I love koenigseggs from the first time i saw a cc8s in a magazine. They are Just so violent but simple.
I have sat in a ccx which someone was trying to sell at a motorshow for 2.2 million dollars, we only have 1 in australia. An old girlfriend got me for my birthday a book on the history of the company signed by christian and the first test driver and a picture singed by christian wishing me a happy birthday.
I wish that i could be successful enough to afford one…if not rob a bank or win he lottery
swedes can engineer!
ever see the twisting torso? I watched a documentary on the construction. It was pretty cool (as far as boring engineering/construction documentaries go).
LOVE THIS CAR! I could watch that video all day long.
Drive has some good content. I’m really digging that youtube channel.
I know of the twisting torso. Beautiful building. I would love to see the documentary on that.
Yes, the car is insane. Look at the thought that went into the door mechanism and the placement of the fuel tank. And the balance under high speed breaking. :o
Drive is a cool channel. Check out the Pagani video if you haven’t already.
we have something similar here just outside Toronto

Those are cool. Where exactly are they located? I don’t recall seeing them the last time I was in Toronto (it has been a while).
They’re in Mississauga, a city of 700,000 that is one of the suburbs about 10 miles west of the city proper.
You can see them from everywhere because they’re up around 50 stories tall or something.
How long have those been up?
Granted I haven’t been up to Mississauga in a long time, but I don’t remember those.
I can’t wait until this is done in Chicago. Construction is moving along but it’s an engineering marvel to get it to stand on the land where it’s going. It practically sits on the water table from the river

iqmeh, they were built over the past 2 years or so.
joe, that’s neat. I like Chicago a lot. I need to go back for a 3-4 day vacation.
Holy shit both those buildings are amazing.
I too love Chicago. I have family there and make the trip at least once a year. Last time I was there they had that UN bullshit going on so we didn’t venture too far into the city.
