New renderings of the Pagani Zonda R

Posted on Friday 7 September 2007

The Pagani Zonda is already one of the most dramatically styled and exclusive supercars in recent production but founder Horacio Pagani has more ambitious plans for the car as previewed by these latest renderings. Labeled the Zonda R, Pagani is working on a new 750hp track special that it plans to build in a limited run of just ten cars.

According to previous reports, six of the cars have already been accounted for and the first one should make its world debut at next year’s Geneva Motor show in March.

Though the rendering shares a striking resemblance with the current C12, the two cars are only expected to share ten percent of their parts. The rest of the Zonda R is all new, from its longer wheelbase to its wider track. The car also gets a much more aggressive bodykit and a more powerful engine derived from the unit used in the CLK GTR racer.

Images after the jump.

    Wow!

    And I thought the original one looked outrageous!

    Maybe it’s just me, but there’s too many angles and whatsits here. A little too busy for my personal taste, but as I can’t afford one I’ll shut up now… :)

    It’s a good thing they’re limiting the production to 10 cars. That means there are only 10 chances of ever coming face to face with this overpriced monstrosity.

    The last bit about using the engine from a CLK GTR got me thinking, this zonda looks a lot like the original clk gtr. the gigantic rear spoiler, the roof air scoop, the general shape, all derived from a 10 year old race car.

    But who cares tho the CLK GTR was one of the most awesome Le Mans cars in recent times.
