Is Koenigsegg the ultimate garage brand? Besides classic cars

>>14569098
I just assume their numbers are more limited than you might imagine. Plus you have to account for all the cars that have been crashed (probably 85%).
If I'm not mistaken, Koenigsegg have barely produced 200 cars in all their history.

>>14569098
Very limited production, combined with huge danger potential.

I'have seen one in the wild.

they look like shit and have no role in supercar market where aesthetics are everything. a porsche 911 turbos S accelerates faster than one, while looking way better.

Wat. Do people really wreck these on the track THAT often?

>>14571297
I think the reputation stuck after their CCX flew out of control on the Top Gear track.

Pagani?

>faster in any metric than any Koenigsegg

In what fucking world?

>>14571211
>911 turbos S accelerates faster
Nigger a One:1 would absolutely destroy a turbo s if it blew up both fucking turbos and was running on 7 cylinders.

Stop being a dumb cunt

m8 what is this supposed to prove?

>>14571819
If The Stig can't even handle one of those cars at the limit, I can see how they might get crashed often by the rich amateurs that buy them.

>no stability control
>rev limiter can be turned off
>spartan carbon fiber interior
>traditional manual transmission
It also just occurred to me that Koenigsegg is the hypercar manufacturer that Ferrari should be.

In what One:1?

You know, the one you buy

Go make one of those chinese billionaires an offer, you never know

>>14571964
Fair chance to beat the One to 60, and thats it. You're racing a different kind of breed.

Mind you this is with their 'slower', Agera R/S

God i love those videos

worst fanbase

I think they are a work of engineering marvel. I like the attitude behind their design. It's all functional and there for a purpose. The fact that it is still a beautiful car is amazing as well.

I'd also like to point out that the entire structure of the car and some of the cosmetic engine components as well as the wheels are hand made out of pre-preg carbon fiber. That takes a painstakingly long amount of time and money, which may help you understand as to why there's only been 200 cars made.

>>14569098
I've seen one.
Wish I took a picture, they look pretty damn nice.

On any racetrack. Koenigseggs are built to stay on museums, while some Porsches are actually built to perform.

>>14573479
You're still in fantasy land. The 918? Sure. The 911? No way.

>>14571938
>>14573531

He's right though. As far as I know nobody has ever even turned on a one:1. The porsche wins by default.

Seriously I see endless articles about how fast these things are

>the one:1 is koenigseggs 280mph answer to bugatti xDDDDD

Yet I've never even seen one do anything besides slowly coast around a track on a track day.

There's not a single record of them going faster than 200.

I bet a 997 gt3 would destroy a one:1 because as far as I know, turning them on is a myth

>>14574543
Well, the One:1 supposedly holds the record at Spa for road going cars, but I can't find any other times to compare it to. They were going to do the Nurburgring, but then the owners mysteriously decided to institute speed limits just before.

>>14574543
Have you been living under a rock?
The Koenigsegg CCR did 241 mph on Nardo, where nothing can actually reach its top speed, in 2005.

Plenty of videos of Ageras on the Autobahn doing over 200. Search "Agera autobahn" or see
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2A5U4r0BF0

The One:1 you saw "slowly coasting" around on a track day broke the lap record for road cars. I guess that says a thing or two about what they're capable of.

6/10 made me reply.

>>14574543
Probably because you're a fucking mong and haven't seen how the one:1 holds the record for suzuka and spa.

Or how about those videos fucking 7 posts above yours that show an Agera doing 365km/h on a relatively short track?

Or how about this 918 maxxing out just to catch up to an agera

I fucking love the brand for all the reasons stated by >>14572558.

I think it's a damn shame that the brand gets unwarranted negative publicity from uneducated morons who get all their information off 15 year old posts on some Chevy forum like >14572004 and >>14574543 but I guess that's life for a small car manufacturer.

I mean this video shows it off the best:

>>14575813
woah now

gonna need a full service after this. I don't think that drivetrain can handle the car driving that far!

>>14575763
> suzuka
Literally no one tests at this track. Typical marketing technique of try set a record on a track no other manufacturer has bothered to

> spa
It doesn't hold the record, and same as above

Let me know when it laps the nurburgring or one of the dozen American tracks everyone uses as a benchmark

>>14575813
Oh look it set a "record" where the next fastest cars are a fwd Renault and a porsche from the 90s

>>14575813
>suzuka

only popular because of f1

nobody uses it as a benchmark

>>14576229
>American tracks everyone uses as a benchmark

Here is where we can know you don't know shit your're talking.

No one uses american tracks as benchmarks apart from Chevy and Ford and their shill magazines

>>14576322
> ad homos
Stay mad it can't compete with any other hyper car outside of a straight line

>>14576339
maybe it can. We'd know if there was more than 5 and they didnt depreciate by a million dollars when you turn the key

>>14576264
>>14576254
>>14576229
Holds the record on 2 world-known tracks, keep staying mad.
>nurburgring
Speed limits
>american tracks
No american customers for the One:1 so they don't give a shit
