I love Pagani CF, but honestly I am over the CF exteriors. That interior is gorgeous. If the exterior was black this would be my favorite Zonda to date. I think this, minus the canards, is one of the most beautiful cars ever.

why is the CF glossy in your pic while it's matte in the pics in the first post?

I know this car and the dealer very well and I have to say it is a truly wonderful example of the breed, but personally I also prefer the Coupe over the roasters.
But I need to correct a few things. First off this is not the last Roaster, 25 will be built not 24. Also the "Last Edition" lable is not an official Pagani tag, there is no such thing.
And last but not least the price tag. This car has been for sale for nearly a year and has shown no sign of shifting. It was originally with Bob Forstners in Park Lane and is now with Super Vettura, the directors of which are ex Bob Forstner employees.
At £1.4 million it is currently nearly £500k more than the market can sustain. To illustrate this the only Cinque Coupe outside of the Far East was recently sold in the UK for £200k less. Other coupes and roadsters in Europe that are for sale are in the £700k to £950k bracket and again are not shifting with a any real speed.
I firmly believe that the Zonda is a future classic whose price trend over the next 10 - 15 years will be very similar to the McLaren F1. But the owners, I think driven by speculative dealers are trying to force the issue now rather that let the market dictate the prices in the natural way.
My recent discussions with dealers including Super Vettura have been some what frustrating as it is obvious what they are trying to do. I hope common sense will soon see the light of day and these wonderful cars can get out of the dealers and onto the roads where they belong
