Koenigsegg One:1
 
Can't wait to see the numbers on this when it is released. Pretty groundbreaking and an actual production car that should beat the Bugatti if they got access to a proper testing facility to do it

If you watch some of their production videos they aim them to be manageable, daily derivable cars based around the customer. They have ski and kayak racks they make for their cars for gods sake haha.

Its almost comical, but I have far more respect for koegnisegg than most any other supercar company especially because they produce EVERYTHING in house out of a single warehouse that used to be a WWI airplane hanger. Hence they reason why they have a spooky ghost on the back of all their cars.

You are correct, The ghost comes from the F10 Angleholm squadron which had the ghost as it insignia. The Koegnisegg emblem is based on the family coat of arms dating back to 12th century AD after a family member was knighted by the Roman Empire.

The CCX holds the highest speeding ticket in America at 242mph in a 75. Happened during the gum ball rally. I will own one some day.
