Think you have the balls to take it for a spin?
Somewhere in New York an auto dealership employee is almost certainly looking for a job now that he’s wrecked one of the world’s rarest supercars.

The car in question is an 806-horsepower Koenigsegg CCX, a car so exclusive the Swedish boutique automaker — which, by the way, is buying Saab from General Motors — builds just 25 annually. Of those, a mere 10 arrive in the United States. They go for about one mil apiece.

According to WreckedExotics.com, the owner of this 2008 model left it at the dealership, presumably to have some work done. That’s when an employee with more stones than skills took it for a spin and hit a guard rail. As if that weren’t enough, he also took out a new Porsche GT2.

Thanks to WreckedExotics for the pic. If you haven’t checked out the site, it’s a great place to kill some time at work. Not that we do that, of course.

    Geez, such a beautiful car :(

    And I remember back in my (regular) Xbox live days I used to love this car in PGR2, if I still remember my ranks/scores should still be in the top 200 :)

    Ouch! I wonder the dealership has an insurance policy to cover such exotic cars wrecked by one of it's monkey-brained employee.

    When I worked at Trump National Golf Club here in NJ I used to get to drive all kinds of exotic cars. Of course I never damaged one but one kid thats worked for me ripped up the undercarriage of a Bentley GT. I should have fired him but he was a great kid and our member was not upset. Since I no longer work there any longer I can admit this, a fellow employee who also no longer is employed there took Mr. Trumps Rolls for a ride. I looked at the speedometer, I was not driving, and in a matter of what seemed like seconds the speedometer read 130 mph and it was like we were standing still. Then there was the Porsche Carrera GT which is a good story but has to be kept a secret forever. Now that is a true race car on the public roads.

    I kid I used to have working as a porter for me in Los Angeles destroyed A Corvette Z-06 by hitting a bus and several parked cars at more than 100mph. The kid walked from the car, but not from the law. He got 10 years in prison for his efforts.

    Wow, that's so sad. It's really a toss up for me between the Koenigsegg and the McLaren F1. One of them is my dream supercar. Mercedes CLK-GTR probably finishing up right behind them.

    GT2 ain't no slouch, either!!
