General History
This Koenigsegg CCX made its public debut at the 2007 Kuwait Motor Show. After that, this CCX was not seen for a while but it appeared again in May 2009, when it was spotted on the streets of Kuwait city.
The next time it surfaced, the car was at the Koenigsegg factory where it was detailed by the winners of the 3M Cleanest Car Competition in October 2010. Shortly after, the car was delivered to its new owner, who had it upgraded and the car got CCXS badges to acknowledge that; the S standing for its new owner. It is not entirely sure what was actually included in the upgrade but it is believed to have been quite extensive, but according to the owner, the work was not done at the factory.
The new owner took the car to Hungary, his home country, where the car was spotted numerous times.
In April 2011, the car was displayed at the Salzburgring circuit in Austria and after that it was spotted at another racetrack, the Hungaroring, in June 2011 now with its definitive license plate “KNSZAMI“. It also attended the Autó és Motor Show Debrecen in August 2011 and as the owner seems to like racetracks, it was spotted at the Red Bull Ring in Austria at the Ferrari Racing Days which were organized in September 2011.
The car is continuously appearing at events and remains in the hands of its second owner.
Exterior Spec
This CCX was finished in white with details like the front splitter, the sills and the Top Gear style rear wing executed in contrasting clear coated carbon fiber. The plate holder area at the back and the model call out badges are done in black as to match the clear coated carbon fiber details. The decorative badges behind the front wheel arches are done in silver and merely show the Koenigsegg crest. The "CCX" script on the model call out badges is carried out in polished aluminum.
This CCX has the windscreen washers in the exterior color and the front bonnet air intake executed in polished aluminum. It was initially fitted with the telephone dial wheels but these were exchanged for the 9-spoke wheels when converted from CCX to CCXS. The added S is orange colored as to match the interior color. Other upgrades include the addition of a pair of carbon fiber front winglets in front of the front wheel arches and the removal of a chromed logo which was initially fitted at the back of the car. The car currently has a few wrapped black and orange details, such as a center stripe and a black rear bumper.
Interior Spec
The interior of #7047 is almost entirely executed in one striking color, namely orange, which was never before used on a Koenigsegg. Some carbon accents are present, most noticeably the dashboard. At the conversion from CCX to CCXS the exterior changed but the interior was not altered and stayed the same over the years.
