2012 Pagani Huayra
The eternity of the element air. Soft and stylish, but the wind can erode even the hardest materials birth to distinctive forms known in the wild. Sleek and muscular Pagani Huayra merges past, present and future in a timeless interpretation of the art car.
The style of the car has been improved over the five years to find each line of the start and end. During this investigation, eight models created, and two models 1:01, each a little further development of the past in an endless quest to perfect the shape and refining of the substance.
Bi-xenon headlights are just one of many precious gifts of the Zonda R, and LED daytime running lights are completely integrated into the elliptical shape of the design. The rear bumper is integrated with the station and is dominated by an elliptical structure around the central four exhaust outlets, is becoming a feature of Pagani.
Backbone
Plants in the new unibody Huayra Pagani is a completely new carbontitanium. However, with the butterfly doors gash on the roof, the research has focused on achieving high levels of rigidity in the application of new advanced composite materials and technologies of the first test of the Zonda R. The fuel tank is located entirely within the protected zone of the monocoque, behind the driver, reinforced safety cell in different composite materials and ballistics. Front and rear sub-frame provides exceptional strength to weight CrMo to allow the suspension to work at its best, while incorporating an advanced crash structure absorbs energy, ready to protect occupants in the unlikely event of an impact .

VIDEO: New Pagani Huayra Makes Gaming Debut in Need for Speed Shift 2

While daydreaming never hurt anyone, let's face it; how many of you will ever have the chance to sit behind the wheel of Horacio Pagani's latest hypercar? If someone happened to raise their hand, please free to send us an email and we'll get back to you before you can say Huayra.
Fortunately, there's some good news for all us non-millionaire daydreamers as the 700+ horsepower Huayra is one of the cars listed on the upcoming racing game, Need for Speed: Shift 2 Unleashed. The game is scheduled for release on March 29 in the U.S., March 25 in the UK and April 1 for the rest of Europe. You can get a virtual taste of the new Pagani in the trailer after the jump.

Pagani Zonda F Driver Survives 199mph - 320 km/h Crash After Spinning Out of Control

There are very few (if any) people that can lose control of their car at 199mph or 320km/h and live another day to tell the tale. But that's exactly what happened to a 28-year-old German driver of a black Pagani Zonda F and his 21-year-old [sic...] Lithuanian passenger, after the young man lost control of the $1.5 million supercar earlier this week on Italy's A10 autostrada.
According to reports from Italy, the driver was going around 320 km/h (198.8 mph) when the car spun out of control hitting a guardrail on the right, losing a wheel, overturning and then colliding with a Mercedes, with which the driver was allegedly racing on the highway. Both the driver and the passenger of the supercar, as well as the driver of the Mercedes, came out unscathed.
Italian daily Corriere Della Sera also reported that the owner of the Pagani Zonda F had been fined last April on the same highway after he was clocked traveling in a Lamborghini at triple digit speed.

Huayray! New Pagani Supercar to be Officially Sold in the United States

We have some pretty good news for Pagani fans with a hefty bank account in the States; the Italian firm is finally entering the U.S. market for the very first time with its new Huayra supercar. The company's previous model, the Zonda, was barred from the U.S. due to emissions restrictions, but that's not the case with the new Huayra.
According to Pagani Automobili's managing director, Francesco Zappacosta, the 700-horsepower exotic supercar will cost around $1.1 million and it’ll be available later this year initially through two select dealers.
The prohibitive price tag coupled with the fact that the Italian maker expects to reach its maximum production capacity next year producing only a few dozen cars annually, guarantees that the Huayra won’t be a common sight,.
The Zonda replacement’s future looks bright, as other players in the niche are either winding down production – the case of Volkswagen’s $1.3 million Bugatti Veyron – or are years away from presenting a worthy opponent.
Those lucky enough to get their hands on a Huayra are going to receive a truly high-tech and custom tailored exotic machine. For example, the body of the gullwing is constructed from carbon fiber combined with titanium strings, which prevents body parts from shattering. Inside, the instrument panel was designed by a Swiss watchmaker and is accompanied by a host of elements made from aluminum. But, ultimately, the customer dictates what goes into the car, as Pagani is ready to meet any specifications. “We see ourselves like a custom suit maker,” Zappacosta said.
Named after a South American god of wind, the Huayra is motivated by a brand new AMG-sourced twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter V12 engine producing 700HP and 1,000 Nm (737 lb-ft) of mountain-moving torque. No 0-to-100 km/h (62 mph) time has been released, but the 1,361 kg (3,000 lbs) supercar is said to have a top speed of 370 km/h or 230 mph.

Ardalan Farboud’s Pagani Sei Concept: Better than the Huayra?

You may be surprised to learn that the Pagani Huayra isn’t my cup of tea (that’s Anglo-speak for “ I don’t like it”). Conversely, I have a great amount of affection for the Zonda and its limited-run sister, the Zonda F. The Huayra seems more Spyker-lookalike than Enzo-killer, which many would agree was the first generation Z’s raison d’être.
I also like Ardalan Farboud’s Pagani Sei design study. It has the sort of unfussy slickness that the Zonda had and the Huayra lacks, while staying true to the brand’s tenets of being lithe, fast and using gratuitous amounts of carbon fibre. Farboud, a recent graduate from Coventry University’s Master of Design course, produced the Sei as part of his final year project.
Let’s take a moment to ignore the irrationality of studying the vital statistics of a car that does not nor will ever exist and dive right into it.
The Sei features two stainless steel subframes fore and aft of a carbon fibre tub, the former housing the axles and engine whilst the latter holds the interior and fuel storage. An aluminium alloy, AMG-sourced twin turbo 4.8 L V8 is good for a theoretical 1,200 hp (895 kW) coupled to a 6-speed semi-automatic gearbox. With up-shifts accomplished in an favorable fast 80 miliseconds, the Sei can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in a quick 2.9 seconds.
The car’s 1100 kg (2646 lb) kerb weight is supported by an F1-inspired carbon fibre, stainless steel and aluminium double wishbone suspension setup. The rear suspension is adjustable. 19 x 9.5 inch front and 20 x 12.5 inch rear carbon fibre wheels are wrapped in 265/35ZR19 front and 335/30ZR20 rear rubber.
Add to that a ceramic powder coated stainless steel exhaust, carbon ceramic disk brakes and E85 compatibility and you have one impressive (if completely imaginary) hypercar. There’s even a video that you can check out along with our comprehensive image gallery. Feel free to voice your opinion in the comments section below.
