IIRC they build ~25/yr, so that waiting list might get pretty bad. -Ben

I'm currently crewing for Carsport America. Carsport fields a Viper GTS-R and the only Pagani Zonda in ALMS. Beautiful car powered by a V12 Merc. Definitely one of my favorites. |

Nice looking car and a great bargin compared to an F-1. The big fault I have with the Zonda and F1 is that they don't design their own engines, choosing to use Mercedes AMG motors. Seem more like kit cars in that respect. I would be very dissapointed if Ferrari used MB engines even if they happened to have more power or could be made more reliable. I guess it would be nice to have easy access to engine service along side all the c230 hatchbacks... |

The latest issue of Autoweek says that someone will be racing a Zonda in the ALMS this year... or maybe it was Grand Am, but either way, it should be exciting. -R |

I used to know of a guy in SoCal who could bring them in. I had a client who was interested in a Zonda or a 959... chose the 959. Go figure. LOL |

The Zonda is an awesome car. You need to take a trip to Modena and get company test driver to take you for a spin. I have never seen a car pull away from me that fast. |

We need to add the "hot car rule" to the "hot babe/guy rule" -- include a small picture and/or easily-used-link with your initial post. |

There was a Pagani at the FOC Spring luncheon in NY 2 years ago. Joe Nastasi brought it there. I think he will be the Distributer in the area. |

Before buying a Pagani , there are some Ferraris that i would buy first . It wouldnt stand a chance against a 288 , F40 , F50 ,Enzo, 550 Barchetta , 275 GTB , Daytona , 355 Challenge if i had to choose between those and the Pagani. |

The Zonda S is supposed to be legalized for sale here in the US pretty soon. As for myself, I think its a absolutely beautiful car and has amazing performance for the right price. Of course I'm still in college and can't afford one for a while, so I'm curious to know which one of you is to be so lucky (?). |
