[@bzdtemp]

Yes. I really like how open and friendly Königsegg are about how they do things, videos like this and for example the ones where Christian explains and shows their free-avalve tech, how they did the Regera hybrid "clutch" and more. I know that unless there is a substantial lotto winning in my future I'm unlikely to ever own a Königsegg, but getting to learn about them is very cool.

[@ShadowRomeo1784]

Koenigsegg has been doing this since the start i guess. I mean just watch Drive series about Agera's production. And also Koenigsegg has the How to made series episode as well. But so does Bugatti with their Veyron though.

"Good for him" - Christian von Koenigsegg on John Hennessey

[@ueehurstonsecurity8887]

side by side ide say Hennessy is an engine manufacturer in comparison to christian being a car maker. hennesys cars never perform very well on track compared to Christians cars. compared to standard road cars sure Hennessys cars are in another league and will douse any commuter street car on a circut. but pitted up against a agera RS or 1:one he makes the venom and his new f5 or whatever its called look like a glorified drag car. Edit: this is my opinion btw so i hope im wrong and Hennessy really makes an incredible car this time, the Venom GT was a little underwhelming

The cabin is an exquisite place to be, not only is the carbon done perfectly, the leathers and fabric are so well put together, that I totally understand Christian's comment re 'we're profittable, but not massively so'.

Hennessy will never be on this level. There’s much more to a car than how fast it can go. The attention to detail and engineering that go into Koenigseggs is unparalleled.

Define best. It's not the best for my mom because it's not economic and can't hold much luggage and it's too expensive.

I like how he’s humble when he mentioned Hennessy it’s cool to see both small companies build and develop these amazing hyper cars

[@AnthonyBennettKY]

Hennessy is a crook from way back - approaching 20 years. Takes customer cars apart and cannibalizes them for project/magazine/tv vehicles. Then, marks them up to celebrities for exposure. Rinse and repeat. How, he stays in business is amazing.

[@punkem733]

Koenigsegg, in their short time of existence, has become the best car manufacturer ever. This small company is pushing the limits, and state of the art, with the greatest hyper cars ever.

[@MDDeGrande1994]

Hell, even their FIRST production car (the CC8S) already went almost 400 km/h (384, to be more precise), on a highway in Texas in the early 2000s, I think. And it's still the highest speed that's even been reached on the highway. How IMPRESSIVE is that?

I really enjoyed learning all about the Jesko direct from Christian ... ... a couple of months ago on Shmee's and MrJWW's channels. Their videos were of equal quality and equally detailed. Why do Top Gear need two months to edit their video?

[@Spazik86]

These KZbinrs are not TV quality, nowhere near it.

[@veemacks7255]

@@Spazik86 There's no difference in quality between this and those. Go check 'em out (you'll have to scroll down a long way to find the Koenigsegg videos though, it was a long time ago). Remember, *this* isn't Top Gear TV we're watching here.

[@jamieg7874]

I personally can't stand shmee

[@MarcCoteMusic]

It likely doesn't take very long to edit the videos. I suspect it's more a matter of scheduling uploads so the Top Gear stuff doesn't get lost in the flood of videos that tend to come out within a day or so of each other, sometimes within an hour or so. So the subject of the video isn't new... but at least they aren't competing with a dozen or two others. As for Spazik86's comment, the JWW video, at least, is certainly of broadcast quality. There's nothing in this Top Gear video that surpasses that one. Also, as stated by Vee Macks, this is for the Top Gear 'magazine', not the TV show.

[@Ultrakillerism]

BBC is state-owned, so no wonder they do things slower than the private sector, ie Shmee and JWW

Very pleased with the continued quality of Top Gear as a show. Phenomenal production values here. The opening story about how to arrive to the factory was awesome. If I hadn’t known a little bit about Koenigsegg from past KZbin videos then, I would have thought the opening was a bit of humour. (:

0:48 It's a Saab J35 Draken and the Ghost squadron isn't the oldest fighter squadron, it's the 81.fightersquadron

[@sebastiansensei1926]

81. squadron was in div. 1 in Royal Svealand Air Force Wing. After the reorganize in the air force it became one of the first wings created 1938. At that time only one wing for fighters was created and 81. squadron was the first squadron in that wing. So it's for sure the oldest fighter squadron in Sweden.
