Meh! Another day, another hyperwhatever

The motor is quite impressive. Perfect fit for rice, rice, baby...
Re: Koenigsegg's Free-Valve Tech
The innovation on this car is awsome, it's all about the tech; freevalve engine plus electric, 4-people hypercar but still light and aerodynamic. Very different from your usual hypercar.

Here is an image of the cylinder head on his Saab 9-5. By the way, I have since bought a second Saab 9-5 wagon. It is the rarest of the bunch, literally 1 of 1. It is getting a full build with a theme of Dodge Brass Monkey where all the chrome and wheels will be satin Bronze
