Pagani Zonda managed an incredible thing. He showed the world supercar not only spins around the Ferrari and Lamborghini models. And to strengthen this assumption, Pagani has created one of the latest versions (perhaps even last) Zonda model, to be replaced most likely next year.
This, after working for more than 24 months, Zonda R has been disclosed in Vienna.

The new supercar was designed as an easier and just for the runway well-known model Zonda. Production will be limited to 10 pieces, and the starting price is 1.4 million. Among the important characteristics of the Pagani Zonda R chassis include a carbon fiber, aluminum suspension, AMG V12 engine of 6.0 liters (750 HP at 8000 rpm and 710 Nm) and a sequential transmission with six gears. Weighing approximately 1100 kg, the Zonda R can accelerate from 0 to 100 km / h in just 3.2 seconds and reaches a maximum speed of about 400 km / h! There is something to say? Not really.

McLaren has now P11 and P12. First one will be released in 2010 and then settle in the so-called small niche of supercars, something like Ferrari F430. McLaren will be easier and more compact. While British journalists promise that P11 will be equipped with 550 hp V8, in other words, if prices is equal to the Italian car, McLaren will make a real market bomb.
McLaren is ready to offer F1 successor
P12 is given a role of a successor of legendary F1. In the Internet leaked official technical documentation, McLaren will be equipped with a V10 with 600 hp. F1 had under the hood exactly the same hp, but in 12 cylinders, so with new technology we can expect it to be even more faster.
