A Zonda C12 S Coupe with a strong sporty character was displayed at the Paris Motor Show. Made subliminal by a development run on tracks, purposely made on request, for a customer loving the pleasant thrill given by the private road and track driving. This car has been developed by the manufacturer to satisfy extreme wishes. It is an example of the endless possibilities that Pagani has to customise the cars.
Technical features :
- The engine has been tuned increasing the power to more than 600 HP. The lubrication system is a dry sump and the cooling system has been improved.
- The gear ratios are optimised to suit a more sporty use.
- The aerodynamics has been modified for higher speed, the down-force increased.
- The sport exhaust without silencers and catalysts increases the power available.
- With the goal of reducing the car weight the side windows are in polycarbonate, there are competition seats, the configuration of the interiors has been totally redesigned, also including new pedals and a new steering wheel.
- The suspension setting is more rigid, more suitable to track driving.
- The brake system includes discs with a larger diameter and the cooling capacity has been increased.
- The roll cage is reinforced.
- There are also additional safety devices such as the external fire extinguisher and the battery disconnection.
Pagani Automobili is able to satisfy the wishes of its customers under all aspects: the car equipment, the esthetical personalisation and the performance.
The Zonda Monza is not complying to any specific race regulation in force, it has simply been built according to the specific requests of a customer fond of pure speed not polluted by any racing implication. For the first time this car is displayed to the world audience at the 2004 Paris Motor Show.
