message: Does anyone have a link to this logo?  It is a sweet image, and seems pointless to mention it in the article if it is only seen on some of the cars and unsearchable on the net for the icon alone — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikimuku (talk • contribs) 03:37, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

message: * How do you pronounce it. Im sure alot of people other than me would want to know this.
:*I dunno how they want it to be pronounced themselves, but being Norwegian, I pronounce it with a nordic ö/ø sound in place of the "oe". Can probably make a recording of it, but I have no idea how to write it in IPA. κаллэмакс 20:01, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: In my mind's ear that's actually quite close to the way the TG presenters say it (kuere-nigks-egg, rather than the earlier description), seeing as they give the impression of the car being handed over in person they may have had instruction on how to say it properly :) one hopes, anyway. 82.46.180.56 (talk) 22:47, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The majority of British and American journalists refer to it as (Ko-niggs-egg). However, I have worked with the Swedish body in white engineers, and they all refer to the car as (Kerr-nick-segg). δ²(Talk) 14:20, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

message: JFTR, the Wall Street Fighter reference in this article used to say something completely different from what was actually in the article. I've fixed this problem for now; see my diff. --Gp75motorsports REV LIMITER 10:48, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: ER NO - this is totally incorrect. Think about it. 272mph? in texas? in a car that has been only proved to do 242mph on a purpose built track? faster than proven speed of SSC Ultimate? I think not. A more accurate reference is the one that I am replacing it with, the reporting of Jeremy Clarkson, presenter of UK's Top Gear. I will provide a secondary reference, but the main reference is Season 8, episode 1 for this information. Or, the other one is Gumball 3000 - The movie.  Tell you what, don't take my word for it, look here at the information already. δ²(Talk) 12:30, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

message: When the Koenigsegg CCR was released it sold for around $1 000 000, right? About three weeks later it was on sale for about $720 000. What's the deal with the big price change so quickly? B375 (talk) 10:24, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

I had no idea how to edit something like this so I figured I'd let you guys know about this.

I don't have any references or links to show this is wrong, but... it's clearly impossible. Even a top fuel dragster takes 2.2 seconds to hit 200 MPH.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ingling (talk • contribs) 21:14, 9 April 2018 (UTC)

the reference 3 (from "Nettavisen") doesn't mention "Pinchcliffe..." so much as a Norwegian investor buying 45 % of Koenigsegg. Perhaps notthat important, but ...

message: I figured that since Bugatti has a road car timeline for their fairly sparse lineup, it would make sense to make one for Koenigsegg considering they have produced significantly more models over their 20 years of existence. Thoughts? Criticisms? Aab254 (talk) 21:51, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

message: Removal or sources needed tag based on "Specific tags are far more useful than tagging the entire article when much of it is sourced." Agree, but that would be at least 16 instance. In addition, the second removal was because of "then specific section/para tags can be added for those instances, the article has 70 references." Okay, that would be 5 sections and 5 tags then. As stated, it is best to use the general tag. An article having 70 references in various places does not negate that the article as a whole needs more sources. CNMall41 (talk) 01:57, 5 May 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: The alternative would be to just remove the unsourced content, especially with the tone of the wording. Was trying to avoid it and instead tag it for anyone wishing to address the issue. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CNMall41 (talk • contribs) 01:59, 5 May 2023 (UTC)
replies: text:  Per Template:More citations needed, . Since this article already have 70 refs and I think that's more than just "some" reference, so I don't think it'll be appropriate to put  tag. Also, WP:FIXTHEPROBLEM also suggest to at least put .  tag also makes easier for other editors to fix the problem in the future. Ckfasdf (talk) 08:51, 7 May 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. Specific instances of  on the facts that you think need referencing tells us far more what you want than a vague "needs more".  Stepho  talk  09:01, 7 May 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Both editors above echo my reasoning for reverting the tag, it just seems low effort to tag the entire article as needing more references rather than identify the specific instances when the article has 70 references. TylerBurden (talk) 10:36, 8 May 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Update: I have tagged several specific instances of content lacking inline citations, it took a few minutes of effort. I think that should be problem solved, now it would just be good if work can be done to verify and either remove or add citations for these instances. I will look into it myself if I find myself having some spare time. TylerBurden (talk) 10:43, 8 May 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Not exactly a consensus but if you are cleaning it up I won't object as cleanup is the goal. There are a few paragraphs where the CN tag was not applied but I will leave it to you. --CNMall41 (talk) 20:22, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I have added several sources as well, feel free to help, it does a lot more than adding tags. TylerBurden (talk) 10:54, 10 May 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Not sure if you intended, but sounds snarky. I will take a look in a few days as you said you were doing some cleanup so didn't want to come in and do anything that may seem counterproductive to your efforts. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CNMall41 (talk • contribs) 03:00, 11 May 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Sorry if you took it that way, but I didn't mean to be snarky. I genuinely meant it as I saw that you had added a source earlier yourself, so you may know of more, and as you know adding citations does do a lot more as it directly solves a problem rather than highlighting it. I have no problem with people working alongside me so don't worry about that aspect. TylerBurden (talk) 10:49, 11 May 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Understood. Thanks for clarification. I added a cite but then when I looked and saw how much of it was not sourced, decided to tag it instead of spending hours trying to cite everything. Good luck and if I get time I will go over and see what I can do. Cheers!--CNMall41 (talk) 23:40, 11 May 2023 (UTC)
