Just noticed that Koenigsegg finally, officially knocked off the McLaren F1 for fastest production car ever.

Koeningsegg is a swedish produced car... but I didn`t know that it was running on a V8...I thought it had a V12.... great movie

They did buy the rights for a Ferrari designed V12 from Subaru a year or two ago, I thought they would have came up with a chassis for it by now. I don't see why you would mess with an awesome piece like they have, just for the sake of having a V12. I don't see where they would gain anything, I mean the baddest of the a$$ street V12's out there (Ferrari), gets wailed on by this little V8.

yea..I see what you mean...a litle V8 beats a V12..it`s funny to see
