    I am currently in Barcelona right now but I will be heading to Monaco and the Bologna to visit the Ferrari and Lamborghini Museums in about a week. While I am there, I would love to visit the Pagani Factory. I am wondering if I need to arrange anything before I go, and if so...how do I go about doing that?? Any helpful information would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you.

    Well, my gues is you should contact them before anyway.

    Now, if you HAVE a big FCar, like a 550, 575, 530, or better F40,50,Enzo, you can tell them you could consider buying a Zonda.
    Another way, if you don't have any of the above and are honest, it to send them a mail and tell them blablabla you're a big fan, you love their cars, the way they're made, and that you make a loooooong travel just to have a chance to see them etc etc.
    It's a small factory, i mean, chances are you will meet the person that will reply to your mail, and they're still humans...

    and maybe they'll think that one day, given a way or another, you could become a customer if they treat you right

    If you are going to be in Modena you might also think about visiting the Matteo Panini collection. This consist of all the cars there were in the Maserati Museum at the point that FIAT took over.

    You can pretty much ask most anybody in Modena how to get there. I would highly recomend that you stay at one of the suites at the CanalGrande http://www.canalgrandehotel.it/gb/main.htm.

    Good luck

    I was at Pagani & met Horacio Pagani, cool guy, turns out he is a friend of a friend from Buenos Aires

    Tell him the last 25th Anniversary Countach is your favorite Lambo. He was the designer that refreshed it

    The family still owns the hotel, and it is where DeTomaso lived for many years.
