Great photos, thanks for sharing. I just wonder how new Pagani C9 will look like, I expect some crazy masterpiece again.

Will the SLS be sharing its engine with the C9?

Thanks for the pics, Mike!

I thinks it is one of the most possible scenarios.

The SLS reminds me of a 1st gen Viper RT-10 with a hardtop...

That Zonda is bad ass!

That's exactly what MB has actually been using for engine testing for the SLS!

ameer is an unknown quantity at this point
I hope Pagani stays true to his exclusivity! I can't wait to see the new car!

Great find! I'm wondering what AMG has done with this new SLS. The Proto doesn't look so nice from the pics, but you can never judge those.

The Zonda doesn't look so all new to me though?
