The Pagani Zonda HP Barchetta has just been unveiled
at Pebble Beach 2017 and before you ask, it will apparently be the last Zonda.
We're not convinced.
Just three units of the HP Barchetta are bound for
the production line and one of them is said to be going directly into Horacio
Pagani’s private collection. It also happens to be one of the wildest Zondas
ever produced.
The most significant difference between the
Barchetta and all other Zondas before it is the chopped windscreen that
drastically alters the entire design of the car. As for the rest of the car, it
appears to be a mish-mash of parts from a number of one-off Zonda 760 models,
including its vented hood, redesigned taillights and rear wheel covers like the
Zonda ZoZo.
The HP Barchetta has a Cinque-style
carbon roof scoop, rear wing and rear diffuser, redesigned wheels (finished in
blue on one side and gold on the other) and a stunning white interior.
Pagani first said the one-of-three Zonda Tricolore
would be the final Zonda and for a time, it was, rolling out of the factory in
2011. However, soon after, wealthy enthusiasts around the world started
commissioning one-off vehicles, forming the 760 series and keeping the Zonda alive
to this day.
