Oh yeah, a $100 thousand BMW versus a $1.6 million supercar. That’s a fair test!
I actually took a look at their website.
Great story for those who are entrepreneurially-minded...

Seems like that’s your point, which is a great one.
The fellow had a lot of achievement - in his 20’s.
Appears to have more vision and drive in his little finger than most 20-somethings do in their whole body.
Here is Koenigsegg Agera S vs. Bugatti Veyron. Two cars costing well over $1 million.
The Koenigsegg (black yellow) DESTROYS the Veyron (burgundy grey).

Cars go back and forth, for fastest production title. Koenigsegg is on top now, I believe at 273 mph
Pretty impressive for a small company employing less than 40 people:

Why do foreign manufactures like to show their cars sliding through turns? It also doesn’t look to comfortable. I’ll keep my 300C.
Volkswagen reported $46 Billion plus in gross profit for the 12 months ending September 30. How did you do last year?
some specs:
the Koenigsegg Agear R boasts 1,140 horsepower from its twin turbo 5.0-liter V8. Weighing in at 3,163 pounds, the machine is capable of bolting to 200 miles per hour in a scant 17.68 seconds on its way to a top speed of 273 mph. Sounds like a party.
Chinese Customs SEIZED one recently it appears

That BMW is a car pretty much anyone can buy (for a small fraction of the K’egg price - not that the comparison was anything but laughable in the first place). Koenigsegg builds cars for the filthy Saudi princes and other oil sheikdom scum where cost matters nothing. Yeah, now *that’s* something to be proud of.
At least they didn’t compare the K’egg to a car from a *competent* company like Volvo or Saab...oh, wait...
I double dog dare you to send some of those beautiful Viking women to wrestle me! I would want to be sure they weren’t cheating, so it would have to be nude wrestling. The first nine or ten of them might beat me just out of luck, so the matches could possibly take years to complete. If I win, we have to wrestle again. If she wins, we have to wrestle again.
