employee joyrides a Koenigsegg...what could possibly go wrong?

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.:pat:

In addition to getting a brand new car, I would have choke someone till they pass out as my only retribution.

nothing else would please me!

im sure he can buy another one or two, but i think waiting list wont make it any better for him...
this is why i wait at mechanics all the time so no little apprentices get to joyride it for no reason at all...

^^same here, I don't trust them any further than I'd be able to throw em'^^
-sucks to see that, he'll probablly be in that "looking" phase of employment for quite some time. Could you imagine having THAT on your resume, LOL. The definition of a liability...sorry pal, we aren't hiring. Sucks.

Forget looking for another job....he's probably looking for a cave to hide in, because the owner of the car probably put a price on his head.
