    The Agera R is a beast! It broke 6 world land speed records for a production car right when it was released. I think it's the only rear wheel drive car capable of going 0-60 in < 3 sec. too. The CCXR was frightening, this thing is a terror!

    I think it is possible since the koenigsegg test area is 1.53 km long. There they got up to 320km/h from standing still, the nurburgring straight 1.65 km until the bridge in the video, and lets say they take that corner in at least 150 km/h (the 599xx went 200km/h exiting the corner) it should be possible.

    Agera R and CCXR are both AWD



    In regards to doubters, Koenigsegg has always ruled the acceleration world. A CCX will beat a veyron from a dead stop all the way to 250 mph. An Agera will beat a Veyron SS all the way to 255 and the Agera R just destroys all things. The veyron will have them off the line but after 2nd gear, NOPE. I believe it takes 32 seconds to hit 250 mph (402 kmh) from dead stop so it is possible

    Afraid not, Sir. "Layout Rear mid-engine, rear-wheel drive" Source: Koenigsegg Agera R - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    The fact that it's rear wheel drive is what makes it so incredible and terrifying at the same time.

    ^As said above both the Agera and CCX R's are mid engine RWD. If it really did break in to the 400KPH mark thats just nuts! GPS plz!

    CCXR is 100% AWD guys..... I thought Agera R was AWD too. CCX is RWD but CCXR editions are AWD






    edit: CCXR is RWD and funny enough, faster than the Agera R in acceleration but the editions are AWD. FML

    SirRobbins sure wants at least ONE to be AWD... I admire your stubbordness but no Egg is AWD... RWD is the way we roll... ;-)
