Mike, I think the time has come for you to put on some big boy pants and buy an 'egg! (I know, I know, they're like a gazillion USD in your country but.....but... you still want it! )

Koeniggseg just become a 'want' car in my book. The performance and über engineered transformer like body shell make it stand out from the pack.

That's Koenigsegg's test airfield. It's only a couple of minutes drive from the factory.

I went there a couple of years ago when I drove the CCX below. It's basically a playground for Christian (who can be seen at the start of that first vid - the bald guy) and his customers, although half of it is usually dedicated to a motorbike training school (hence the cones on the side).

The factory is fascinating - well worth the trip to Sweden,

the Agera R does 0-300-0 in 21sec. that is very impressive from a little swedish carmaker
