I did.

Only 940 hp?

Pssh. Lightweight.

The Veyron pushes 1200 horses.

(seriesly. Both are fine cars. I’d rather have the Bugatti though.)

Yeah, but Christian von Koenigsegg is the genius behind his auto efforts, vs. the enormous VW group, with access to Audi, Porsche technology. (Audi has won 24 hours of Le Mans something like 12 of the last 13 years)

The air is very thin up where these rich boys play with their super-cars. So they go to an airstrip in southern Sweden, and do rolling starts, 0-300-0 kph, 0-200 kph, etc.

In comparison to the Veyron, the Agera is indeed a lightweight. It’s around 1,000 lb lighter, although I still wouldn’t call a 3,200 lb car light.
