Very rare option
« on: August 20, 2016, 19:17:37 »
While at the Legends of the Autobahn concours this weekend, I saw a 112 coupe with a VERY rare option. The factory spec radio telephone.
I did not get a chance to try to make any calls, but it was way cool. This is the first time I had seen one in the wild.

Holy cow, I can't believe they actually used a rotary phone.  Even the very early Motorola cell phones, which I can still remember using, had key pads.

Mind you, even Get Smart had a rotary phone in his shoe.
