I love it. Raw carbon, light simple, clean....

I am sure the screens can show any number of display options. An analog tach is nice but not as useful these days. I use the shift light on my 12C when giving it the stink.

Too much science, too little art imho.

Horacio Pagani struck the right balance with the Huayra, and to those naysayers of the F150, brace yourselves because the car is amazing inside and out...only issue I saw is that I could not afford one.

Somewhat off-topic but interesting to the upcoming slew of new supercars I also can confirm that the 458 Monte Carlo won't be called the Monte Carlo Praise The Lord.

Just take a look at the Enzo interior, it is minimalistic like the P1's cockpit. I haven't made up my mind yet but I can imagine that it looks great if you sit behind the wheel.

But I have to say the Zonda was a great looking car, but that Huyara is as ugly as sin, and the interior looks like a European Brothel, I guess that is why some of the guys on here appreciate it over the Bare Carbon Race Car Interior of the P1.
Ugly as sin.... European Brothel.... You crack me up Senna

Might I have to add that I think the Huayra looks like a hideously mutated guppy fish from the outside, and the Zonda still looks better both in and out (though not as good as the P1)?

I've seen the inside of an Enzo, and it's a pretty fantastic place to be.
