Me with Mr. Horacio Pagani, taken in Trieste (Italy) on May 27th during the "Vanishing Point" rally. At that time there were SEVEN Zonda's present (four Zonda S, three Zonda F), a Ferrari Enzo, a Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano, a Mercedes Benz SLS AMG, a Ford GT with Gulf livery, a Rolls Royce Phantom and a Bentley Flying Spur.

A Zonda Cinque Roadster was also coming but I didn't have the chance to see it. I will be back in Trieste tomorrow to see the Zonda Cinque Roadster and to get a ride in one of the cars. I met also Horacio's son Christopher. I think I'll get a ride in Horacio's own Zonda S with bare carbon fiber body. You can see it in the last photo near the blue Zonda in the back.

Here's a pic taken with my iPhone with Mr. Horacio Pagani:



And two preview pics taken with a Fuji S3 DSLR camera and with a Nikon D70S:





Sorry for the off-topic! More pics soon and probably a video of the ride in the Zonda!

The orange Zonda F in the last photo is the very first prototype of the Zonda F. Its serial number is 00 of 25. It has lots of details taken from the Zonda Cinque: wheels, rear wing, front flaps, rear extractor etc. It's from a South American car collector but he keeps the car in Italy.

The blue Zonda S and the Enzo belong to the same owner. He also owns a Bugatti Veyron. He usually comes at rallys with two cars.

Infos from Horacio Pagani and from his son Christopher. VEEEERY FRIENDLY AND VEEEEEERY KIND PEOPLE!!!

I enjoyed every second of the event!!! Here you can see just some of the 350 pics I took at the "raduno" on Thursday (May 27th) and Sunday (May 30th). I should have had a ride in one of the Zonda's on Sunday but it was impossible due to rain, wet roads and traffic in Trieste.


Me and Christopher Pagani (Horacio's younger son). Pic took on Sunday (May 30th, 2010).
Behind: Pagani Zonda F First Prototype #00/25 and Ferrari Enzo.

When talking to Christopher about Zonda's and other cars (mainly criticizing the Ferrari Enzo and Lamborghini newest cars), he told me they were making a cyan Zonda for a customer.

AFTER I got home I saw THIS:























It's another one-off called the Zonda Uno and apparently it's for a member of the Quatar Royal Family who also owns these:
