What the heck is a Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita doing in here?

You'll be asking that at first. Then you just might notice one or two more interesting things in the picture.



Click the image to wander through the full album.

I've got to say that the 'segg has always been a car I have favored, especially after getting to see one a few years back. This particular CCXR Trevita is pretty incredible really. I'll certainly be looking forward to this upcoming episode of JayLenosGarage.com.

I have a friend that was in a Koenigsegg about 3 or so years back. He was distinctly unimpressed by the build quality.

I don't think people buy them for build quality, that is why the mac is so unique has ultimate performance and built like a swiss watch.

For the money I'd want build quality like a Swiss watch - Bugatti seem to have achieved that in the Veyron - and not of an IKEA wardrobe.

Re: What the heck is a Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita doing in here?

Surprised to hear those negative comments about build quality.

I was still arms length from the one I got to see, so that's not the best way to evalute many things, but from all I could tell of the CCR I saw, it seemed to have been very well done. Doors were wide open, as was the engine cover, so I had a pretty thorough view of things. Of course once inside with the doors closed that opinion could have changed, however I didn't get that sort of opportunity.

The CCXR Trevita clip has just been posted to Leno's website so we'll see what he thought of it. Maybe his comments will be somewhat tempered with the car's creator, Christian von Koenigsegg, being there with it, but Jay is normally a pretty straight shooter.

Well Jay certainly liked it.

I must admit - I liked it too.

In mitigation, it may well have been a prototype or early press car.
