    Do people really turn down a special edition Pagani on the basis that is has a manual? That is just insane.
    AFAIK all the three one-offs based on the Zonda F, the first being the Zonda PS, will have the wrong gearbox, which is also slow and still has the gear lever (something I never understood unless the car has an actual sequential).
    Existing Zonda Fs could be updated to the new gearbox. Right now two cars are suspected of that, but it doesn't seem the case. They generally opt for the Cinque's ceramic and almost straight pipes and aero bits.

    At least the C9 gearbox should be quicker.
