Trivia
This exterior color choice was pretty popular on the early Ageras. Chassis #077 the factory prototype, #079 which is this Agera and chassis #082 look identical from numerous angles. However the trained eye can distinguish them.
The factory prototype #077 has the “Medium Sized” spoiler while #079 and #082 wear the twin deck F1 style spoiler. The easiest way to differentiate #079 from #082 is the latter got upgraded to an Agera R specification with the R badge on the exterior of the car.
This car is rumored to share its garage with #087, another mysterious Agera R, as a part of one of the most impressive collections of modern supercars.
