koenigseggboard.com presents: Koenigsegg CCX in action w Christian

[Uv7x77]

I think this is a question that many people have on their minds

What kind of career do i need to get to get one of these?

Man i love koenigsegg, ever since i laid my eyes on the CC8S

[m5boarddotcom]

@Uv7x77 DId you see my Koenigsegg Forum at koenigseggboard. com?

[oktan96]

Fan vad snygg bil, får jag mycke pengar nån gång i livet ska jag köpa en sån, kul at den är svensk föressten:), men dom lär vell flytta allt till utlandet som allt annat:/

[Radiaq787]

Damn It can´t put the power down.

Maybe it needs a big Spoiler.

[DrifterSupreme]

if i had a rich dad id start a car company too

[dwright71]

Lousy quality video . Way to much wind noise. Still a badass car though.

[m0rb1dnightmare]

lol i love how at 4:38 christian makes an epic entourage with that engine rev and door open... i think in that sense he's basically saying, "yeah, i know... i make the world's most badass car with my name on it"

[m5boarddotcom]

True :)

Did you dsee my site koenigseggboard. com?

[RagingCaveman]

what a horrible slalom....way off the cones....let me at that beast, I'll show em' how it's done..... or any of twenty guys and gals that I know....

[wazuphomiez]

hey. u should see if u can get some guys to come that have the SSC Ultimate Aero TT and the Bugatti Veyron and have them duke it out. just saying =/

[TroyRx]

have u guys put the porsche cgt against the ccx ?

[m5boarddotcom]

Not at this point.

[Christoo92]

If you get your hands on a Saleen S7TT, let me know!!

[m5boarddotcom]

An overweight GT... :)

[garrapata8008]

well said my friend...

[Fozzy13579Bear]

amen to that!

[SovererignTuning]

@m5boarddotcom yeah a fat one, Koenigsegg and Lamborghini for life.

[opticonica]

i want to kill the guy holding the camera

[m5boarddotcom]

No thanks :)

[AKaudio]

I wish they would just bring back the old American Muscle cars like the 1970 Version Chevelle and old ford mustand, not the piece of crap remakes they manufacture today.

[m5boarddotcom]

No thank you.

[garrapata8008]

i almost wet myself with that sound ...... its godly !! :)

[m5boarddotcom]

It is. Did you see the DVD?

[6psychosis6]

Umm, first of all youre an idiot. SSC Ultimate Aero is clearly not a pos. Mclaren is always going to be the most beautiful car in terms of performance and looks. Took the veyron 4 turbos to develop that much power - its just completely over the top. You dont have to pay a million dollars for the ssc and you would still beat the veyron haha

[PrivatePoop]

Is the Aero anything but faster than the Veyron? The Veyron is a marvel of modern engineering; it's astonishingly quiet, comfortable, and STABLE at extreme speeds. Have you read anywhere that the wind noise inside the SSC and ride quality are anything like the Bugatti?

[6psychosis6]

Never looked into it.

[m5boarddotcom]

Behave...

[6psychosis6]

carrera gt sounds better :D

[yanster420]

murcielago R-GT sounds better

[6psychosis6]

Well if youre comparing .. might aswell do it on the same level then.. the gemballa carrera gt smokes the rgt outta the water interms of styling and performance.. oh yea.. and sound :)

[yanster420]

until the mirage gets its twin turbo setup then it won't beat the rgt for performance as it is an 1100kg race car. styling yea and probably top speed but there is at least a 600lb difference. the rgt has 536hp/ton and the mirage is at 471. alright, with the sound, i'll call it a draw.

[m5boarddotcom]

It did! :D

[xPETEY23x]

the SSC Ultimate Aero is the world fastest production car now... and American with primitive engine technology

[m5boarddotcom]

How many sold? None I beleive.

[faust540]

några fler vipers än 4 skulle jag gissa på ;)

[m5boarddotcom]

Hehe, det har du nog rätt i ;)

[SwedeWithAnAccent]

När var hela detta spektaklet?

[m5boarddotcom]

Det var i september 2006, se gtboard punkt com. Du kan tom köpa en DVD och Bluray från eventet, sök på gtboard på amazon punkt com. Maila minsta fråga till gustav@gtboard punkt com.

[Etyphoon88]

as we all know, luxury or not, a CCX is smoked by a Veyron. Rly no match, veyron is obvious winner + you can drive comfortably in it, unlike in the koenigsegg

[m5boarddotcom]

Veyron might be more comfortable but I would guess the Veyron is not faster on the Nordschleife.

[Etyphoon88]

would rly love to test that actually. Would be epic race...won by a veyron :)

[TEFLONTHADON]

A track with any turns at all the veyron is out cornered by most hyper cars. Its fast and comfortable in a straight line.

[Etyphoon88]

i wouldn't say cars like the murcielago LP 640 (king of hypercars) are doing great in corners...

[TEFLONTHADON]

The LP 640 is not the king of the hypercars.

[m5boarddotcom]

True. There must be a reason why they have not tried the Veyron on the Nordschleife.

[MikoyanF29]

People need to stop comparing Gayron ( 2 ton glorified beetle) to this masterpiece. It just doesn't stand a chance against a CCX on the track, and especially CCXR (1018bhp) that would simply annihilate the Gayron in every way.

[xissburg]

I fully disagree. Why do you think so? you are an ignorant. I agree the Veyron is a fast luxury car, and that's why I love that. I have never seen a luxury sports car like that. I love luxury and high acceleration then the Veyron is the one who satisfies myself.

[TEFLONTHADON]

The Veyron is fast in a straight line thats all, outside of that it is outperformed by the ccx, ccxr, and most definitely the ccgt

[m5boarddotcom]

Could be!

[UFO721]

not really they actually have a reputation it's the other way around top gear proved it.

[m5boarddotcom]

Very true. Veyron is like a Bentley Continental GT with 1000 HP!

[McLarenMercedes]

The day the Koenigsegg goes over 400kph anywhere I will salute it. It's still a great achievement from a small company and it goes extremely well on the Nurburgring,where real cars are tested. Anyway I have not seen Autocar (a well respected car mag,and also the oldest in the world) test one. If it goes 0-150mph in 14 seconds or below then I'm impressed.

[m5boarddotcom]

It does 0-100 km/h in 3,6 s and that is with the very long gearing and has several records on parts of the Nordschleife compared with the previous Sport Auto tests. It is also only one second after the Carrera GT on the Norschleife (the CCR) and that was with an exteriour temperature of 4 degrees Celsius (low grip). The CCX will take the Zonda F and Carrera GT track time in a hartbeat. Sweden rules :D

[joker1979]

Koenigsegg CCX , is one awsome car arround the world , but you know ....the only car had a segond key to past 400k/h is that huge veyron ...im a ferrarist ...that s mean in my blood you can find some ferrari symbole ....i falling love with a Porsche , lambo , Maserati , and M series of BMW .....but all what i saw

like a runs .....betwen all that car,Bugatti was away the most fast , if you have one run betwen Koenigsegg CCX and Bugatti let me share it with you .

[marauderrt10]

bugatti doesnt want to race the CCX/R because they know they would lose badly.

[xissburg]

Shut the fuck up . . . its simply impossible for a Koenigsegg to beat a Veyron...the Veyron does 0-100km/h in 2.5 secs, the CCX does 0-100mk/h in 3.2 secs, its a huge difference...For me the Veyron is the most incredible car ever created mainly because of its awesome acceleration, there's no production car with an acceleration like that...

[bcaf1]

But you have to remember with these things that what looks like fact might not turn out that way.

The Mclaren F1's acceleration figures are all worse than the Veyron's, all the way to its lower top speed, and yet if you watch the showdown between the two that was shown episode 2, Series 13 of Top Gear, the F1 pulls out an early, yet impossible if the figures are believed, lead.

One of the cars was not meeting the figures it claimed. I can guess which one. So who knows, maybe a CCXR would win.

[bcaf1]

One is simply left to sit and wonder in what language it was that the above comment was written...

[joker1979]

what are you talking about ? try a look to that holy shit numbers of performance " 410 km/h and 1001 horses " ....can you find the same somewhere ?....yo man wake up ....the huge bugatti blow up all the engine ....Deutchland prefect .

[m5boarddotcom]

Joker, please be corteous and polite here. YOU need tolearn more about Koenigsegg CCXR, Google it.

It is fun how heavy the Veyron is and I do not beleive for a second that it could beat the Keonigsegg on Nordschleife. Sweden rules ;)

[christopherjcoffey]

4100+ lbs vs. 2600 lbs for the CCX idiot.

[joker1979]

hey coffey , you have to learn more about car ...take some black coffee and google Bugatti on the net , you will have a clear answer and erase all you confusion ....." im not idiot " hihi ...idiot is a guy who know just a bit about Veyron. kiss

[christopherjcoffey]

Look, all I'm saying is that the CCX and especially the CCXR have a greater power to weight ratio in comparison to the Veyron.

[xissburg]

But the Veyron's acceleration is much higher than the Koenigsegg's...

[StrykEagle]

that means nothing. the go go is important when your 2 ton beetle its sliding off the track and all you can think about is "WHY!!!!" as you under steer in to the wall totaling the BUGatti.

[joker1979]

try that race with a Veyron....you will have one a different answer .....Deutch engenering

[m5boarddotcom]

Not with the CCXR with over 1000 HP :D Swedish engneering :D

[m5boarddotcom]

Buy this on DVD at GTboard dotcom. By doing so you are supportign these races.

[donnyinlakai561]

I don't think The CCXR accelerates from 0-100 in 3.2 seconds. that's the CCX's 0-60 time, and the CCXR has only 25% more power than the CCX. But I could be wrong, even though I highly doubt that.

[chekdis1]

Holy Shit!! I love the way the doors open. Amazing car.

[MieVitunIte]

Aah, they're jealous americans who cant understand HOW could ANYONE get over 500bhp from an engine less than 12 liters in size, and going around corners quickly is simply HERESY and violates laws of nature!

[Zcarbon]

You dont have to be an asshole about it.

[nvmcxzoiusae]

Heh, funny how you brought that up.

Check Z06 please :)

[donnyinlakai561]

Wow MieVitunite. You really aren't too smart. Seeing as the 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 has 7.0 liters, 505 bhp and a 0-60 time of 3.7 seconds (as fast as a Ferrari F-50) So why don't you stop saying such ignorant things why don't you.

[geotrian]

lovely swedish bias

[m5boarddotcom]

I am from Sweden. Buy the DVD on GTboarddotcom

[VonTripps]

My six year old son can do a better job with the video camera.

Who encoded the video? Sound sync???

Talk about Amatuer Hour!

Go back to school.

Boring video and a pain in the ARSE to watch.

Don't bother.

[zloben9000]

IT HAS NO AIR CONDITIONING !

NO AIRBAG !

EURO 1 STANDARD !

DANGEROUS ACCORDING TO CRASH TESTS !

AND IS HARD TO DRIVE

AND HARD TO PARK !

IT ALSO HAS A TERRIBLE RIDE !

IT WILL KILL YOU !

fuck this car !

[m5boarddotcom]

WHat is wrong with you? You have not diven one I am pretty sure is correct.

[dombower]

cut down on the shaky camera holding then ill watch

[m5boarddotcom]

Maybe ;)

[lordfarquart]

has anyone heard/seen anything of the new CCXR? more power than a veyron (just)! check out the june'07 issue of Top Gear magazine for details.

[gustovo134]

i dont know but thats what it says on koenigegg official website (CCR not CCX) and dragtimes . com

[007badboy88]

yeh i checked that out, you're right it does say the ccr does the quarter mile in 9 seconds which is incredible!

[SunriseFestival]

nice car, but the guy holding the camera got parkinson or something?

[m5boarddotcom]

No. he is zooming too much ;)

[gustovo134]

does the Koenigsegg have ceramic brakes?

[m5boarddotcom]

As an option, yes.

[gustovo134]

is it worth it to?

[gustovo134]

also is that ccx pearl or dark silver?

[mykenterprises]

found this one for you --> 2006 Veyron 1/4 mile = 10.8 (C&D Jan '06) won't let me post the site...something like albeedigitalDOTcom

[gustovo134]

yeah... 2004 koenigsegg CCR 1/4 mile= 9.0 at 146mph

koenigsegg official website and 9.1 on dragtimes

[mykenterprises]

i don't doubt the acceleration facts, we were talking about the 1/4 mile...kisses :p lol

[mykenterprises]

oh you wanted to see the veyron times too..gotcha, and ya i know, but they havent posted the data on their homepage yet

[mykenterprises]

i actually managed to find the data on koenigsegg's webstie 10 seconds for the cc8s and 9 for the ccr

[mykenterprises]

weird...ah well, all i know is that the times ive seen for teh ccx sprint are quicker than the veyrons ;)

[mykenterprises]

it wasn't on the homepage, it's on other various websites. I still don't understand how the ccx does it quicker, given the fact that the veyron takes it to 100, 200 and 300, but then again he might be running it on E85 which gives the ccx some 950 bhp

[mykenterprises]

depending on who you source the veyron does the standing 1/4 in 10.3-10.6 seconds, where as the ccx does it anywhere from 9.3-9.8

[mykenterprises]

yea i'm gonna have to go ahead and tell you that the ccxr beats the veyron by a second through the quarter mile...pfffft

[sidewayssam]

have you heard how fast it eats the gears up...monster,whats more impressive is its build quality..the trapsoidal hinges on the doors are a work of art,build quality,,beautifull..compared to a veyron?like it but would have the koeniggseg,the bugatti has something like 10 radiators and 80 litres of coolant and oils to make it reliable,and it took years to come into fruition..each one cost over a 1.6 million pound to bugatti to build,so the actually sell at a loss,bet you keoniggsegs dont!

[TAYOTAS]

god dam that was fast

[caelestis42]

Try a CCXR running on E85 instead.

1018bhp, bye bye Veyron.

[TheTristMan]

yea the veyron has some sexy power but only the koenigsegg CCX is worthy of becoming my lover...

[brocky]

Thats a CCX dood. Zonda F's are fast as hell but facts are facts. The CCX is one of the fastest cars in the world

[monishdragon]

rite now it IS faster one in the worls.. it beat zonda F's record... it was awesome altho i love zondaF this CCX is kickbutt!

[m5boarddotcom]

Nej, det var det inte. Det var nämligen jag och Christian von Koenigsegg som pratade.

[Faxxandu]

En brat från bubblare.se, antar att det inte var han ändå.

[Faxxandu]

Kan det vara en viss Rickard Lind man hör prata i slutet?

[m5boarddotcom]

Vem är denne Rickard?

[dirtysouthtim69]

so thats what a demon sounds like. As for the Zonda F i think it could keep up with this car on the track. Since the Zonda F does have 2nd place on the leaderboard on topgear. And the Zonda F supposedly handles alittle better. I WANT BOTH DAMMIT!!! lol

[PorscheTT]

Hahaha you said zonda. tsk tsk...

[holmesmd1]

I want some of what you are smoking dude, NO WAY!!

[dulakoglu]

impossible zonda 550 hp :(

[MuskokaLad]

Zonda F would rip that.

[megayogi]

the ccx is the 2 fastest and th zonda is the 5 fastest

[monishdragon]

nope... it.. beat zonda F's speed record :(
