Oh, the Swedes.

Since this is my very first post, I thought it would be fitting to talk about something not only cool, but downright epic.
Thats right, it's the brand new Koenigsegg Agera R. This Swedish super-car made its unveiling at Geneva this year, and all I can say is "Wow". The Agera R has a whopping 1115 hp, the theoretical top speed of 273 mph (I say theoretical because it hasn't yet been tested) and the astonishing weight of 2,932 lbs. That, in case you were wondering, is 1,120 less than the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport (the beast holding the current record for the fasted production car) which should translate to the Agera knocking the Veyron off of its pedestal as it's only 85 hp short of the reigning champ. As for pricing, the Agera R will run you about $1,600,000... Mere pocket change, right?

Oh, and I almost forgot to mention... It's "eco-friendly", meaning it can be run on E85 Ethanol Bio-fuel.
