Here's your chance to own this one-of-one Koenigsegg Agera RS
When you have the kind of disposable income needed to afford a Koenigsegg, you likely have the extra cash to commission a one-of-one special edition. This is the case with this one-of-one 2018 Koenigsegg Agera RS 'Phoenix," originally commissioned for well-known entrepreneur and collector Manny Khoshbin to replace his previous one-of-one Koenigsegg sets this special edition apart from the others is its fully exposed carbon fiber body, 24-carat gold accents hand-applied by Italian master craftsman Ettore Callegaro, bespoke rear wing, and a plethora of other aero parts. The cabin sports plenty of Alcantara carbon fiber trim and more gold detailing to remind you of the exterior. The dashboard also features an embroidered "Phoenix" badge in the same font as the ones on the body. Phoenix also features the optional 1-megawatt package, which increases the horsepower figure of its 5.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 from 1,160 to 1,341. All of those horses scream through a 7-speed automatic transmission and a custom Ryft exhaust system, announcing your presence long before anyone actually sees you. You might be drooling, and so are we, but wait until you see the price tag. This Agera RS is being offered for sale by Vegas Auto Gallery for $4,999,999, so at least it's not $5 million. That's a hefty price tag, and it's likely that whoever can afford this has a few other cars like it in their garage. Manny later sold it for $4.1 million before that owner then listed it for sale through Pagani Beverly Hills for an undisclosed price. It should be noted that Manny initially wanted $5 million for it, but the value of such a unique masterpiece has likely appreciated since one thing to own a Koenigsegg Agera RS since only 27 units were ever produced, but owning a one-of-one Agera RS is an entirely different kind of flex. As one might expect, the odometer only shows 2,794 miles, so this car has not exactly been driven as much as Christian von Koenigsegg would probably want. It's likely that Phoenix will end up in the hands of a collector, and we can only cross our fingers that they will give it the road time it deserves. After all, what's the point of buying a 1,341 hp hypercar if you don't experience that kind of power semi-frequently? Love reading Autoblog?
