Pagani Zonda Roadster F

Pagani Automobili is proud to unveil the Roadster F, a new jewel in the Zonda
family: fast open top motoring at its best.
Hand built at the Pagani Atelier in a limited run of 25, the Roadster F offers the
outstanding driveability and performance of the F Coupè, enhanced by the
pleasure of driving with a gentle breeze in your hair.
Thanks to an original roof made out of carbon fibre and cloth (removable in a
few seconds) and due to the use of carbon fabrics for the construction of the
central chassis, bodywork and interior, it was possible to maintain the dry weight
of 1230kg, which translates in a weight/power ratio of 1,89kg/hp for the Clubsport
version.
Now think about this; a light and rigid vehicle body, pushed by the mighty 7.3
Litre Mercedes-AMG V12, with a power of 650hp and a torque of 780Nm…..!!!!
The 0 – 200kph time takes just 9.8 seconds and a few instants later you exceed
the 300kph mark... all topless.
The Roadster F travels along the boundary where beauty and power merge
together forming something special; it’s sinuous and aerodynamically shaped
bodywork gets its prominence from sharp edges and elegant lines, which show
at first glance its extraordinary potential.
From the cockpit you enjoy a magnificent view, unusual for a supercar.
With your hands on the steering wheel you enjoy an environment that far exceeds
most expectations, with a mixture of carbon fibre, soft leather and polished
Aluminium lighting up your senses.
The precious instrument cluster looks like the handiwork of a watchmaker. It
reveals the pure-breed of an Italian GT car: thanks to its personality, mixing
sensuality, aggressiveness and magnetic beauty, you can easily imagine it driving
along the sea front in Monte Carlo or screaming down a straight at Le Mans.
All this, supported by handling that is unbelievably efficient and sincere and that
monitors constantly what is happening to every single wheel; creating the feeling
of the power behind you and the precise response in front.
The Roadster F is not a racecar; it is rather a jewel handcrafted in Italy, a whirl
of emotions, a masterpiece for the connoisseur who cares to drive fast. Very fast.
Like the heart beating within its soul.
The fastest, most exclusive, most powerful and most expensive Roadster
in the world. The Pagani Roadster F.

Amazing! Well over-the-top!

Only the exposed speakers in the Roll Bars look a little out of place.

I dont like the exposed carbon-fibre. It looks too... Nevermind. You guys would kill me.

Can what a factory produces be considered "rice"?

I see it as a little unfinished... Paint it!! A half million dollar car needed show-off C/F this overtly.

Tacky?


I like the exposed carbon in ways, however in others i don't. For a car of it's stature, i really do think that it should be painted. Saying that if i could afford two, i'd have one in white and one with the carbon, or a very light black coat.

Looks soooooooooooooooooo goooooooooooood...

I have to agree with Hugo here...it does look odd. Nothing a lick of paint and removal of that red stripe wouldn't fix.

What can I say? I'm a purist and a low-profile driver.
I would paint it.

At least I'm not alone. I guess you're right.
But who am I to say a Pagani looks bad when I drive a 14 year old Miata?

Overall, I like the Pagani, although it's a bit too extroverted for my taste.
