The Zonda F is an awesome car. The price is steep (478000 Euros = $577424), but if you're seriously considering this car, then price really wouldn't be concerned about the price that much right? Plus, talk about exclusivity... Anyone know how much more to import and legalize the Zonda F for US roads? I think it's still cheaper than an Enzo.
In person, the quality is unmatched by any supercar I've ever seen including, but not limited to, the Enzo and McLaren F1.. By refering to the Zonda as a kit car because it uses a Mercedes powerplant, do you also feel the McLaren F1 is one too (BMW V12)?
the carbon fiber hand work on the car is without parallel....i saw one in person at pebble beach...however, at a distance, to most people, it would look like a kit car...the roadster has better lines...i love the interior,and the back, still dont like the head light treatment...if i were a rich man...{dont worry, i am not breaking out in my version of fiddler on the roof} i would still spend my 500-600k dollars elsewhere, like an f50...but you cant deny the great coach and chassis work and the exclusivity of the car..however, being a small, relatively unknown car maker, i would question the long term value of the car as a collector car....
Here's a shot I took of the Zonda "S" kit car at the Paris Auto Show: Image Unavailable, Please Login
If the zonda looks like a kit car here, then I don't know what to think about the murci, some sort of kindergarten arts and crafts project. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Dunno about coach or chassis work, but the fit n finish on the F50 I saw was absolutely intolerable. everything rattled, it was garbage...and i like that car!
Shiggins, great shots! Side by side, the zonda has so much more movement and grace compared to the murci. And don't get me wrong, I like the murci, esp in black, but give me a zonda anytime. Sure some of the design is over the top, but full on exotics are supposed to make a strong statement aren't they? Do you have similar pics with an enzo and a zonda?
you shld sit in one, and hear the engine. I think its worth every cent, If you have that kind of money to spare.
I haven't seen to many comparison shots with the Zonda. I have a couple of random monaco shots where they are both in them, but I am having trouble finding them. Here is a nice shot of the carbon fibre work. Apparently they won't make the bare carbon cars anymore because of how long it takes to line the weaves of each body panel up perfectly. Spectacular in person I would imagine. Image Unavailable, Please Login

I have sat in a C12S .Andi heard more than a few , and i wasnt impressed at all by the noise, but yes the finish is awesome but i seriously dont care that much in a supercar. Id rather they spend more on the engine than on the finish . Id have an F40 over those any day of the week. I dont care if it rattles or if i can see the glue on the naked cf..Its an F40 im driving ! .
