El Mañana, of Nuevo Laredo, reported Sept. 1 that Leonardo Padilla Santa Maria, 41, and Juan Pablo Ocampo were headed to Monterrey when they lost control of their red CCX. The car, which had Mexico City license plates and is reportedly the only Koenigsegg in the country, was damaged beyond repair. Mexico News Daily reported that the car had 1,721 miles on it.
