Title: Holy Sh!t How Fast!!!!
Post by: vRS Carl on September 05, 2011, 09:35:25 pm
The New Koenigsegg Agera R has provisionally set 6 new production car records (Just waiting for Guiness Book of Records to confirm) :driver:

http://www.topgear.com/uk/car-news/koenigsegg-agera-r-world-records-2011-09-05

For those who can't see the link here is the main bit

Quote from:  BBC Top Gear
Guinness confirmed to TopGear.com that they're waiting for the results, meanwhile congratulating the Swedes on the records. Records that are as follows:

0-300kmh: 14.53 seconds
0-200mph: 17.68 seconds
300-0kmh: 6.66 seconds
200-0mph: 7.28 seconds
0-300-0kmh: 21.19 seconds
0-200-0mph: 24.96 seconds

As a barometer, a 1,200bhp Bugatti Veyron Supersport posts a 0-200mph time of 22.2s.

Weather conditions were fine on the day - albeit cloudy - and wind ‘did not affect the results'. Koenigsegg said a short film will appear in a few days time showing the record run.


Or in short 4.54 secs quicker to 200mph than a Veyron Supersport  :surprised: :party: :congrats:

Probably cost you 70 to 80k including the car. Won't be short wheel base though...

I did 30-130 in 20 seconds in a 400 bhp Evo 6 and then watched the old lesser powered  Norris Evo do 5.8 seconds! Unreal for a family 4 door saloon Lol

That is one impressive car. I can't see that power being used properly on roads though, I guess if you have the money to afford one you don't really care about how much of that 1200BHP you can use!
