Pagani Zonda R Preview at Geneva

Wow. Sketches of Pagani’s newest car have surfaced. It’s called the Zonda R, and will be debuted at the Geneva Auto Show. The car will likely cost over $1.5 million, and there’s no word on how many will be made. It was made at the request of a current lucky bastard owner of 3 Zondas.

The new Zonda will be powered by a 750 horsepower V12 derived from the Mercedes CLK GTR, and have 523 ft-lbs of torque. For reference, the ridiculously fast Zonda F makes 594 horsepower. The release of this new car is surely a competitive response to Ferrari’s FXX and the Maserati MC-12, as this will be a track-only car. As you can see, the Zonda R is lighter, longer, lower, and likely wider than the current Zonda F, and only shares 10% of it’s parts. It also has some very nice aerodynamic improvements that plants the car firmly to the ground.
