Converted to CCR #7026

General History

This car made its debut at the 2003 Geneva Motor Show, together with #7002. Initially delivered to Modena. This car initially had the older tail lights and was sometimes displayed as Koenigsegg CC instead of CC8S.

Its initial owner kept the car in the UK but brought it to the US for Gumball 3000 where, according to rumors, it received the highest ever speeding ticket. Allegedly the police clocked the car at a staggering speed of 242 mph (389 Km/h).

It was later kept in Italy by its second owner and subsequently converted to CCR #7026.

Exterior Spec

This car has a very distinctive feature, or better, it lacks a very distinctive feature: The two central airco vents, which are  normally on top of the middle console. This car doesn't have these, which makes it a bit easier to identify (even with the changes it underwent).

Interior Spec

Just like the exterior, the interior changed also. The base interior color changed from orange to cream to dark red. The black accents stayed the same throughout though, as did the radio. This car lacks the typical airco vents on top of the console, the other early Koenigseggs CC8S have (except for #7001).
