Geneva Preview: Koenigsegg CCX & CCXR Edition Models

As if the CCX and its bio-fuelled twin, the CCXR weren’t already a rare site, Koenigsegg has created two Limited Edition versions of its supercar: the CCX Edition model with a 888 Hp 4.8L twin supercharged V8 engine limited to 14 cars and a CCXR (Bio flexi fuel) Edition model limited to 6 cars with 1018 bhp.

The Special Edition version is more track biased compared to the standard models, as it has stiffer springs and anti-roll bars, reset dampers and lowered chassis. It also features a fully visible carbon body a large adjustable rear wing, larger front splitter and side strakes for increased down force and a unique forged wheel design. –Continued after the jump

All other extra equipment comes as standard, such as Carbon Wheels, Special interior trim and color, Rearview camera, Satnav or Bluetooth, Amplifiers, complete Inconell exhaust system in order to save weight.

Exclusivity comes at a price though with the 888 Hp CCX costing a mind-blowing €1,330,000 or, $1,980,000 and the 1018 hp CCXR, €1,500,000 or $2,334,000. Unveiling of the Edition versions will be at the Geneva Motor show in March 2008, where the first delivery will take place.
