The Pagani roadcar model range would not be complete without a Roadster version of the Zonda Cinque. As the name implies it is created in the Modenese Atelier in a limited production run of merely five exclusive pieces like its coupé sister.
All weight reduction measures adopted by Pagani to improve driving pleasure, performance and emission of the Zonda Cinque have found use in the Cinque Roadster as well. The Carbon-Titanium chassis has been redesigned for the compensation of a missing roof.
The Cinque experience is enhanced with the roof stored in the front bonnet, when the storm of air being fed to the 678hp Mercedes AMG V12 engine through the massive intake just inches over the passengers' ears, accompanies the exhaust note of the bespoke Zonda Cinque Inconel and Titanium exhaust system.
Whether you opt for a relaxed country drive in Tuscany's hills, visiting Florence and other centres of the Italian Renaissance, or a record hunt at the Nürburgring, this 1.3 milion Euro + taxes jewel will reward with every day drivability and ultimate performance thanks to the different drive modes of the sequential robostised gearbox and an adjustable suspension setup that feels at home as well at the racetrack as on bumpy roads.
The constant efforts of Horacio Pagani and his team shows once again how art and engineering can be combined in the Zonda Cinque Roadster.
I hate to say it, but it's getting to the point where if I've seen one aggressively built race-prepped-yet-street-driven-limited-edition super-car, I've seen them all.
All I can think about while looking at that car is the heart palpitations I'd start getting trying to drive it on local roads.

Beautiful car but things don't add up in the acceleration numbers. 3.3sec 0-60mph and 9.4 sec 0-100mph?
Below are some of the cars that were already tested multiple times in multiple magazines with better results on the 0-100mph and similar results on the 0-60mph:
C6 Z06 0-60mph 3.4(C&D) sec 0-100mph 7.7 sec
GTR(best of 3.2 sec) best of 7.9 sec 0-100 mph
Porsche 911 Turbo 3.4 sec 0-60 mph(C&D) around 8 sec 0-100mph (The GT2 is even quicker)
The vipers are in the same league as the car above
Like I said gents, these numbers don't add up, that pagani zonda should be a bit quicker than that.
