KOENIGSEGG CCX



What are the swedish famous for? Blond and hot women!!!! But now they can be proud of somethin else , this swedish beauty is called KOENIGSEGG CCX. The design is trully "swedish", futuristc and agressive. The body of the car is timeless and it is made for BIG speed. The rear hood is one huge piece of carbonfibre, modelled to incorporate both the avant-garde bridge-like air intake below the rear window and an integrated wing. Since the hoods and roof cover the entire car, they expose the whole chassis when lifted, allowing for easy inspection and maintenance.The Koenigsegg look stands out and makes a statement, which has awarded Koenigsegg several prestigious design prizes, e.g. the German Red Dot award and a prize for excellent Swedish design.



The is pure and copes with the exteriorThe layout is strictly symmetrical, with its elements mirrored on the centreline. All details are refined and the surfaces are cleaned of unnecessary obstructions. The focal point is the circular main control panel with its zodiac of multicolour lights and stainless steel buttons. In the very midpoint of the car is the turned gear lever; a flagpole topped by a gemstone carved with the Swedish colours.

Despite all the regulatory changes, the CCX is still one of the world's fastest supercars. Back in early 2005, a CCR supercar had won the fastest production car title when it achieved 241 mph (387.87 kph) on at Italy's Nardo Track. However, with the introduction of the long awaited Veyron, Bugatti became the king of the hill and made the CCR second.
