Porsche Tapiro Gullwing

The Tapiro is a one-off prototype designed by the great Giugiaro. It was based on the Porsche 914/6 and debuted at the 1970 Turin auto show.

To me, it's like a combination of the Countach, Mangusta, and the Datsun 126X.

After the show, a Spanish industrialist bought it. Terrorists then blew it up to protest his labor practices. Now that's a crime against humanity.
