Takes great care of local customers, fucks everyone else. Hm, that might hit a little close to home on this board, doesn't it?

Someone can't tell sarcasm...

Yet again, i still think there should be a rule for purple for sarcasm.

I think Koeingsegg needs to due a run now... everyone wants to see it, and if this can hit 270, there is now way the Agera R (with it's way better aero) shouldn't be able to..

Give Koeni a 3-4 mile long straight in Nevada or let it run at an Edwards Airforce base for 30 minutes, and they you go, new world record

Ah, no, definitely hard to tell sarcasm on the 'net. Back when I was on GenCoupe we'd write anything sarcastic in pink. Purple's close 'nuff though.

Very little respect for this company, their business models are sketchy at best. But still, fast is fast and that is very fast.

I give you the car that will ass rape the Venom GT... in every catagory



The official Koenigsegg One:1, 1342hp of pure insanity, uncontrollability, violence and swedish brutality. Humbling the Germans, Brits, Italians and Americans in a quest for the "how fast can one go"... all while looking beautiful

Look up their production history, service, and 'innovation'.
