Thank you for the info.
I do recall it being called 939 (911+28 Headlights ??)

Another Question is this the first Flauchbau?
