Ferrari 599 GTO, Koenigsegg Agera, McLaren MP4-12C

I won't bore you with tonnes of pictures/videos, but the 3 cars that impressed me most against my expectations from the Goodwood Festival of Speed were definitely;

1) McLaren MP4-12C

This car really grows on you; first time I saw it I thought "meh whatever", but now the looks really do seem great:

2) Koenigsegg Agera

I saw my first one of these at the Geneva Motorshow but wasn't very impressed with it there either; looked too similar to the old K'eggs and couldn't see why you'd bother, but hearing it and seeing it again it really did look quite impressive:

3) Ferrari 599 GTO

You expect the 599 GTO to be just a 599 with a bit more on it, but it really is a 599 with a bit more on it, taking an already great car and makes it even better; wow:

Ahh but you see I didn't comment on the Reventon because I expected it would be incredible, it was about in line with my expectations.

The onlookers on the McLaren picture don't look too interested !

Anyone else do the MP4-12C introduction at the MTC in woking yesterday and today?

Seeing an Aston One77 on Sunday and the McLaren for the first time were my highlights amongst the Supercars. Have to say the Konigsegg is barely any different from what's gone before.
