Pagani, the Italian super car that relies on Mercedes Benz' power
plant manufacturing has recently released another brand new roadster
Zonda R version. The introduction of the
Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster
to the market is well-received, and similar to its coupe sister, Pagani
only produced 5 units and was sold at a 1.3 million Euro price tag
($1.85 million). It is also patterned after the Modenese Atelier.
Performance
This super car, made of carbo-titanium material (carbon fiber weaved
with titanium threads), features a hand built super twin engine that are
turbocharged AMG v12 machines. This makes up to 678 horsepower of
traction. The rocket ship inspired car accelerates to 60 kilometers per
hour in only 3.4 seconds. Consequently, it also hits 200 kilometers per
hour in less than 10 seconds. Overall, its top speed reaches 217 miles
per hour. This coupe version features ceramic-coated exhaust system with
a titanium framework. Basically, this is the same aluminum/magnesium
that the rims are made of. The car also has maximum side acceleration of
1.45 G already with the road tires.
Its Brembo brakes are self ventilated carbo-ceramic material with
hydraulic servo brakes. The down force of the car is at 300 kilometers
per hour at 750 kg. Pagani used all weight reduction measures to
basically improve the performance, driving pleasure and emission
features that many racers have found very convincing in the model of
Cinque Roadsters.
Exterior
The car's chassis is built with carbon titanium finish and was
redesigned in order to compensate for its lack of roof. The enhanced
features of the Cinque are further emphasized with its roof stored in
its front bonnet. The car seats are also made of Pagani leather cum
carbon fiber material.
Weight distribution while driving is at 47% in front and 53% at the
rear. Horacio Pagani and his mechanics exhibit their mastery of art and
engineering in the new Zonda Cinque Roadster. If you choose to drive
around with the Cinque, you will discover its ultimate performance and
daily drivability very convenient due to its various drive modes resting
in the adjustable suspension setup and sequential robotized gearbox.
More
It is fascinating to drive a car that weighs 1,210 kilograms in open
air roads, knowing that only you and four others are the only ones who
are kept in awe with its reliable performance and durability. This
limited edition super car packs all the good stuff that one wishes of a
dream car. On recent road tests by car professionals, it has been dubbed
the best of the Zonda series due to its automated gearbox which cannot
be found in other non-Cinque units. It may look racecar low to many
drivers but it certainly copes well with an imperfect tarmac. Gear
changes have been remarkably better too. With just five manufactured by
Pagani, this model will be the swansong for the Zonda lineup. It is
certainly worth its price and will never disappoint one's expectations
of a super car.
