    The creation of a man who crossed great oceans,
    Worked his way up from humble beginnings,
    And stood up to the world’s supercar titans.
    What he created would be an amalgamation of aesthetics and raw brutality,
    Singing with horsepower and dancing with flowing curves,
    The Pagani Zonda was a modern masterpiece.
    A supercar that stood on its own,
    As lamborghini’s became stale, and old,
    And ferrari’s became clinical and boring,
    Pagani’s Zonda spilled its colorful paint across the streets of Italy,
    And breathed life back into Modena.
    This is the story of a breakthrough performance from a true virtuoso.
    A tale spun of carbon fiber and 91 octane,
    This is the story of Horacio Pagani’s opening act.

    Lots of companies have fought tooth and nail to enter the hyper car realm, but only a few have succeeded of late. Bugatti did it with raw power, German engineering, and immense funding, Koenigsegg with unparalleled engineering and a huge dose of Scandinavian madness, and Pagani with pure Italian artistry and passion. It feels like a new company tries to enter the field every week, and dies just as quickly. It takes something special to make a hyper car company from scratch.

    Fun fact: Pagani had built a second test unit of the Pagani Zonda which is said to have been constantly reused. Having over 5 engine swaps, 7 gearbox swaps and many body modifications made over the years. And now currently, the test unit is sitting in display at the Pagani museum with supposedly 1,000,000km clocked on the odometer. The car is now dubbed as the Pagani Zonda Le Nonna.

      This is true, I saw the car at the old plant back in 2014 and it had well over 1 million km to it. Every time a new engine would appear in a Zonda, everything was tested in that model, same with gearboxes, gauges, clutches and bodywork. At the time it was blue and was driven around the landscape for hours and hours to reach more than 10,000 km testing every little detail.
      Another fun fact from that day I was there, they were putting the last touches on Lewis Hamiltons new purple car, and it was the only one completely assembled at that time.

      Definitely work of art, rolling art for sure but I definitely am not one for Perfection. The last thing I want in a sports car is for it to be perfect. I want my sports car or exotic car to be something like in perfectly perfect you wanted to have its own kind of personality and characteristics where every single car is like slightly different so you have to get to understand it you have to get to know it I want a car where somebody else like family or something cannot just jump into it and just drive it away like you can every other goddamn car on this planet I want someone or rather I want a sports car or exotic car where I know all of its quirks I know all of its weaknesses but also all of its strength and on top of that that's what you get when you're dealing with a hand build automobile like Lotus and Lamborghini was back in the day.

      Koensiegg and the way his engineers attack problems is just mind blowing.
      I don't know what separates him and his team from others or if their culture is different. I just hope they never change in my lifetime, and continue to slaughter the engineering aspect of their vehicles.
      I also prefer Koensieggs looks. The Gamera is possibly my favorite looking hypercar.

I could be watching Top Gear/Grand Tour, Motor Trend or even Velocity and still get bored of whatever car they're speaking of, but not here. Here, watching this video, my eyes are glued to the screen, ears open and listening. I've never met Mr. Pagani or actually touched one of his cars, but after watching this video, I feel like I have. The Detail in his vehicles and certain aspects of the supercars/ Hypercars Mr. Pagani Built inspire me to do more. Your Video is 90% of the reason why as well.

    And one thing you always do, is make me give so much more respect to the creators of the car brands.
    I always wondered why Pagani kept making different versions of the same car, but after this video, Pagani gets my most respect ever. True art.
    Thank you for doing these. We wait patiently every 2 months and you always deliver.

    Your videos just keep reminding me that there will always be people to listen to the music of roaring engines

      Roaring engines and beating human hearts drive passion. Even in an all electric world, we will have driven people, and we will then have moving works of art.

    Horacio Pagani is a legend, he made one of the greatest cars in the world, he gave up working for Lamborghini and made something even better, and he made the perfect super car.

    The pacing, the commentary, the music. It's like lost art from 2000s and before. This is how you make a video, a documentary filled with hype and enthusiasm putting the cars and people behind it on a pedestal to better appreciate it. This video alone convinced me why paganis are special the analogy to art pieces makes so much sense.

    Zonda R is still my fave to this date. Ferrari and Lamborghini can never come close to that beast of art.

    The interior of the first Pagani Zonda is one of the most gorgeous fantasies of car control ever come to life. The entire car is brilliant. But where the driver sits is like technical Heaven on Earth. Bravo.

    When I was a kid, the instant I laid eyes on the Zonda, it instantly became my favourite car of all time, and as its legacy progressed it just became better and better looking. Pagani is highly likely one of the key driving forces that made me love cars like I do now.
    Just as a small aside, Squidd, the instant I saw the community post, I knew you'd do Horacio's story justice, and boy did you. I was captivated the entire time, with the excellent writing, editing, and flow, truly a beauty that would make Horacio proud.
    Marvellous work, Squidd's team. I look forward to the next jaw dropping video from you.

    Art. Any time I've ever personally laid eyes on a Pagani in person, all I ever see is artwork on four wheels, and a V-12 beast powering it along. A soulful sound emanating from the exhaust, I recall one time driving around South Beach here in Miami where I reside, with the windows up and music playing, I heard a Huayra coming the other way. And it was blocks away. Mind you, I was driving past a golf course so that sound didn't echo off anything. Then I finally saw her. All carbon fiber, the owner driving her nicely. Being half Argentinean, it also gives me pride that Horacio is leading the way in so many respects. Pagani is only one of two hyper car makers that I genuinely am always excited to see what's next, the other being Koenigsegg which I hope you'll eventually make a video on.

    Pagani is basically what I wanted to be when I was small. Somebody working with dream cars, and dreaming them up later on. Even if I didn'T have the same life story, it is always nice to hear about those who do reach their dreams. Especially if the results are just as you described: Moving pieces of art

    • @the.squidd
