An almost unbelievable Koenigsegg combo, two Agera R supercars were Spotted in China in a maintenance facility in the great city of Shenyang in Liaoning Province.

The Swedish monster is painted in matte gray, and dressed up even further with blue racing stripes over the bonnet and wing, black carbon fiber mirrors, and all black propeller-blade alloys. The stripes on the bonnet continue inside over the top of the dash and over the seats.

The interior is blue. Alloys are black with white walls. The engine is of the 2011-2012 model and thus slightly less powerful than the engine in the other R. Here it delivers 1124hp  and 1100nm.
