Canary Wharf Motor Expo. I'm working on my X6 review. All I can say for now is that I was outcome of the test drive what very unexpected, in a positive way.

I only got to drive the X6, will be called to test drive more of the car. I had a Press Pass which granted me access to more or less all cars, and yatches as well. The Zonda F was an absolute NO, don't even ask. Heck I would even have been sacred if I was offered a Zonda test drive. Just spotting it while stepping behind the wheel of the X6 made my knees weak.

Two words:

Mechanical pornography.



I'm an engineering, car and tech enthusiast. Having seen various marvels in my life the Zonda F I saw is at the top of the ladder. The car on a league of it's own, everyone as the show was completely absorbed by it's astounding carisma and seductive colors.

You don't walk up to it, but rather get pulled in by it's excellence. It made the Vantage and yatch next to it look like mass produced luxury goods. As prestigious as the Veyron might be it's unfortunately not as exquisite as the Zonda which was a glorious object even when you opened the engine cover revealing the drool worthy wishbone suspension, engine top cover and all the other structural reinforcements.
