This may be the Pagani Huayra's first magazine test with unofficial performance numbers ever since the model was unveiled way back on the 20th of January 2011.

According to the April 2016 issue of Car and Driver, the very expensive and rare Pagani finishes the 400m dash in 11.2 seconds at 207 km/h and the 1000m dash in 20.2 seconds at 260 km/h. These numbers are in km/h format because this isn't your typical Car and Driver. According to research, this is the Brazilian version.

According to the American Car and Driver, the Ferrari F70/LaFerrari and the Porsche 918 Spyder -- one of which is similarly priced to the Pagani -- both do the quarter-mile sprint in 9.8 seconds while being 5 mph apart (150 vs. 145 mph, respectively).

But Pagani's Huayra, which is (of course) less powerful and even more than two years older than its Porsche and Ferrari rival does the slightly shorter 400m sprint in 11.2 seconds! At 207 km/h! Now convert that to and see how fast the Huayra trapped in mph format.

LaFerrari
0-60mph: 2.5s
0-100mph: 4.8s
0-150mph: 9.8s
0-1320ft: 9.8s (150mph)

918 Spyder
0-60mph: 2.2s
0-100mph: 4.9s
0-150mph: 10.5s
0-1320ft: 9.8s (145mph)

Huayra
0-100km/h: 3.3s
0-160km/h: 6.8s
0-240km/h: 16.5s
