"Cook! Get me a Koenigsegg!"
"Getting one sir!"
A few days later, a hungry monarch in Skandinavia threw his nut as he saw some weird car rolling through his front gates...

A swedish car brand that makes infinitely faster, sexier, and better looking cars than Bugatti ever will. Also, it's ironic that these guys literally have the word "egg" in their name, and their main competitor (Bugatti) makes cars that legitimately look like driving eggs!!!!!
Fanboy: hey look at my bugatti veyron HurR DuRr itS tHe FasTeST!!!
Sensible human being: no bruh, this Koenigsegg Jesko is way faster and sexier than your dumb veyron you stupid bitch.

The BEST exotic car company, the older models consist of the CC, CC8S, CCX, CCR, CCXR EDITION, ETC.
The newer models, Jesko, Gemera or an Agera, are very cool aswell, I recommend the gemera for a family, it has a 3 Cylinder engine that can hit 250 MPH (or somewhere around there)
The rival to the company, Bugatti (e u g h, overrated) has never Made a family car, are more expensive.
Koenigseggs maker, Christan Von Koenigsegg is bald.
Also the chance of seeing one is low considering in 2020 the entire line of koenigseggs models Koenigsegg only made under 150 cars.
