Sometime last year, a few Photoshop gurus got together and made some very funny “mini” versions of their favorite cars. The trend caught on, and soon lots of people were taking their favorite cars, and through the process of image manipulation, made them mini versions of themselves.
agani Zonda R with the engine cover removed at the 2009 SEMA Show in Las Vegas. This was the first time I have ever seen a Pagani! The carbon fiber was flawless and just so beautiful looking with all the different ribbon weaves between assembled parts. The engine bay as you can see is a work of art and an absolute engineering masterpiece.
I always thought that a flat black was for people who lived in trailer parks. Spray bombing your car in flat black is easy and easily conceals any imperfections, over spray and dirt that would otherwise be visible on a glossy home made paint job.
There were, between S and F, 12 Pagani Zonda (but I have seen only nine of these), a red Ferrari Enzo and a white-blue Spyker C8 Double12 S, obviously there was also the great Horacio Pagani, the man that has given to the world the possibility of see on road these masterpieces of motoring.

Here is a sweet little video of a red Pagani Zonda being dyno tested in Scottsdale Arizona at Dyno-Comp. I have yet to see any other videos on the web of a Pagani Zonda being dynoed, which could be why there was such a large audience watching this spectacular show!
This was a private meeting of Pagani Zonda owners organized by Horacio Pagani !!!
There were 14 Pagani Zonda's! (And a very rare purple Bugatti Veyron)
How does this rally compare to last weekends Crystal Cove Porsche Carrera GT drive where 14 Porsche Carrera GT's showed up? You decide :)
The limited-edition Zonda Cirque is one of the most exclusive vehicles in the world, with only five ever put up for sale. Peter Saywell is a man that wouldn't take "sorry sir, we're all sold out" for an answer. So, the story goes he commissioned Pagani to create a special one-off version, known as the Pagani Zonda PS (the man's initials.)
Surely you’ve heard about the Pagani Zonda - the Italian ultra-supercar a step above Ferrari and Lamborghini’s finest machines. Pagani decided that the regular Zonda wasn’t crazy or exclusive enough, and created the Zonda Cinque - an ultra-rare supercar made with no compromises. Now there's a Roadster edition...
The Cinque Roadster features a Mercedes-Benz AMG sourced V12 engine that's rated at 678 hp. This is mated to a Cima sequential 6-speed gearbox that has been robotized by Automac engineering. The dry weight is only 2,667 pounds. What all this really means is that the car can hit 62 mph in just 3.4 seconds, 124 mph in 9.6 seconds and reach a top speed of 217 mph.
Here is a short yet insane sounding Pagani Zonda R Video from the Monza track in Italy. If doesn’t give you a slight shiver and glimpse of how ridiculously awesome the new Pagani Zonda R is, then you should immediately find someone to drag you behind a shed and put you out of your misery. Don’t forget to checkout the Pagani Zonda R - Monza Track Pictures and the Pink Pagani Zonda spotted in Singapore in 2008.
Here are some photos of the recently completed Pagani Zonda R spotted at the Monza racetrack in Italy. Yes that is snow on the track as Monza is in the northern part of Italy which does see some season snowfall during the winter.
In the world of Pagani Zonda, the only thing more hardcore than a private gathering of 14 Pagani Zonda’s at Horatio Pagani’s Estate (see Vanishing Point Pagani Rally 2008 Pictures) or even a Pink Pagani Zonda is this Pagani Zonda R and these first official pictures!

The Pagani Zonda F has become the new king of Nurburgring. This amazing carbon fiber lightning quick Pagani Zonda F Clubsport has taken the title from the Porsche Carrera GT as the fastest production car to lap the Nurburgring.
