    Pagani Zonda Cinque - 2009

    Couldn't find a thread for it, if it's a repost, merge or delete, it's up to you mods.
    if not, hide-out plz

    old press release:
    Zonda Cinque
    After last year’s record braking lap at the infamous Nürburgring Nordschleife, the
    official Pagani representatives from Hong Kong made their special request for the
    most radical road legal Zonda ever, the Zonda Cinque. Limited to just 5 (Cinque)
    pieces the production is already sold out.
    Technology
    In order to satisfy the downforce requirements of 750kg at 300kph, the Cinque
    features a new larger front splitter, a new adjustable rear wing as well as a
    modified underbody and rear diffuser. New intakes for brake ducts increase the
    airflow to brake disks and wheelhubs.
    The air scoop on the central monococque feeds the 678hp Mercedes-AMG V12
    powerplant. Up to 780Nm are unleashed on the bespoke Pirelli Pzero tyres. For
    the first time ever in a Zonda a sequential 6 speed gearbox is installed. The
    adaptive gearbox demands no compromises from the driver, offering lightning
    fast gearshifts and comfortable use in heavy traffic.
    Having become a public issue only recently, fuel economy and efficiency have
    been grappled with since the mid 1990s at Pagani, its engineers constantly
    developing new technologies and materials to reduce the weight of their cars.
    A new composite fibre, carbon-titanium, a development by Pagani, has been
    purposely created for the Zonda Cinque and will find its use in future generations
    of Pagani vehicles. Forged monoblock aluminium wheels, bolts and nuts are
    realised in titanium to significantly reduce the unsprung masses. The fully adjustable
    ergal shock absorbers with titanium springs have been developed at Öhlins
    according to the latest technologies and to the Pagani specifications.
    Interior
    While maintaining the level of refinement usual for Pagani cars, the interior reveals
    the sporty pretensions. Leather racing seats developed by Toora with 4-point
    seatbelts are surrounded by carbon fibre laminated Cr-Mo roll-bars.
    The ergonomic shift paddles behind the steering wheel as the rest of the controls
    have been studied to offer highest levels of precision for a deep immersion into
    the driving pleasure.
    Driven by passion and following the renowned automotive tradition of Modena
    and the Renaissance concepts of art and science by Leonardo Da Vinci, another
    automotive sculpture is born at the Pagani Ateilier, the 1 million (+ tax) Zonda
    Cinque with its unmistakable, bespoke livery is reserved for five lucky owners,
    guaranteeing unique emotions every time they will get near it.

    Could you please put the year at the end of the title?

    It makes browsing and checking out the index easier.

    (BTW I've seen you've done the same with some Abarth threads in the hideout)

    This isn't a particularly new concept. I think it was introduced back in the fall/summer.

    I believe that the press release of the car has been out since July 2008

    Right, but this is the first time I c an remember it being shown as anything other than concept pics. The car was (I think) debuted at Geneva, but was overshadowed by the Zonda R.

    it would have been a good idea, better browsing for sure, I'm just used to do that in my archive

    those were just the four renderings of the first post together with the old press release as sledge pointed out

    true.
    This is probably the last real Zonda, with the R being a completely different car if not for a similar frontal look. It also has the same hybrid technology for the chassis, combining titanium and carbon fiber, and even the additional air scoop, probably responsible for the bump in power, together with the new exhaust.
    Even Pagani's official site is quite short of new info about it, as it was for the R for a quite a long time even after the car's unveiling in Vienna.
