    Its the spirit of the car. If you want traction control. Buy an Enzo. If you want a drivers car, buy the Koenigsegg. Or so that is the logic they want you to use. It doesn't have to make sense, it doesn't have to 'but you can always turn it off'. Bollocks, its ALWAYS off, and that gives the car a different character and a different soul and a different appeal than if it had a traction control.

    It's good looking, powerfull, exclusive, fast, but for some reason I'm just not atracted to it. I don't really know why.

    Awesome car, but as they said, it needs a back wing. Otherwise, I love it.

    I'd buy at least 20 other cars before considering a Koenigsegg but after I got those 20 then yes I'd buy one.

    The car looks and sounds great and I love the flames spitting out ... but I just want a Ferrari :)

    I may be wrong on this, but i thought that yes, CCX has an engine made by themselves, but the basic design of the engine block is really just development of the Ford engine block that was used in the orginial CC8S. Either way, i still don't think a supercar of this caliber and price should have a V8, just doesn't seem exotic enough.

    I'd take it just because of the speed, styling and most importantly it lacks traction control.

    It is a close one-two between this and the Zonda F. Zonda being first choice, CCX second. Ofcourse at the moment I don't have the money for them so it won't matter until I do.

    Zonda F. When they put a spoiler and traction control I will buy a Koenigsegg to put beside my Zonda F.

    The great thing about Koenigsegg in my opinion is that this 33 year old guy started hustling in chicken sales and now owns his own company that is vying with Bugatti (VW groups actually) for the title of fastest car in the world.

    I'm almost 30. I don't see being able to buy the CCX in the next three years, let alone build a company to compete against it. It's a wonder that the die hard Ferrari fans here are even comparing it to the Enzo, CGT, etc.

    I also LOVE the fact that it's built in a quasi-socialist (and now dhimmified) country that frowns on anyone MAKING $60,000 a year let alone spending 10X that amount on a car. I would buy it just to keep a company making a statement like that in business.

    Why should it matter how exotic it SEEMS, if it works well, this should not matter. As long as it works good enough to make the car perform like an exotic, I am happy.

    Oh, get real. How retarded do you have to be to do something like that? Honestly, if you're that big of a dumb ass, you should stick to drive Mondials.

    I'll take my Koenigsegg in black, extra death on the side..
