The closest most of us will get to driving the boutique-built Pagani Huayra hypercar will be in Gran Turismo 6. Or, possibly, right here in this video. MUST SEE: The World's Strongest Brakes Stop The 1,000 MPH Bloodhound SSC: Video With a camera strapped to Pagani’s chief test driver’s head, the Huayra surges and spools its way around the track at Modena, showing a pace and an experience that’s unlike few other road cars in history.

Last month Pagani’s Huayra supercar set a new record for a production car around the famous Top Gear test track, which was featured during the first episode of the popular British television program’s 19th season. The Huayra’s time was an impressive 1:13.8, which was 1.3 seconds faster than the time set by the stripped-out Ariel Atom V8 (1:15.1) and 2.4 seconds faster than that of the McLaren MP4-12C (1:16.2)--huge differences for a track only 1.75 miles in length. This caused some to doubt the Huayra’s legality for the show’s power lap segment, which states that...

Some find it the very definition of aesthetic perfection, others see a balance of function and form, and still others can't see anything but a four-wheeled insect.

A group of very connected and (naturally) wealthy supercar aficionados were treated to a private debut of the Pagani Huayra supercar, its first official trip on U.S. soil, this week at the Art Center College of Design. Horatio Pagani himself was on hand for the event, which showed the most recent of his handmade, hyper-fast supercars to the group. The Huayra, unlike the Zonda before it, will be legal for use on U.S. roads (or maybe not, if the NHTSA's refusal to waive airbag requirements throws a wrench into the company's plans), and Pagani is aiming to build sales to stratospheric heights...
