It`s really an amazing car, I don`t like any of Mercedes-Benz products, but this engine... just takes my breath away. No words to express how much I love this car.
I think i am speaking for all off us when i am saying that this is ultimate IN EVERY LITTLE DETAIL.....its just a dream....its beautiful...its everything you need to be happy.... :'-)
This guy is wonderful! It really looks like he loves to drive vehicles and has a real passion for them! I laughed when first ignited the car and he was like, "Ohh...Dirty!" Hahaha. Looks like a hell of a car to drive, cheers mate!
This defines the supercar rarity rule as less than 100 have been made in the decade since it first rolled onto the street. Their are some in America but very, very few I would say. This is one of the most beautiful cars I have ever seen.
@ForzaFerrari47 ah, but you see, owning this car is not (primarily) about speed, or popularity, or showing off. Its about the passion for the perfect drive, the perfect car. Not the fastest. Not the best looking (although it is in my opinion). Just the best all round
@rkd350z I agree.. I used to love the Enzo much more than the Zonda... but I keep coming back to this video, becuz it just shows how spectacular a car get can! It reminds all other cars of what 'exotic' should all be about!
This was meant to backfire, it signifies the engine is very powerful and was done out of the factory. The Zonda in this case has a backfire common to its unusual exhaust setup, it doesn't mean in any way the car is of lower quality as you make it sound. In fact, I'd prefer to keep the backfire on a Zonda if I owned one, it would add a tone of "highly-tuned" to the car... just like many Ferrari's I've seen with aftermarket exhaust systems...
This is what happens when you are concerned about something other than 'more, faster, better;' you get a real work of art instead of a flashy toy. Not that I would turn my nose up at the opportunity to ever plant myself in a Veyron, but it's good to see that there are makers concerned about more than just topping the last chart.
The Veyron is an engineering masterpiece. Even though its ugly as hell it is still beautiful. I believe it was built as a long distance tourer with a supercar in mind. It has a lot of supercar technology which puts it in that class. Its an investment and I don't know this for a fact but I'm sure nobody bought one as their only car. Most Bugatti's customers probably have just about everything.
Nordi Mejia by the time I will be able to afford one I doubt they will still be making them but, they don’t have a bunch of new tech that ages them. I hate new cars with high tech, they just get old in a couple years.
@loryfisherman, unburned fuel passes through the fairly free-flowing catalytic converters and burns off in the exhaust system somewhere. Little bit of petrol plus hot exhaust equals combustion...just not where it's supposed to be.
Mr. Pagani is from Argentina. He designed the best sportcar ever. Fangio is a argentinian famous racer which dissapear or was kidnapped and nobody knew sth about him again... I tell u this bc' I'm from Argentina
about 580 k us . I saw one today . the guy was kind enough to show me round it in the flesh it is just beautiful , so well put together. I had to drive home in my shitty ferrari 360 and sulk.
Something about the Zonda is very very catchy. To me, Zonda is more charming than Veyron, Enzo or anyother Supercars out there. I would sell my soul to drive one!
yea...except that, Hammond is on Top Gear and Plato is on 5th gear (above). And... Hammond is a tv presenter and journalist and Plato is a touring car and racing driver who does occasional tv testing... but yea.. what you said.
@petbedding01 couldn't of said it better; aggressive cam set-ups.. this is exactly true. My 323iS makes this sound after getting a cam swap with the 2.8L & larger injectors w/ re-mapped ECU. Also, many highly boosted FI engines create this sort of back-firing effect when shifting gears & letting up on the throttle..
once you start driving cars at that levels, unless you race professionally, 0.2 seconds does not matter. i've driven many fast cars, and you cannot tell the difference. in essence, it is how the car makes you feel when you drive it. when i drove the zonda i felt like a 5 year old boy, that was looking at a poster of jenna jameson.
i think in each decay there's a car that writes its own history... and i am not talking only about performance.. u can have as much performance as u want with tuning stuff in each car. BUT when it comes to performance AND looks... well i think for the 60's was the ferrari 250 GTO, for the 70's the lambo miura, 80's the ferrari f40, 90's f50 and zonda f roadster for 00s... each car different personality, same value for the car history.. plz send me ur opinion...
wow ! Shades of SR - 71 ! Signore. Pagani, has done for the Automobile. What Kelly Johnson did for Flight ! Talk of a Blend of Style and Function ! It is an Artistic Masterpiece. Love that, Jet Fighter Cockpit . But, We mere Mortals, can only dream. Can I assume that a " Mr. R. Lauren ", is on the ' waiting list ' ???
yes ok i agree.. its just that f50 has benn MY personal favorite car till zonfa f.. ofc we cannot exclude mclaren from this list.. but omg.. f50 is a godess :) thanx for opinion!
Just because he's a racing driver doesn't mean he should be panting and puffing while driving normally too. As a matter of fact I WILL be presenting very soon. But sadly, aren't very many Zonda Fs in this part of town.
The Zonda F is slightly faster 0-60 however it is much faster around a track..It also has more power and is lighter than the S. Look at the nurburgring times.
For some reason, a lot of people don't consider the Vipers Supercars. So, a lot of the time, when magazines and other big important people rate Supercars, they ignore the Viper. Seems way off to me, but people like to win arguments. Lol
Hi! Could anyone tell me, how high the idle is on the Zonda C12/S/F-V12s (not the Zonda R)?? I saw it some time ago and I think it was ridiculously low, much slower than 800rpm. This is killing me, I can't find it anywhere - Please post a link if you do!!
i believe its when either fuel or exhaust gasses gather up in the engine system and then explode under decompression...i think, not shure though...i do know thats what happens when you over-rev a motorcycle engine...might be the same thing...probably
Anybody in 2022 revisiting this gem?
'engineering masterpiece' - Plato summed it up perfectly.
I LOVE Zonda...
This car touches my soul....
"...and it cost nearly £400,000" 😂😂😂🤣🤣 Oh boy! We're a long from that now...

It's very Cool how he comes out to make sure she looks her best.
The design is so fine and precise a bit like a Rolex watch :)
Yeah, the Zonda sound rules big-time! Beautiful, so beautiful sounding! : )
This guy is wonderful! It really looks like he loves to drive vehicles and has a real passion for them! I laughed when first ignited the car and he was like, "Ohh...Dirty!" Hahaha. Looks like a hell of a car to drive, cheers mate!
one of the most iconic test in history.

The Zonda is one of those cars that nobody seems to dislike. Certainly there's a lot to like.

Around the 1 minute mark. I just love how everyone in the Pagani factory goes to work in bicycles.
Great car.
It's also on the Zonda. See the Red Button on top of the gear shift knob when he is in the car. That's a starter button.
This was meant to backfire, it signifies the engine is very powerful and was done out of the factory. The Zonda in this case has a backfire common to its unusual exhaust setup, it doesn't mean in any way the car is of lower quality as you make it sound.

mr pagani has incredible talent. amazing he started by sweeping floors at lamborghini...
it cames with dresing shoes that matchs with the interior design

God She’s BEAUTIFUL... still my dream car
Pagani still.makes "the last zonda" every two months... So... There is hope for you.
Nordi Mejia by the time I will be able to afford one I doubt they will still be making them but, they don’t have a bunch of new tech that ages them. I hate new cars with high tech, they just get old in a couple years.
This car is just exquisite
This vid made me happy :)
what i would give to drive that beauty..well it looks a little weird in the front butjus the thought of driving such a rare car is awesome

The most beautiful supercar i ever seen.The noise sounds like god making music.:-)
about 580 k us . I saw one today . the guy was kind enough to show me round it
in the flesh it is just beautiful , so well put together. I had to drive home in my shitty ferrari 360 and sulk.
1:50 if that was me, they never would have seen that single car again.
Sweet ride.
Something about the Zonda is very very catchy. To me, Zonda is more charming than Veyron, Enzo or anyother Supercars out there.
I would sell my soul to drive one!
Now tell me, how can this be only a machine? I mean i haven't driven it and i think i am in love!
@3:36 you can hear his voice break as he's so overwhelmed.
If I had the money, there would be no other car I'd rather have. Money may not buy love, but it can buy that car and that's close enough.
yea...except that, Hammond is on Top Gear and Plato is on 5th gear (above). And... Hammond is a tv presenter and journalist and Plato is a touring car and racing driver who does occasional tv testing... but yea.. what you said.

I am so excited, I might be buying one of those.
This is some good info. Thanks for that!
well said, you are totally right, Pagani Zonda will be remembered forever as best one of supercars ever made. this car is my favorite of all times :D
Zondas are amazing man. But the Cinque is... spectacular with its titinium carbide body, man it takes the prize.
I like it when Jason says "Oh.hello!"
nope.. it's a AMG engine because Juan Manuel Fangio, who helped Horacio Pagani to develop this car, was a race driver on mercedes ;-)
Pagani zonda looks very good
Best car in the world.. hands down.. any disputes?
i wish i had a zonda!!!
once you start driving cars at that levels, unless you race professionally, 0.2 seconds does not matter. i've driven many fast cars, and you cannot tell the difference. in essence, it is how the car makes you feel when you drive it. when i drove the zonda i felt like a 5 year old boy, that was looking at a poster of jenna jameson.
italiana e scoppietta di serie amo questa macchina
im in love with this car, i can only hope that one day i'll ride in one its a beauty
Awesome car!
But, what does he hit at 4:06? If you look at the left rear, you can see something flying off / away from the car.
i think in each decay there's a car that writes its own history... and i am not talking only about performance.. u can have as much performance as u want with tuning stuff in each car. BUT when it comes to performance AND looks... well i think for the 60's was the ferrari 250 GTO, for the 70's the lambo miura, 80's the ferrari f40, 90's f50 and zonda f roadster for 00s... each car different personality, same value for the car history.. plz send me ur opinion...
It MIGHT be a Zonda watch. Horacio Pagani has started to make Watches and Stereo equipment as well.
@Knezpedja My choices would be:
V8 - Mercedes SLS AMG.
V10- Carrera GT/ Lexus LFA/ Audi R8 GT.
V12- Zonda Cinque or F.
i was trying to figure that out too...its beautiful
2:48 it sounds like something broke off of it, it made a popping sound, and you can see something in the corner
It's exhaust backfire you moron
At 4:07 he drills a large stick in the road, makes a loud snap, thats $2,483 for a new alignment right there.
Great car, shame about the video's aspect ratio (this is supposed to be shown on a widescreen) which makes the car look a bit weird :)
How do you know.. have you driven one? all reviews ive read say it still handles and brakes beautifully
wow ! Shades of SR - 71 ! Signore. Pagani, has done for the Automobile. What Kelly Johnson did for Flight ! Talk of a Blend of Style and Function ! It is an Artistic Masterpiece. Love that, Jet Fighter Cockpit . But, We mere Mortals, can only dream. Can I assume that a " Mr. R. Lauren ", is on the ' waiting list ' ???
awsome interior
@Knezpedja Alfa Romeo 8c sounds brilliant as well
i think i fall in love with this car ^_^
the enzo is a speed devil and is designed as a formula one car that's street legal. And if you think that the zonda looks better than you're crazy!
yes ok i agree.. its just that f50 has benn MY personal favorite car till zonfa f.. ofc we cannot exclude mclaren from this list.. but omg.. f50 is a godess :) thanx for opinion!
Just because he's a racing driver doesn't mean he should be panting and puffing while driving normally too.
As a matter of fact I WILL be presenting very soon. But sadly, aren't very many Zonda Fs in this part of town.
Damn baby,Just damn XD
"Ooh, dirrty" :-)
Yes Because if your an owner of a supercar maker your supposed to put your heart and soul into the car which means you should make your own engine
it would be a dream for someone to come to door one day and say they are giving me this car!!! but, only in a dream.
The Zonda F is slightly faster 0-60 however it is much faster around a track..It also has more power and is lighter than the S.
Look at the nurburgring times.
what a car, almost sounds like an f1 during some parts of the video
finally a supercar you can actually see out of
What kind of watch is Horatio Pagani's watch? So stylish...
Are you ment to shake the gear lever once you've turned on the ignition then start the engine?
i love the old Zonda C12 not the S but they all look similar
this is not pagani zonda,this is MY DREAM !! :)
@rvind92g V8 - Koenigsegg CCX
V10 - Lexus LFA
V12 - Ferrari f50
@sup3rcars anyway Im glad that is someone beter that ferrari after all these years. I hope that c9 wont be a failure that would destroy pagani
I envy this guy so much
finnaaaallllly someone is understanding my point. Respect to you =)
i've i would have a lot of money, THATS THE CAR I WOULD BUY!!! Best car ever!
But in the video it seems that he let go of the throttle. And would overrun damage the engine?
Does anyone know if this car has the ability to raise the front end when your approaching a speed bump like the Murcielago?
best sounding car ever
Amazing.
are you talking about that one that has body work resembling a f22 or whatever?
all opinion, i think both of the cars are beautiful in there own way
i wouldnt ever label either of the cars as ugly in any way
Of course!
You put your car in N (neutral) if it a Manual P(park) !
I answered my own question!
ohh that music is fantastic who is playing it
i love this car...
i love this car
For some reason, a lot of people don't consider the Vipers Supercars. So, a lot of the time, when magazines and other big important people rate Supercars, they ignore the Viper.
Seems way off to me, but people like to win arguments. Lol
@1212surface I totally agree with you. The C12 (without S) is my favorite as well.
Hi!
Could anyone tell me, how high the idle is on the Zonda C12/S/F-V12s (not the Zonda R)?? I saw it some time ago and I think it was ridiculously low, much slower than 800rpm.
This is killing me, I can't find it anywhere - Please post a link if you do!!
i believe its when either fuel or exhaust gasses gather up in the engine system and then explode under decompression...i think, not shure though...i do know thats what happens when you over-rev a motorcycle engine...might be the same thing...probably
does anyone know what watch horracio pagani is wearing when hes cleaning the car?
Ah, the perks of the business!
Realy nice car !!
