V8-Powered Pagani Zonda In Action?

We dig the Pagani Zonda. It doesn't just have beautifully crafted details and fantastic style, it's got all the speed and power to back it up. But that big Mercedes 7.3-liter V12 has been around for a while now. So what's the plan for future models? Word is that Pagani is planning on switching to good ol' V8 grunt. Some people are guessing it'll be the dry-sump lump from the McLaren SLR, but we'll let you listen to this clip and decide for yourself.

New Pagani Zonda Test Mule?

The Pagani Zonda has been shooting fire out of the encircled quadruple exhaust tips now for going on eight years. It's getting mighty long in the tooth with all the modern supercars robber barons today have at the ready. Spies have snapped what appears to be a way to change that — a suspicious-looking Zonda with a funny looking engine cover and ducting in places we've never before seen. There's no word on whether or not the new car will be wearing the Zonda badge, but it will likely see a decrease in cylinder count from twelve to eight, but that doesn't mean power won't stay put.
