    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.

    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.

    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.

I seriously cant get enough of your videos and look forward to the next one. This was a well done piece on Horacio and the path his life took to get to where he is today. His cars are pure automotive art and they may not be the fastest around, they definitely are the most unique and kept pushing the envelope, especially with the carbon fiber. Many people dont know the early life and how Horacio forged, or autoclaved his path to where he is now, they most certainly will now! Keep up the great work!!!!

    Would have loved to see the Zonda Revolucion HP Barchetta in more detail, especially since he made it after one of his wooden scale models that he created when he was 13 years old or so. In my opinion it’s his best work yet, the paint scheme and design language is simply astonishingly beautiful.
    Thank you for the beautiful and informative video on one of the most important pioneers in this era. A true visionary and craftsman like very few others.

    Man I gotta say, the work you put on these videos is probably the gold standard for video essays on cars. I basically grab popcorn before watching your videos at this point.
    Side Note: Would really love a video on the GT40. I know we've the Ford v Ferrari movie but at this point your videos are a more accurate representation of facts and honestly, just hit better

    Great storytelling as always! Now you should eventually make a video about how Lamborghini was born from Ferrari too, from the 60s to present day.

      So many great things were created because someone didn't like their boss! Ferrari, Lamborghini, this channel!

    This is the best video about Pagani that I have ever seen. I have discovered this channel and I've suscribed right away. Another car maker, Alejandro De Tomaso usually is regarded as italian-american even thouhg he put the argentinian flag in his logo. De Tomaso was argentinian born from an argentinian father.
