The price for the 888 hp CCX is 1 330 000 Euro, and 1 500 000 Euro for the 1018 hp CCXR (E85/petrol flex fuel) version. The two first of each version are already spoken for.

it's hilarious- the Stig now listens to "learn to speak Itallian" while blasting through the test track. At first the raw power of the CCX had him braking early and not really pushing it but then he thought that he could go faster. That's when he fishtailed and lost the turn and went through a tire wall and into the grass. I wouldn't want to foot that bill for the carbon fiber front end but I think they can afford it.

That was from a year ago...
The fastest car they tested on top gear is the same Koenigsegg with a wing...

^ yeah, and the wing was added because of the Stig crash. Supposedly he said he would not test it again unless they fixed the rear lift.
