It sucks, only one side view mirror. How can it even be remotely worth the money?

I've been fortunate to have seen a few Zondas in person and they are truly works of art. This car will be no different!

It is indeed something special but an RSR would be my choice if I was fortunate enough to have that kind of money to spend on a car

Interior is just epic.

Default The Pagani Huayra Story - Video Documentary

Some marketing, but overall, a FANTASTIC CAR, and great video showcasing the engineering and art that's gone into this new Pagani... love it!

It's too BIG! Waah, waah! It's not a true sports car, waah, waaaah! It's clearly a GT car!

I don't like the headlights so I won't buy one.

The interior is too luxurious what with all that aluminum and leather. It looks like a boat inside.

I think I'll throw a tamper tantrum because I don't like it.

meh. While an amazing car on the whole, i take issue with a few things.

1. amg 6L v12. Yes, a smooth and powerful engine...but one that can be had in a $40k 2006 Cl65. Further, this engine runs 22psi in stock form. In pagani form, it may even be a few more. From my experience, this engine is great for quick bursts on the highway, but I'm not sure its what I'd want for sustained lapping. I guess I'd prefer a less powerful but more interesting power plant.

2. that interior, while beautifully crafted and made from arguably the finest automotive leathers and aluminum bits is just plain fugly. Its just awful.

Its an absolutely badass car, there is no doubt, but If i had that kinda coin, i'd go elsewhere.

Definitely not a track car, but, it can do 1.5G lateral acceleration, probably the best in the world! I also have NEVER seen flaps used like that in a car, similar to an aircraft, it's pure genius!

Also, the engine is a modified version of SL 65 AMG Black Series, with smaller turbos actually for less turbo lag, while tuned to have more HP.

To me the interior is just out of this world! Yeah, some parts might be too much, but there's no other car on the planet that looks anything like it... and thats the point.

Overall, it's an incredible example of engineering, craftsmanship, design, and vision... will go down in history as one of the most exotic cars ever built and I BET will be collector's item appreciating in value.

Default Chris Harris & Pagani Huayra

The test starts off slow but as usual Chris is very entertaining & boy is this thing fast!

Hypercar...not many super rich hyperdrivers, most of the sales for Pagani will be body panel replacements..wheels with CL but looks good
Great clip to watch.
