Christ, the 458 is a fast car but that Agera is just on a whole different level. The perfect example of what makes the difference between a supercar and a hypercar.

Wow that Koenigsegg is quick. The Ferrari does sound absolutely tremendous though.

I would hope the 458 driver knew that the Koenigsegg would be much faster than his car before they started.

Quite a stunning display. Not as if a 458 is tardy.

Bit pointless imo given the power differential.

Give the 458 1000HP at the rear wheels with a bit of help from Underground Racing costing A LOT less than the Agera and my money is on the 458 UR smile

Amazing.

Who would have thought a 1100HP, £1,000,000 Koenigsegg would have been faster than a 560HP, £180,000 Ferrari in a drag race?

EFA there I think...

(That Koenigsegg really does shift though doesn't it biggrin )

If anyone ever asks the difference no explanation is needed, just show them that video.

I find it very odd that some people have thoroughly missed the point here....

'lol annoyed Ferrari owner'.

Surely the point is to show just how quick the Agera is by benchmarking something we know to be stonkingly quick, then giving it a bit of a mauling.

Exactly.

It is even more impressive than the old Clarkson Diablo/Golf Gti one.

Yep, that was the idea. You never know what kind of reactions you'll get on a PH though!

A £15,000 Ducati does it the same as the Koenigsegg too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPNs3v4m7TA About 2:40 ish or so in (youtube is playing up and not running smoothly for me at the mo to find out)

The Koenigsegg is seriously impressive though!
