Yeah, but I bet that 2x4 is hand crafted from a special wood especially developed and grown in the Himalayas. Its selected from trees that grow at a precise and secret distance above sea level which enables its unique grain pattern to grow in such a way that it ensures the perfect, correct and accurate hood supporting abilities required for even weight distribution.

Seeing companies like Koenigsegg makes me wanna start my own car company. The best thing about having your own car company is that you can design your dream car and actually own it, and then sell it and make profit.

I think I'm a couple years older than Christian, and I always had the same dream- to create a supercar company in my homeland that was all me... I was told that I had to drive NHRA, SCCA, IMSA, to get a feel of the cars while I was attending school to be a mechanical engineer, then go Indy, CART, Formula 1, etc. I was very fortunate to be able to get a ride in several sports with awesome sponsors, but none of them were even a little bit interested in me making cars. That's where I must hand it to Christian. I'm proud of him!!! It goes to show we don't need multi-billion dollar companies to make every decision for us! Funny enough, had I not spent so much time trying to do everything people told me had to be done- and the cash associated with, I could probably buy a KOENIGSEGG... or TWO!!!

3:19 the Regera has a heave spring and/or damper in the rear suspension... Connects the two rockers together so when the wheels go up or down together they actuate the spring and/or damper to get different spring/damping rates than when an individual tire moves by itself... Very cool... just noticed it.
