It seems that 2 words send the auto writers into a flurry of activity. Pagani Zonda. What the hell? The car is unavailable to us Yanks (at least without a zillion dollars to import via the gray market), it's quite repugnant to look at (compared to other "exotics"), uses Mercedes Power, and what else? It doesn't have a racing pedigree, it's produced only for the idle rich, it's used as a way of generating ratings (or views, or selling copies) to the auto related shows, blogs, and rags. Yet, all of the fanboys (including this blog) just melt at those vary two words; Pagani Zonda. Well, melt away.
So, between Zonda and Bugatti, we're hurtling toward the inevitable point where every single car they produce is a special edition. One of one.
"We call this one the Muffkins F Zoomie-Do Edition, and that one we're building over there is the All-Powerful and Eternally Righteous R Edition. The Sesame Street JKLMNOP Edition is still on the drawing board, but come back next week. It will have carbon fiber feathers."
Well played and a hearty click for you, my good Friction! I'd also like to submit a COTD nomination, now, where did I put my forms, I know they're around here somewhere...
