wow...he said that? I must have missed that!

I love the CCX...it's design, performance, even the fact that it looks just like something a 10-year-old would draw as a supercar

to be fair - I don't think he said that in reference to the CCX, but it's still true (and I love that line!) I probably should've said "to paraphrase clarkson"...

Same here - the performance is just insane, and it looks like nothing else! Would love to see one in person!

Not an appropriate comparison, of course the CCX is faster, but its also at least 2.5x the price of the Scuderia, much more powerful and lighter etc…. CCX is really in the Enzo or so league.

As it's held at Koenigsegg's own private airstrip I can't see them wanting to get (what way did E90ice call it) 'raped' by the Veyron.

The CXX is a bloody quick machine but against the Bugatti and it's lightening gear shifts the CXX would get a whipping.

Are you sure? You do realize that even tho the Veyron has more hp it also weights 1000lbs more, right?

100% certain about that.

Even the McLaren F1 hammers the CXX in acceleration and the Veyron destroy it. I remember an article written in a UK mag that stated that if both the McLaren and the Bugatti lined up side by side on a three mile runway and the F1 started acceleration and at the point it reached 130mph the Veyron started from zero, it would still reach 200mph first. Now that magazine tested the F1 and recorded the fastest ever speed for one, so they should know what they are talking about.

That's crazy. I'd like to see one of those RUF or 9ff tuned P-cars go against the CCX.
