    Pagani Zonda PS

    This particular example is a Zonda F based car, with a Zonda F engine, a Cinque exhaust system (even if modified in the terminal part) and a C9 (aka upcoming new car) sequential gearbox.
    I don't have data backing this statement, but as the production of the F Coupes is over since quite a lot of time, and the English owner already had an orange Coupe with the same plate, I suspect this car is actually an official conversion and not a new car.

    I prefer the "official" exhaust arrangement and senquantial gearbox is a bit of a no no, but other than it's a Zonda, so I like it.

    as sequential, I meant, as it should be afaik, a proper sequential gearbox, as that of the Cinque, even if the very press release of the Cinque is a bit confusing saying:

    If it was just the usual electro actuated gearbox, there wouldn't have been a reason to write "sequential" followed by "robotized", so I think it's the real deal, as in the Gumpert Apollo.

    the exhaust layout is quite...ugly, agree.

    here is a video:

    Don't care, I want my H-gated manual with three pedals. The Zonda will probably be one of the last supercars to have it.

    Porsche still embraces stick and 3 pedals layout....

    I thought Zonda is done after the semi-racing version? When is Pagani doing something else?

    The R is a basically a new car, despite resembling a Zonda F, using stuff from the MB CLR (engine+gearbox) and bit and bites of the upcoming new C9, including the chassis.
    The Zonda Cinque is a Zonda F with a sequential gearbox, tuned engine, new aero bits.
    This is a custom F, with Cinque bits.
    The C9 should debut next year, as they just started testing cars with an actual bodywork albeit camouflaged and not the fake bodywork of this and last year's mules.

    i dont like the way they positioned the exaust. Maybe it would have been better if they arranged it the normal way.
    Nothing to say...

    lol, there's a normal way to stick quad exhausts straight out the back of a car?

    They could have done a reversed, sideways L. Like this: (:..). I think that would have looked so much better.

    That would be much too pedestrian.
    Twelve exhausts in a line would be much more striking.
