This Saturday in Landsdale/Hatfieldish area around 630p.m i think i saw what might have been a Koenigsegg...rear engine, huge hood scoop, orange with a black racing stripe on the drivers side. no emblems at all on the back. anyone else possibly seen it before or know what it might be...

supraghost · 10-25-2010, 02:03 PM

i doubt it

Johara2320 · 10-25-2010, 02:27 PM

I also doubt it. I've come to terms with the fact that thats a car that I'll never see on the road. If it was a Koenigsegg, congratulations, but doubtful.

BlkWhtTSI · 10-25-2010, 02:27 PM

Doubtful man those cars are redic though.

If this is what you saw I commend you for not crashing... i most certainly would of wet my pants and crashed into something

supraghost · 10-25-2010, 03:12 PM

and why would a rear engine car have a huge hoodscoop lol.

Cooling and downforce.

unless it's from pepboys. Science has proven time and time again that adding a pepboy's stick on hood scoop adds more power than a turbo set-up (1).

it was def. no car ive ever seen before, i looked up all past models of Koenigsegg's and it doesnt match anyof them but very close. there were no pep bpys **** on it but it could be a kit car i will search around and see if i can find a picture of it. trust me this thing is legit i barely saw the emblem on the front and it was the same shape as the koenigsegg but then again alot of emblems are in the shape of a shield...

96exvtech · 10-25-2010, 07:21 PM

after some research i think it might have been a "Factory Five GTM Supercar"

rodder · 10-27-2010, 12:59 PM

maybe an ultima gtr?

TalonTsi97 · 10-27-2010, 01:10 PM

Maybe a fiero with a conversion kit to look like a exotic? lol
I'm curious to see what you saw. I knew there is a Noble or two in the area

renn · 10-27-2010, 01:50 PM

op your signature is making my ocd go off, there is no tilde over the n in habanero.

james_ls · 10-27-2010, 02:35 PM

Not a Konigsegg.

There's very few registered to the states at all, and I think only one or two on the entire coast.

Exactly what I was thinking before I even saw this post.

ummm defintly not a noble...it looked the closest to a Factory five GTM Supercar. but not exactly... the top of the trunk was flater and there was a third brake light in between the tail lights. besides that it looked alot like it but im not certain this was it. it looked brand new and im 99% sure it was definitly not a Fiero conversion kit. ill keep looking to see if i can find it. any pictures or suggestions are welcome.

96exvtech · 10-27-2010, 06:13 PM

i found the car it was a rossion Q1

it was the same color and everything just no wing. i am 100%; sure this is the same car.

JB'sLGT · 10-27-2010, 06:29 PM

Rossion bought the rights to the Noble M400. The Q1 is the M400, so it could have been either. Cool spot though.

96exvtech · 10-27-2010, 06:36 PM

yeah true it could have been either.. nice cars though

97TurboDSM · 10-27-2010, 07:18 PM
