Talking

The Zonda is [arguably]... the most exotic supercar in the world.. just take a look at this and you'll know why...

Anyone agree with me? Not many people now about this car. I'm trying to change that

Noone knows about this car?

I thought anyone who really cares about cars much knew about it. Huh. Maybe I was wrong.

I, personally, know about it, but don't care for it much. Yeah, it's much much better than the paseo I drive now, but I wouldn't ever buy one. Maybe if they changed the body to look like something other than the Aztek equivalent of a sportscar I'd reconsider.

i must say you are the first person that I have EVER heard that didn't even care for the Zonda... Aztek equivalent!!! phew...wow... I will never know how they are similiar....

BTW. Noone does know about his car... only people who read Road and Track and a few who read the article in the back of Car and Driver...

I just don't personally find the styling to be...well...attractive. Too many loose jagged edges, headlights seem out of place, the "jet" thing is hideous, IMO.

Probably not considered an exot. But in my book, it is up there with great distinction. I just love the all around look. Of course I'll take the hard top.

The Zonda is a very awesome car. I love it. It is the shit. I got to see a C12S in really life. It rocks. The interior is kinda of funky but it rocks. Sounds really nice too. Words can't discribe it. But I still think the McLaren F1 is still the most exotic car. And I won't change my mind until I see the F60 and all of the other new guys.

It's a nice car . . . MOST exotic . . . I dunno about that.

The exhaust is horrendous . . . gotta agree with Enzo on that one . . .

I think the Mclaren is one of THE most exotic . . . ditto the Vector offerings . . . any of them . . .

I call it more exotic than the McLaren F1 because it is more unique, and much more weird. Exotic = all sorts of unique and interesting looks, and to me, the McLaren F1 looks like many other supercars.... but then again, all supercars do look like a teardrop

I do love the Zonda as well. I thought it was the bomb, and perhaps my favorite exotic as well, until I discovered the Koenigsegg CC. I think this is #1 on my list now, above the Zonda and the all-mighty McLaren F1. And hey, with the attractive base price of $268,674 (U.S. dollars), I might be driving one soon... (yeah right - I just like kidding myself).

yeah, unfortuneately, the CC beats the Zonda performance-wise in every aspect -- including price!!!

But I do love the Zonda very very much...

as you can see by PaganiZonda.com....





And this makes you actually begin to appreciate the rear. At first it's Aztek - like and shocking, but then you realise it isn't at all, and it is actually beautifullllll.. check it...:
