General History

This first CC8S debuted at the Geneva Motor Show march 2002 and was reported to have been delivered to it's first customer. Not sure about that as this car has always been with Koenigsegg and is used as a factory development car. Started life as CC8S but received numerous upgrades and is now considered a CCR. This Koenigsegg was used to break the 7 year old McLaren F1 World Speed Record at Nardo, Italy. And for this reason it was fitted with a roll cage, race seat, 4-point safety harness and fire retention system in the engine compartment as well as in the cabin.

Exterior Spec

This CC8S is currently painted red. However, the exterior spec of this car has changed numerous times over the years given its function as a development car. In the early stage of its life it had a one piece black rear wing, which was later abandoned. During the Auto Motor Sport review with Horst von Saurma the wing was painted silver. Although many CCR upgrades were applied to this car, it always kept the CC8S front with notched headlights.

Interior Spec

The interior is black leather with grey alcantara.
