The Hezemans team entered a Pagani in the Le Mans 24 Hours. The car was by FAR not race ready and gave up the ghost in lap 11 or so. Still an impressive machine. Jack |

$300K is a steal if it is really available and with the 7.3L engine (there were 7.2L and probably 6L models available in the past). I just had a nice cruise with the Zonda hardtop in my 456 this morning and the performance of this exotic is awesome. I reckoned only 50 roadster will be made and 25 hardtop had been made and sold.

There are great cars there. I have a friend in Germany who tells me it's 80% real. The other 20% are consignment cars not on the premises, just being represented by them. I called them up a few months ago to ask about the 6 McLarens they were advertising. Only 2 were on the floor. But that's still more than any other showroom in the world. The Pagani has been around for a while. I think you are seeing the roadster version for the first time, right? That is indeed new, and I think only 25 will be built, of which 3-4 have been delivered so far. I don't think there's any Pagani roadsters at Auto Salon. There's a Pagani in the US that's not supposed to be here. The Feds are on the trail, and the owner has put it up for sale for under 300k. A little birdie told me. |

There was one at Lime Rock two years ago. Its got an awesome Mercedes-Benzini motor in it and YES, that bundle of exhaust pipes is wild. I think it was silver. At the time we were told it belonged to a person who I have recently seen here on FC. |

I saw it at Goodwood too... I love that high up central four pipe exhaust cluster. I pity the pedestrian who chooses to cross the road behind it! |

The Pagani Zonda was even featured in an episode of "The amazing race" when the contestants visited Northern Italy. As they announced a ride in an exotic sports car, I was all exited thinking Ferrari. But no. There was also a Pagani at Goodwood this year. The car looks even better in real life. The hottest is the rear view, looks more like a rocket engine. |

Yes, six (6!!!) Enzos for sale. Is this place for real? I think it is. Unbelievable. How do they get all these cars? Probably consignment, but still. |

Hey. I came across a pretty cool site - they have "almost" all Ferrari models - in different color. Check it out - just click on the british flag, (this is a german site)....you figure it out. http://www.autosalon-singen.de |
