Basically till now they havenīt done anything wrong. The car isnīt still registered and it is only a showcar. Who knows if it comes back to Italy to be prepared again for a costumer or the car will be a "dealer car". Currently it is in Canada and got canadian dealer plates, but as far as I know they havenīt broken any rules yet.

My point is America is basically the largest market for Pagani now or at least one of the largest markets for the Huayra and they canīt afford to have negative press about their product. The business is very strict and hard, most of the companies still fail in the supercar business.
You can also see that the interieur of the Huayra is different to the european or asian ones and it has at least all the airbags. I donīt know how they work and honestly I am also not interested in. The car fulfills from the looking all the regulations and just because of the simple copied plate you donīt know anything more.

 

The Huayra in question is a North American demo car and has not been sold to anyone.

 

These are all 100% valid points.

We really don't know what will be this car's final stop, or what its final spec or data plate wording might be upon delivery.

I guess then I find it just a little strange why someone would have gone through the trouble of engraving and then attaching to this car a data plate that cites a seven year old, expired exemption belonging to another company, that they have not been granted anyway, and another exemption that they have never asked for.

I guess I am alone in this regard.

 

All that matters is if it has road legal tires😜😜😜

 

You are not.

interesting discussion, and I appreciate the detail brought to light.

Please let us know what you learn from the manufacturer. It seems further speculation at this point is not warranted.

 

If it's good enough for the Europeans, it's good enough for me.

If I'm spending this kind of money on a car, I got bigger fish to fry than some silly placard / regulation that only holds water stateside.

 

I'm sure it would matter to you if you lived in the states and spent that much on a car and couldn't register it lol

 

^But then again that is hardly the case here.

For all we know Pagani are still under way to get the car approved in the US.
Ain't no way in hell someone is paying 1.5mill usd for a Huayra..and pagani takes that money and leaves them with a unregisterable car..

They aren't selling lemonade from a stand one day only..

 

Why put the plaque at all if its not for sale. I don't see the advantage of forging a tag
