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
Is there a One:1 for U.S.? In the L'AUTOMOBILE SPORTIVE article (factory visit September 17), they mention UK (BHP), Germany (Fu) and Monaco (Dolan). Nothing about U.S.
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.
Will the Stockholm Lifestyle Motorshow between January 22-25 house any Koenigseggs? I did try to get in touch with them with no reply. Would be worth the trip if someone could confirm
I also notice the carbon fiber section on the bonnet is bigger now more "Trapezoidal" rather than "Tapering" not sure if its my taste either but this is just a render so lets wait Loving the color though.
I'm fairly certain that is just an artist rendition for the poster, it will serve as a large attraction for the show no doubt. The RS was never even discussed as coming to the show. It was between the One:1, or the Regera the whole time, and still is.
Gumball 3000 is making a pit stop at the factory this year again, between 13.00-17.00 May 25th!
Good opportunity for CvK to sell Lewis Hamilton a car
Me and a friend are planning on following the rally from Gothenburg to Ängelholm if all goes to plan! Would be fun to meet some of you there if anyone plans on going
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.
^ 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.
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.
