Swedens first Koenigsegg CCX chrashed

The first Koenigsegg CCX to be sold in Sweden was sold yesterday for about 1 million dollars.

Today, it went it to the forest :cryying:

It was 40 degrees outside and raining.
Not the best day to test drive your new ccx i guess.

Its not a coincidence that two of the safest cars in the world (Volvo and Saab) are built here in Sweden ;-)

Wow the Volvo/Saab Marketing Departement really did its job. Actually the safest cars are not from Sweden, because Volvo and Saab are not very safe. The safest (Crashtest) are the BMW/Merc/Audi/VW and Citroen, yep that's right a Citroen!
It's one of the many myths that Volvo and Saab are the safest cars, when in fact they are far from that in crashtests.

So when the Z06 first came out Chevrolet required buyers to complete a driving course, correct? I just can not understand how these supercar companies would not take the same precaution. It blows my mind how people who can accumulate that volume of wealth yet have such bad judgement.

That didnt really say much. The Volvos were just as equal as the others. The only thing they didnt have was a child safety crash rating which they probably didnt test. Volvos are still some of the safest cars, I would check the American, is it NTSB that does the crash ratings for the US? Cause the US has higher standards I believe than the rest of the world.
