I take it this is their answer to Ferrari's FXX. I wonder if this will be a track only car as well? Any of you Euros going to be there? If so, take pics.

Come on Gustav - ask your buddy Patrick what this is all about....

MT JTN · 12th February 2006, 12:46

Can't wait!

Gustav · 12th February 2006, 18:20

Maybe it is a lightened sportier version?

Haha, good eye on the corner lights. That is an interesting detail.

Gustav, do you have planned dates to visit the show?

Just wondering if I'll be there at the same time. It would be nice to say hi.

In any event, the K-car will be wonderful to see in person. The Zonda too.

"Koenigsegg has announced plans to unveil new new 2007 CCX, also at the Geneva show. It will have 806 horsepower, weigh just 2200 pounds, and reach 62 mph in 3.2 seconds."

Not bad

Gop-Dogg · 14th February 2006, 03:06

So what did they remove from the car to get the weight down from 1180 kg to ~1000 kg?
