What's the deal with Zonda's in the US?

That carbon fibre one looks amaaaazing. Thats exactly how i'd spec mine, even the interior would be the same:

Drooool

 

This car has been around for awhile, any more info regarding the apparent owner in Romania?

 

Christian Chivu? lol...

 

It is the second Pagani Zonda Roadster F made. The owner is Mr. Fernando Adrian Enciu.

Curious: does anyone here collects serialnumbers and histories of Pagani's??? Or knows someone who does???

 

I know someone but the info is not 100%. Sent me a pm with your email info and I can get you a copy.

 

Evan's post is correct regarding owner of cf car.

 

you stated "he finances himself".
now you say "if he has other ways of financing, i don't know it".
you would have to know if he has other ways of financing to know for sure that he finances himself.
wouldnt it be easier to just say, i don't know?

 

I was only saying that I KNOW he founded the Modena Design company, and that's what gives him enough funds for Pagani Automobili.
But i don't know if he finances Pagani Automobili with other activities and/or businesses.
That's all, maybe i am not clear 'cause my english sucks...

 

your english is pretty dang good!
wish i knew a second language as well!

best

Enjoy!!!!

(zonda16: I will email you later ...)

 

Nice pics so far....
I'll wait to hear from you.

 

I was just over in England at a place called High Wycombe and low and behold a silver Zonda on UK plates pulled out in front of me I followed it for a few miles to check it out and the car pulled into a private school. I guess some kids going to be very popular. It was raining as well!

 

Probably from Modena: http://www.racecar.co.uk/modenacars/

 

Be prepared for the new 2008 Pagani model: much more powerful and light than the actual Zonda F... And U.S. legal of course.
Large use of special metals such as carbon fiber, avional, inconel, nikasil...

 

What's the airbag requirement for a car to be legal in the US? Driver & passenger, or just driver?

 

inside info?
any more?

 

Basically you are saying more use of light weight alloy and lighter cylinders for a higher output engine similar to the materials used in the F-50 engine?
This will definitely increase the cost of the vehicle, I know Pagani never said it would be cheaper but this new car may cost a lot more than current Zondas, plus who knows what else they may plan for this car. I can’t wait to hear more.

 

well they plan the new Zonda X which shall be fired by the popular V12 turbocharged engines known from the AMG Models. It shall be competition to Bugatti's Veyron coming up with approx. 1000 bhp.

 

?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
??????????????????????????????????????????

 

LOOOL...

 

I thought AMG only used Kompressors, not turbochargers...

 

I agree, where the hell did you get that info?

 

So did I

 

Please please please correct me if i'm wrong....


you guys know so much compared to me...i've learned so much about the Zonda from this thread...


but...regarding the AMG question...don't the new 65's use bi-turbo's?

 

AMG has been putting twin turbos on V12s since 2000. The 7.3 has always been naturally aspirated so if Pagani wants forced induction then I suspect they'll have to choose a version with smaller displacement, unless Pagani wants to re-design the engines themselves.
