Try to race one... at Le Mans or so... Ooops.... Hezemans tried already... Estimate was that it would last no longer than 9 hours... Mechanics whispered in my ear it wouldn't last 9 laps... Truth was it came back to the pits after 10 laps and that was it... Honesty demands that there is not much Pagani in the race car itself and the engine is ofcourse MB but still, it will take a long way to develop that car into a serious contender in long-distance-racing espcially since MB (Norbert Haug) refuses to give support on the engine.

Uh...Des, I don't think the designers had cupholders in mind. Come to think of it, neither the 512TR, Mondial, nor 911 cabrio has cup holders. I certainly hope the paperwork is finished soon so he can take it out. Who knows, if he gets the paperwork done this week, he may take it out this weekend. I will certainly try and get a test drive or at least a ride in it. I will be more than happy to fill you on the details if that comes to pass. Michael, are you really in Hong Kong right now? How long are you here for? You are more than welcome to join me and Ming on our Sunday AM drives. PM me for more details. |

Looks awesome to me. Even if you don't like it, you have to admit that that interior is a rolling work of art. Knowing that the Zonda backs that up with some of the best performance in the world just makes the car that much more appealing. On top of everything else, it's supposedly quite driveable and forgiving. Well, gotta go, time to buy lotto tickets! ;) |

Peter, that's awesome, you rock...! Um, but no cup holders, huh...? When does he get to take it out of the showroom for some fun...? Will you get a ride...? Do you promise to tell us all about it...? Oh, and remember, people: Carbon is cool.  |

Pedals alone are a work of art, and the carbon work looks TOP notch from where I sit. I do have one question though, carbonfibre on TOP of leather in the center console? That's a bit much. Otherwise though, the carbon is allowed... The Pagani is a carbon-tub car! (think Enzo, F1, and F50) |

I'd love to take a look at the car and perhaps get a ride because I'm in Hong Kong right now. But $hit, I can only dream. |

Nicely done. Interior has always been a Zonda strong point, IMO. Though maybe they've gone a bit Type R with all the carbon on this particular car. |

I wasn't willing to see that much quality and cool interior when i clicked on the topic. |

I really like that interior! Exterior is pretty good - could be better... but for $350k, that seems like a real nice car. Interesting that they peg their competition as the Aston V12, Saleen and the koenigthingshingping. I'm surprised there is no Murcie, Enzo, Mosler and very surprised they don't list track times (which seems to be the Zonda's strong suit) |

The interior ( and the engine ) of the Zonda are what really turn me off . It looks like a Miami house deco ... |

The quality of finishing looks very good, but more utilitarian than fancy. Only time can tell how well the car will hold up as it ages. The car screams carbon fiber everywhere. |

Went to see my friend's Zonda the other day. Had a chance to sit in it and it feels tight but comfortable nonetheless. Getting in and out is a bit tricky though, as the door sill is very wide. As the car is still in the showroom, so couldn't take any decent exterior pics of the car, but here are some interior pics. Enjoy!
Check these pedals out!
Look where the speedo ends!
