When Koenigsegg Does a Limited Edition, They’re Serious

By Ron

Isn’t it nice when the car-makers offer "special editions" where they spice up their cars with different wheels and other goodies so they can sell a few more? This practice is admittedly a lot more exciting when the subject happens to be an already-exclusive supercar. Koenigsegg has recently announced their CCX and CCXR limited editions, which, according to the company, are what their customers have been asking for. Both cars come with the Koenigsegg 4.8L dual-supercharged engine. They’ve been designed with more of a track bias when compared to the company’s standard offerings, with stiffer springs, a lower stance, and reset dampers. The body is made of clear-coated carbon fibre and the interior has been retrimmed with a host of goodies and gagetry. The CCX’s very limited production run will include all of fourteen cars, each producing 888 hp; the CCXR is even more exclusive, with production capped at six fire-breathing, 1018-horsepower vehicles. Get full specs at Koenigsegg’s website.

I love the look of the tinted windows and gloss black paint. 1018 HP? That is just insane. Forget Bugatti, this car has the speed AND the sexy looks.
