Not too many as of now

However I have riding in one Koenigsegg CCX in Monte Carlo and I have also visited the factory several times. Here Christian on Koenigsegg shows off the car at the Koenigsegg airport.

If you have any question just let me know.

Wow, gorgeous,. just gorgeous!

When I had my ride in a Koenigsegg CCX in Monte Carlo by the owner (who have had a CCR as well) he told me he races a Porsche Carrera GT on the Spanish freeway to around 300 km/h and it didn't stand a chance- Any nice encounters yet?
