Koenigsegg's pure carbon-fiber supercar

Swedish supercar manufacturer Koenigsegg is prepping two special edition models for the upcoming Geneva Motor Show based on its CCX petrol and CCXR flex-fuel models. The new cars will go under the heading ‘Edition’ and will be limited to just 14 versions of the CCX and 6 units of the CCXR and are distinguished by their track-honed suspension, custom aero pieces and unpainted carbon-fiber bodies.

The CCXR maintains its 1018hp engine output but the CCX Edition gets a more powerful version of its twin-supercharged 4.8L V8 engine, now developing 888hp as opposed to the former 806hp. Both cars can accelerate from 0-60mph in just 2.9 seconds and reach speeds in excess of 240mph.

I've always liked the Koenigsegg's sound and i'm a fan of their doors. This carbon-fiber 'edition' is very nice as well. However owning one of these in North America would get me worried because of the servicing.
