A mid-engined Italian [supercar] produced by Modena-based manufacturer [Pagani].
Often considered the elite among supercars, even compared to the king of supercar makers, Ferrari, the Zonda is an uncompromising performance machine. The Zonda was designed with the help of five time Formula One champion [Juan Manuel] Fangio who regrettedly passed away several years into the cars development in 1995.
The Zonda is quite famous for being a constant evolution on an already superb platform. There have been many [iterations] throughout its production line, including the [C12], the C12 S, and the Zonda F, to name a few. With AMG V-12s of varying displacement (depending on model) supplying the thrust, and a [carbon fiber] intensive design keeping weight low, the Zonda is no slouch. Like many supercars, it excels in the speed bracket well above highway velocities, below which, in true hyper-power fashion, it has trouble maintaining traction (but this is a decidedly milder case than that encountered in many other supercars).
Styled after the Group C [Le Mans] racecars of lore, the [Zondas] general shape is occasionally referred to as an acquired taste. The same can be said of its interior and its truly radical design.
Several other noteworthy Zonda features include its roof, which is almost entirely composed of glass (except in the roof-less roadster model), its antenna-like mirrors, and its six speed manual [transaxle] (which is particularly rare considering the 6 and 7 speed sequential manuals and [DSG] transmissions that many manufacturers use in their supercars today).
