Pagani Factory visits

[nsx1164]

I am planning a trip to Modena, and the Pagani factory is one of my stops. Has anyone here visited their factory and showroom??

Any suggestions and/or recommendations for visits?

I'll also be visiting with Ferrari and Lamborghini, although some of the facilties are closely regulated (e.g., Fiorano test track).

Thanks in advance

I visited the Pagani facilties late last week (Friday afternoon). They are located just off SS9 (Via Emilia) in S. Cesario Sul, between Bologna and Modena.

Very cool facilities, particularly the carbon fiber fabrication areas. Biggest autoclave I've ever seen.

Also saw several Zonda cars, including:
- blue C12S 7.3 (launch car for 7.3 series)
- carbon-fiber C12S (owned by a local-area customer)
- several silver C12S under construction

Pagani is working on getting US certification (currently its in the "show and exhibit" category), and hopes to get to the US market shortly.

Some pix to follow later.

Hey, could I use your pictures @ the new paganizonda.com? which seems to be farther and farther off... I don't think I really will fully redesign it like I said... maybe just a new top banner.

I asked... the raw carbon-fiber one in a lot of pix is owned by a local-area customer. The car hangs around the Pagani facility a lot, I'm told.

So NO, its not Horacio's personal car.

Could I get those shots as well (especially the 1600x1200 ones)?
