Cool Pics of 2008 Pagani Zonda R, 1 of the Ultimate AMG Engines!

And just think, the engine is naturally aspirated!! What if Pagani thru on a pair of superchargers or turbochargers!!

As it is it has 750 hp, and is even 130 KG lighter than a Zonda F, which means it only weighs a total of 1100 KG!!! To put that into perspective, the mighty Ferrari FXX track-only supercar has a power to weight ratio of 642bhp/ton, whereas this new Zonda R has a power to weight ratio of 693bhp/ton!!! If the FXX can hit 60 MPH in 2.8 seconds easily, then this Zonda R should be able to do it in a Veyron-tying 2.5 seconds!! I wonder what the 1/4 mile in this thing would be!!! 9 sec. perhaps?

Pagani is supposed to unveil a totally new car at next year's Geneva car show, and it's supposed to be better in every way to the Zonda, which just boggles the mind.

Lightbulb Thanks for the correction bro!!

That's terrible that Evo magazine would put the wrong picture for the engine of the Zonda R


P.S. - You don't happen to have the web link to a large, high quality pic of the Zonda R Engine, do you? Thanks in advance!!
