so much win! the rear looks narsty. too bad we cant see the front. ferrari will basically have to put so much new technology and throw down the gauntlet to have a shot against this car

Some more pics I have found from testing in SA. Rumors are that those lights are just for camo, real lights will be different. I also doubt in that 411 km/h highspeed record during test, it is almost impossible to achive such speed on the public road and there no tracks long enough for that in SA, may be Mike will have something to say about this. Now lets pass to the pics.

Note the way door opens!

The photo was taken in Uptington and there are plenty long flat roads in the Karoo desert which you could get up to speed very easily. So if the car is capable of doing it, the roads are there to do so

PS. Anybody else notice the gullwing doors?!

Would be cool if none of the featured light designs would be based on the real design but simply made to confuse everyone. I kinda hope that's what they're doing.

I don't know why but I'm just not really feelin' the gullwing doors on the Zonda. I'm also not sure why 7 exhaust exits are necessary...

Wow, I didn't expect to see gullwing doors on a Pagani.

And what's up with the smaller pipes inside the two bottom exhaust pipes (of the four top ones)? It seems like they are throwing extra parts on the car that won't make it into production in an effort to hide the true design.

not a fan of gullwings either. it's just 6 exhausts the bottom one is to dispense oil or nails for anyone trying to chase it down James Bond style

Now those doors are not what I expected. But at the same time almost look too large.
I wish I knew where these cars where so I could go and take a look.
