A
special one-off built for Ana Al-Thani, a member of the Royal family of
Qatar, famous for his turquoise car collection. Originally the car was a
Zonda
F Roadster that was crashed in Qatar and was sent back to the factory
to be rebuilt. The car is specced like a Cinque with the new
carbo-titanium chassis. It also has the LEDs on the front of the car
like the Tricolore. Unique to this car are the darkened rear lights and
the rear exhaust (the four pipes are shorter than standard). Also the
black wheels with turquoise wheel-striping, and the dual-tone diffuser
are real eye-catchers, together with lots of other black accents like
the collector of the exhaust tail pipes.

Luxury Car - Pagani Zonda Monza
The Zonda Monza
shown at the 2004 Paris Motor Show is a track-day version of the Zonda
built to request for private use. Borrowing its appearance cues from the
Zonda GR, the Monza included a dry sump version of the Zonda S 7.3
engine tuned to 600 PS (441 kW; 592 hp) and had improved cooling.
Modified aerodynamics, including a different wing and front diffuser,
allowed greater speed, as did optimized gearing. The car was lighter,
with polycarbonate side windows, and an unmuffled exhaust is fitted. The
revised interior includes different pedals, steering wheel, and seats,
as well as a reinforced roll cage. Larger brakes and a stiffer
suspension also improve performance. Finally, an external fire
extinguisher is included for safety.
Luxury Car - Pagani Zonda Tricolores
The final mass-produced Zonda was originally conceived as a one-off; there were actually three Tricolores
built. It was built as a tribute to the country's aerobatic team. It
carries a lot of the body from the Zonda Cinque. The car is unpainted
except for a clear blue lacquer and red, white and green stripes that
run up from the nose along the top of the car's surface. Unique to this
car is a small wing placed behind the cockpit which reflects tricolore's
Aermacchi MB-39 PAN stunt planes tail wing. The three Tricolore's will
be priced at 1.2 Million pounds. It's also 6 mph (9.7 km/h) faster than a
standard Zonda at 220 mph (350 km/h).

Luxury Car - Pagani Zonda Cinque
The Zonda Cinque was meant to be the last iteration of the Zonda, being a road going version of the Zonda R. Only five were built at the cost of £1 million ($1,930,700), with deliveries set to June 2009 for all five cars.
The differences over other road-going Zondas are the new 6-speed sequential gearbox, resulting in shifts now taking less than 100 milliseconds, dropping 0–62 mph down to 3.4 seconds. The Cinque also has a revised form of carbon fibre called "carbo-titanium" which incorporates titanium to increase strength and rigidity. Suspension makes use of magnesium and titanium components, and the engine's power has been increased to 678 PS (499 kW; 669 hp). Revised bodywork, which includes a longer front splitter, new sideskirts, rear diffuser, bumper canards and a flatter underside as well as a roof-mounted air intake scoop, enables the Cinque to create 750 kg (1,653 lb) of downforce at 300 km/h (186 mph) and 1.45 G of cornering force.

Luxury Car - Pagani Zonda F
The Zonda F
debuted at the 2005 Geneva Motor Show. It is the most extensive
re-engineering of the Zonda yet, though it shares much with its
predecessors including the 7.3 L AMG V12 engine which through enhanced
intake manifolds, exhaust and a revised ECU now produces 602 PS (443 kW;
594 hp) at 6150 rpm and 560 lb·ft (759 N·m) at 4000 rpm.
With Marc Basseng at the wheel the Zonda F CS lapped the 12.9 miles (20.8 km) Nürburgring Nordschleife in 7:24.7.

Production of the Zonda F will be limited to 25 cars, not US compatible. The next model (named the Huayra), will be fully EPA/DOT compatible.
The Zonda F, named after Formula One driver Juan Manuel Fangio, comes with an extra head light and different fog lights at the sides, new bodywork (revised front end, new rear spoiler, more aerodynamic vents all around) that improves the cars aerodynamics and different side mirrors. Further enhancements over the 'S' centre around optional carbon/ceramic brakes developed in conjunction with Brembo, magnesium wheels, inconel titanium exhaust system, hydroformed aluminum intake plenum and a redesigned 'Z preg' weave in the crash structure to improve rigidity and reduce weight.

Luxury Car - Pagani Zonda Roadster
In 2003 Pagani presented the Zonda Roadster,
a roadster version of the Zonda S 7.3 with production limited to 40
examples, carrying the same components as the coupe, Pagani promised no
loss of performance, a claim supported by the minimal weight gain of
just 30 kg.
As of 2005, nine roadsters had been built. According to Road & Track magazine, three more C12 S 7.3 cars had been built as of June 2005, but it is unclear whether they were roadsters or coupes. Motor Trend reported in their January 2006 issue that 60 Zondas of all types had been built.

Luxury Car - Pagani Zonda S 7.3
The Zonda S 7.3
of 2002 used a new, larger V12 engine displacing 7.3 L (445 cu in)
designed and manufactured by Mercedes-Benz AMG producing 555 PS (408 kW;
547 hp) and 750 N·m (550 lb·ft), to better handle the power, traction
control and ABS were made standard. Performance claims were unchanged
from the Zonda S.
In February 2003 the UK automotive magazine EVO attempted a top speed run on the Autobahn in which the car topped out at 198 mph (319 km/h), 10 mph (16 km/h) off the mark of its claimed top speed of 208 mph (335 km/h). Company representatives at Pagani's factory claimed this was the result of the car being in the setting for maximum down force, something that would drop its top speed to around 200 mph (320 km/h). However, the EVO article claimed that aerodynamic parts, specifically ones which created drag were in fact removed during the run, bringing Pagani's claims into question.

Luxury Car - Pagani Zonda S
The Zonda S
uses a 7.0 L (427 cu in) AMG–tuned version of the engine producing 550
PS (400 kW; 540 hp). It can accelerate to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 3.7 secs,
to 100 mph (160 km/h) in 7.5 secs and complete the quarter mile in 11.3
secs. Lateral acceleration on the skidpad is 1.18 g (11.6 m/s²), it can
reach a top speed of 208 mph (335 km/h), and carries a price tag of
US$500,000.
The Zonda S features an elongated nose, flaps at the rear for improved aerodynamics, and new light clusters and exhausts. Only fifteen 7.0 L Zonda S cars were produced.

Luxury Car - Pagani Zonda C12
The Zonda C12
debuted in 1999 at the Geneva Motor Show. Powered by a 6.0 L (366 cu
in) Mercedes-Benz V12 engine producing 394 PS (290 kW; 389 hp) at 5200
rpm and 570 N·m (420 lb·ft) at 3800 rpm mated to a 5-speed manual
transmission gearbox. The C12 could accelerate to 60 mph (97 km/h) in
4.2 seconds and to 100 mph (160 km/h) in 9.2 seconds.
Just five of the original 6.0 L Zondas were built, though it was still available in 2002 when the C12 S debuted. One was used for crash testing, while another was a demonstrator and show car. The remainder were delivered to customers during the next three years, priced at US$320,000.
