@LuciferV8:
I believe Wyclef sold his.

While I could barely afford the shoes, I appreciate what they're doing, and couldn't pass up the chance to visit while I'm in Italy.

]]> <![CDATA[V8-Powered Pagani Zonda In Action?]]> Weird. I feel like exotic car makers, instead of looking for more grunt nowadays, are looking for ways to maintain 600+ hp and the all toys while losing a little weight. A supercharged V8 is one way to go, but it certainly won't help mileage much.

And what the hell was that hovering past the lens, the Mothman?

Doesn't Wyclef Jean have one?

@tenbeers: if they do go LS9, they should drop the price a little.

My bet is they'll grab the Gallardo's V10.

But there's another car maker in Bologna that manufactures an automobile even more exclusive and customized - the Pagani. It takes six to nine months to make just one car, so Pagani produces less than 20 per year. The owner works one-on-one with the customers and design team. They're still not legal in the United States."

Every interior feature is custom built to the driver right down to the one-off leather driving shoes they build for the lucky owner.

]]> <![CDATA[V8-Powered Pagani Zonda In Action?]]> Why not design their own? They obviously have the money to hire engineers to design the engine, and with the partnership with MB or AMG they can work out a deal for manufacturing it.

]]> <![CDATA[V8-Powered Pagani Zonda In Action?]]> So they can't use the 1990s Mercedes V12, because there aren't any more in stock... so they have to switch to a new engine... so shouldn't they take one that has a bit more life left than the supercharged V8, which won't be made much longer?

Classy how he's got to get out to open the gate by hand - I kept expecting the gate to magically open itself.

]]> <![CDATA[V8-Powered Pagani Zonda In Action?]]> There is just something about a V12 that makes a car feel more special even if it has the same power as a V8.
