Zonda loosing hair?


Hi,
Welcome again lets continue my summary of 2006 Paris motor show.

Pagani Zonda Roadster F 2006

Pagani is really a high end car producer in super car industry. It is so exclusive that most of people haven’t even heard about it, Ferrari or Lamborghini are legends but Pagani is definitely keeping up with them.

Zonda Roadster F is continuation of standard Zonda, the main difference is convertible top and great looking more aggressive “face”. I have personal theory that you can love this car or hate it, there is nothing between.

Paganis cars are great cause they are really crossing the limits. For example Zonda Roadster F weights 1230kg which is exactly the same as coupe! This is outstanding result cause normally when you are making convertible, by cutting the roof you are reducing stiffness of whole body, so car is acting like “drunk”.

So to make it ride like before you have to add some pipes or other stuff[I am not car engineer] so overall weight of the car is growing and this affects performance that’s why this achievement is worth admiring. Ok lets end this fluff talking and check out some technical details:

Engine: 7,3l, V12
Horse power: 594hp
Weight: 1230kg[2800 pounds]
Acceleration: 0-60mph = 3,6s
Max speed: 345km/h
Price: Unique for every customer, about 700 000$
