What you see here is one of the rarest, most exotic and most expensive pieces of automotive history. This is the first the only six customer Koenigsegg One:1 models, sold long ago for the staggering sum of over $3 million USD.
In this video we see this black Koenigsegg One:1 – garnished with gold stripes – leaving the showroom. The exhaust on this car is so damn loud it sets off the alarm on other cars in the showroom!
The world’s first Megacar boasts a power to weight ratio of one to one, hence the name. Koenigsegg has gone to enormous length to make that happen. Those wheels, for example, are built using a new technique for creating hollow carbon fiber spokes. And the engine, well, that is tuned almost to destruction and makes 1,360 horsepower. Unofficially, the One:1 has achieved a top speed of over 280 mph.
