Wow, I have never heard of this car. It's name sounds like an Italian restaurant. I am going to research this car, but the only way to prove a car is faster is to race it. The Viper has proven to be faster than the 911 in Le Mans, is the Zonda faster than a 911?

Go to racingflix.com and search through the videos. You can watch the Pagani dispatch a new Murcielago very easily and we know that a Lambo is indeed faster than both viper and 911.

The Zonda is much faster than a viper or a 911. Not even the same class.

You have to remember the Pagani is much lighter and produce more power than both 911 and Viper. Top speed is over 200mph.

Also if you want you can check out the Dec. issue of Top Gear mag. (or it maybe Car, not sure I have them both) to see the Zonda vs. everything else. It is decisively faster than all. I can post quotes if you would like.

There's no comparison b/w the Viper and the Zonda. The Zonda beats the Murielago by 3-5 car lenghts in the straight and several seconds around the track. I use to be a huge Viper lover and now I'm starting to see it as an American pile of junk. Yea its fast to a degree, but almost every comparison the Viper has been put through by magazines, something has broken on it and they had to get another Viper to replace the one they started with. And now the new Viper design..... I'd take a Corvette Z06 over a Viper any day, IMO, it has better looks and better performance for the dollar. Plus, bump up the hp in the Z06 and you've got yourself a Viper eater. Zonda's still better than both of them though.

Raven, I think we're on the same level of thinking. I know you tried to tell them, but I think it just takes more than one person to convince people sometimes.

It would be absolutely fascinating to see all these cars compared and compete :X I love the McLaren and Veyron for some reason doesn't attract me (regardless of the cool fact that its a v16 with 4 turbos lol), but the zonda hmm its just fascinating. The Murcielago doesn't have the same spirited feeling anymore. It feels like lambourghinis just keep coming out. Nothing new, nothing radical, nothing fascinating. The zonda is so new and yet so fascinating and better then say the murcielago in many ways and/or to compete with but the point is its totally a new idea if thats the proper way to say it. Hmm.. the zonda is fascinating :X *stops rumbling about his fascination with the zonda*

Where did you get that list? As incredible as the M-B W125s were, I'm still amazed to see them capable of those speeds.
