Koenigsegg says the Agera R can beat the McLaren P1 and the Ferrari LaFerrari
The 2013 Geneva Motor Show is already over but people are still talking about it and all the hypercars that were introduced in the Swiss city. He saw the Lamborghini Veneno, the Ferrari La Ferrari and the McLaren P1, but there was one that didn't got much attention, the Koenigsegg Hundra, a car that celebrated the production of 100 cars over the last ten years.
So when asked what they (the guys from Koenigsegg) thought about those supercars they just said they liked the P1 and the engineering solutions McLaren used in it, but quickly pointed that the Agera R is more powerful, faster and lighter.
The discussion than went to another level. Recently the Pagani Huayra set a new lap record on the Top Gear track (Dunsfold) and was accused of using slick tires with hand-made cuts in it (racing tire) from the Zonda R while the car should have used the Pirelli PZero Corsa. McLaren now says the P1 was 10 seconds faster in the Top Gear track than the current lap record, which belongs to the Huayra. This means the P1 can go around the Dunsfold track in around 1:03.
Now Koenigsegg says the Agera R (and the CCX) can beat the (cheater) Pagani Huayra in road tires. And what about the McLaren P1? They didn't comment on that, but they already said the Agera R is faster... And Ferrari has been really quiet about performance figures. Can't wait for the next season of the Top Gear show, since we will get to see the Agera R try to beat the shows track lap record. We might even get to see the P1 and even the La Ferrari.
I can only wish to see the Veneno join the party.

Ferrari FF M (Modified)
The super stylish shooting brake Ferrari FF will soon have a facelift. Already in the works, the FF will have a redesigned rear end. According to the Ferrari nomenclature of the past the new model might be called FF M.

The unseen concepts of the La Ferrari (Project F150 aka F70).
When a company decides to create a new model they give a certain stylistic freedom to their designers to create their vision of that future vehicle, and Ferrari is no exception with the La Ferrari. When one design is chosen by the management team, board of directors or even the President, that single design gets to be detailed to a deeper level. But what you have below is the designs that never got to see the daylight.
The first image you can see below is, in my opinion, a better choice for the rear of the car, but unfortunately it wasn't the one to be produced. Enjoy the rest of the images and don't forget to tell us what you think. See more pictures in the Source.

Two supercars driven like they were a rally car... [Video]
This makes me so sad. In the videos that you can see below we have two of the best cars ever made (Gallardo and Enzo) being driven in conditions that are less than ideal for such cars. I know they have money and can do whatever they want to their own cars, but in my opinion those cars don't deserve the beating they got.
Check them out and tell us what you think.
