Koenigsegg CCR Evo Ride Through Monaco

One lucky car enthusiast got a chance to go for a ride in the brutal Koenigsegg CCR Evo through the streets of Monaco during the Top Marques 2012 event. The Swedish brute is powered by a 891-hp twin-supercharged V8 which, under hard acceleration, will make your eyeballs touch the headrest. It also gets a shorter gearbox which, while reducing the top speed slightly, makes the car accelerate even quicker and makes it a lot easier to drive normally.
Pay attention to 1:35 into the video, as the car enters the famous F1 tunnel while accelerating vigorously with an amazing soundtrack behind it. The driver takes the car back to the tunnel at 2:40, slows it down and then floors it through the first part of the tunnel.

We also found another, rather funny video, in which another Koenigsegg accelerates into the tunnel and scares a woman who was standing on the sidewalk just as the car went in..
