If the Manhattan Motorcars One:1 is finished and imported in time I don't see why it wouldn't be at the New York Autoshow. That would be late march. Car should be finished in time, and the dealer will have a large display, would be great P.R.

If they don't make the autoshow there will be an unveiling of the car at the dealership, date is sometime in early 2015

Fus car #107 is probally accounted as the first of the 4 chinese cars, and I would expect it to return to China, while the original german car is now the car going to the U.S, wich has been mentioned several times. Curious to know if it's sold or not. #106 is the one going to Dolan in Monaco.

Confirmed by both the president of Manhattan Motorcars, Jens, and CvK, the U.S will most certainly be getting a One:1, it will be the final one produced, and at the time, was the only unsold car. I haven't talked to the dealership in a few weeks, but last I heard it was awaiting a buyer. Koenigsegg said they would be screening buyers to make sure it ended up in the right hands.

Hey Dave,

I should be there with a buddy, not 100%. I will be at Stockholm for the flag off on the 24th for sure though. Would be nice to meet you :)

Also LH is only doing the Copenhagen-Amsterdam leg or something like that. He will be there only for a day. Would be sick if we can spot him at Koenigsegg though.

Fingers crossed we see each other soon!

^ personally the car im most excited about is the F50, haven't seen one in 10 years!

#084 and #110 is attending Vmax200 today, will be very intresting to see what they can achieve :)
CCX clocked 211mph at the speedtrap, LaF 210mph, P1 209mph and Veyron 224mph if i'm not mistaken.

Seems they have a Zonda there as well!

Place your bets/guess before the times is official!

I think the Agera N should be able to do a 220+ in the dry, the One:1 should be able to top that touching 230? depending on the guts of the driver and the length of the track? .. and oh the Zonda.. should be able to match the CCX, or? My guess is 200

They seem to have changed the course since last year. Last year they had a straight with a large u-turn so they could have a rather high entry speed into the main straight, now they only run the main straight meaning slower speed. Major disadvantage for the eggs due to standing start rather than a flying start into the main straight. We already know that with a flying start a 918 is no match for an Agera thank's to Gustav and Grip magazine ;)

For comparsion, with a flying start Paul B managed to do 209mph in the P1, with a standing start 195mph.
