    Koeniggseg provided the CCX to market their car because at that time they were just being introduced into the US market officially and Arabs aren't too fond of Koeniggseg either Click here to enlarge For them it was necessary to let Top Gear test the car.

    I think Pagani is another brand that let them drive their factory Zonda, not too sure but.

    And yeah, as Orion said...the Veyron is a mightily capable car on the race track; combine low center of gravity with the width of it and the width of the tyres and you have almost F1 grip levels, despite the 1800kg weight of mass.
    You got romance. You got the boots. So, I just gotta ask. Can I get in your pants?

    A Veyron video on a twisty track is something I'd like to see too Click here to enlarge

    All I've ever seen is straight line track runs - yes it's awesome and can kill anything out there Click here to enlarge (most recent one I put up in another thread of a Veyron going up against the new M3 - what a total slaughter job LOL) but would be good to see how good it can handle the twisty stuff - hopefully Top Gear will eventually get its hands on one for this task Click here to enlarge
