Upping the induction pressure is nothing to be impressed about. Maybe they should actually spend time on making the car controllable...

After Top Gear tested the car with the tiny wing, they found that it was soooo much better, enough too actually keep it on the track. although, still not perfect. I think with the new wing it should handle a lot better, and be far more controllable in the higher speeds, which this car was made for, going fast.

 this car with the spoiler is faster than nearly any supercar of today round a track... this spoiler is what makes it fast too

heres the evidence and heres the reference, the car was driven by an unnamed ex Formula 1 driver- http://www.topgear.com/content/tgonbbc2/laptimes/thestig/

Fastest lap - Caparo T1 (was disqualified as driving it on normal roads is near impossible)

1:10.6

2nd Fastest lap - Ultima GTR (was not allowed on top gear)

1:12.8

 lol obviously... you can say that about the Ferrari FFX and they Bugatti Veyron though...

Its not designed as a follow-up to your average 3-door hatchback or a 5 year old ford mondeo haha

If I had the money and I wasn't on the sales list for the Ferrari FXX or high enough on the waiting list for the Veyron, I would buy this car... no doubt about it.

 The N�rburgring isn't a track, its a road like La Sarthe where Le Mans is held so that would be even more innacurate, otherwise you would have Formula 1 races there etc... Besides the Radical SR3 would beat the Koenigsegg on the N�rburgring, which is why the top gear times are good at comparing it to other road cars as the Caparo T1 and Radical SR3 cannot be driven on all roads as they are too wide and close to the ground. Ill find some track times of the Koenigsegg at Monza or Suzuka then that should settle this lol

It still burns fuel. It may be a cleaner buring fuel, but at full throttle, the difference is minimal.

nitrous2oxide, the topgear-track is too small to really know if it IS the fastest. of what i know, the koenigsegg isn't too far up the list on n�rburgring track times...
If the CCX can do good on a SMALL track.... Just think what its going to do once you acually let it loose on a big ass track with a lot of big straights like the nurburgring. I also doubt they tested it with a rear wing and 200 extra horse power either. But then again, they might need a little more than just a rear wing to make up for the 200 extra horsepower that they gave this beast.

 Fellas I would just like to note that the car actually weighs 1280 kg not 1330 kg as stated in the fact sheet. This car is a work of excellence, the best super car to date
