The Cinque Roadster is insane! I'm not sure how I feel about the snorkel over the cabin but it really is a stunning car no matter how you look at it.

I think the snorkel thing is awesome but I wonder if it really is necessary. Why not do an F1 style intake which is closer to the engine and has a bigger air intake. I don't see the point of stretching the snorkel so far towards the passengers and doing it so thin.

After watching the videos, I've decided that the snorkel is actually the crown jewel of the car. An F1-style snorkel could work too but I think what they did here just makes the car that much crazier and intense to look at which I think is awesome since the car was such an insane piece of kit in the first place!

The snorkel really is a crown jewel of this car. I have just heard that due to the better cooling Roadster is faster than Coupe, for the first time ever in supercars world.

Faster as faster in a straight or also on the track? I'm sure the coupe is still a bit more rigid than the roadster and thus should handle the corners a tad better. Still pretty cool how they managed to make the roadster quicker.

That snorkel is a perfect example of how Mr. Pagani seems to think and create. Most manufacturers would simply develop a part that functions and "works" with the rest of the car. Horacio must sit in front of a drawing board and think, ok it's functional, now how can I make it look like a world-class work of art?

Only when that process is fulfilled will he apply it to his car designs. It is a life goal to meet this man in person.

I don't get how anyone can paint that car, every single picture is breathtaking
