Few supercars go to the extremes of performance and design that the Pagani Zonda does, and that extreme nature has earned it as many opponents as it has fans. But both sides can agree it’s an impressive and highly capable machine - however they feel about its looks. The Zonda Cinque takes the car’s extreme ethos to a new level, as it is essentially a Zonda R made for the street.

The Pagani Zonda R was designed as a 750hp track-only race car, limited to 10 units ever to be built, priced at €1.2 million and made almost exclusively of carbon fiber. It has yet to reach production, however. The Zonda Cinque, believed to wear the same body the Zonda R will eventually be fitted with, is even more exclusive and every bit as capable a performer. Those with a talent for foreign tongues have already noticed that the Cinque’s name is the Italian word for ‘five’ - because only five of the street-legal racers will be built.
Powered by a massaged version of the 7.3L V12 engine found in other Zondas that produces 750hp and 710Nm of torque, the Cinque makes the run from 0-124mph (0-200km/h) in just 9.8 seconds. It’s a relative bargain at just €800,000 and with the limited-edition nature, the car will likely only appreciate in value. The first picture of the car shows a machine that looks a lot like the Zonda F that set a record time at the Nurburgring in October last year, a feat it achieved with a mere 650hp.

Cool. The ultimate road going Zonda, this was completely unexpected. The torque rating looks like it is wrong though.

The Pagani dealer here in SA was says that only 5 will be produced. Imagine how difficult it is going to be to get your hands on one of these puppies.

Goodamn this is NEWS to me ..
im shocked..

PS
Im not really surprised..as i knew that some customers where trying to make their R´s road legal..
but this is just nutts..
To hell with the million Euro veyron..this is the SHIT

Damn what a car

MB did a nice job with that V12 despite it's age

Torque rating of 710 Nm from a 7.3 litre engine seems right to me bum-man...

^i think he made that comment with the fact in hand that the current Zonda F with 650Hp has 760 Nm...
So yeah..it sounds wierd..why would this one have less?

OMG!

^ Hmph! I didn't know that Artist: 760 Nm from a big 7.3 litre engine is surprising. That's 104 Nm per litre which is most impressive for such a big engine. I'm almost inclined to go with 710 Nm - that sounds more real.

MB has a thing for torque
