Revisiting all of the “Chris Harris on cars” videos as of late. I can truly say they are just as good today as they were an odd 5-6 years ago. Neil and Chris produce some of best content effortlessly.
The Pagani Huarya has the most beautiful inside I have ever seen out of any car.This car is pure art in my opinion any collectors dream machine.
+Nafir Alvarez ...absolutely! it is just amazing the attention to the details.... though I think the outside doesn't correspond in the same way... but it's just an opinion. I get the female like lines and all, but I don't love it in that sense. I like the zona better in this area.
+Nafir Alvarez I couldn't agree more brother.
This is the ONLY car that I appreciate as a GEARHEAD, *and for pure VANITY*. (Because I normally wouldn't care much about an interior personally, more about the performance and exterior, BUT, *the Huayra's interior is like a giant finely made watch mixed with a spaceship!* (PLUS it has a PROPER MANUAL GEARBOX!!! :D)).
+Nafir Alvarez yea unlike the bugatti the huayra dosent look like a piece of shit with a shifter in the middle
Interior looks like shit and way too try hard
+cybertree it's not a manual. It's a DCT
Pagani and Koenigsegg seem quite similar in their outlook and philosophy. Small companies, incredible engineers, "mad professor" type leadership and exquisite attention to the minutest detail.
jayaybe1 Koenigsegg doesn't even compare to Pagani.
but if the koeneisegg doesnt get out the track
I prefer Koenigsegg to Pagani by a long shot.
Juan Carlos Romero Thomas koeingisegg cars are amazing on track as well and search up "Koeingisegg agera something a Bugatti can't do" or similar to that lol
No. What? No. Sorry? No. It's the other way around, depending on what you look at. Pagani is about art. There is no innovation, no pushing the boundaries. They don't do their main components them selves, like Koenigsegg does. The Pagani here is just another fast car, than is also an art piece. Koenigsegg has real innovation and want to make something stand out. Those flaps on the Pagani? Koenigsegg has it also, just on the underside where it should be. Koenigsegg make their own engine and gearbox; that's a big difference. The Pagani is just a shell for the AMG engine. These two are not to be compared; they are to be celebrated for what they are. But if you insist, we can compare, and the Koenigsegg will be more special.
Damn what a nostalgia trip watching this 9 years later. Amazing how no matter how high the production and camera quality gets, these videos still convey so much of the atmosphere of these trips.
I think the turbocharging hiss is really good! Unlike most turbocharged supercars, it seems like the Huayra is proud of the fact that it has that special hissing noise. I think it sounds "futuristic", as if its a space ship getting ready to jump into hyperspace.
I imagine the hiss is Huayra for GOODBYE
I agree. Its amazing they actually have back panels that angle the airflow downward in order to keep the car from leaving the ground and taking flight!
Borgwarner turbochargers are the best of the best. The sound they produce is addictive :D
TheLastTank This Pagani is using the Borgwarner turbos?
Jeremy Lai Wai Kit Not only are they BorgWarner Turbos, they are the EFR series turbochargers. Basically low inertia, and more designed for response and racing. There are only a few ways to get that intoxicating noise; BorgWarner turbos or T04Z/T51 turbos. The turbos on the Huayra appear to be closest to the BorgWarner EFR 6758 in a twin turbo setup. I can't quite tell how large they are, but the exhaust housing looks fairly small for response and the induction side is relatively large, but you get the point. They are redesigned slightly so they are not direct equivalents but here are some pictures from one of the greatest auto journalists in the world - Dino Dalle Carbonare. What a name...

This man has some huge balls to be able to drive balls to the wall on back roads in such an expensive car.
Stop talking about balls and give his skills the praise it deserves and gets. Chris Harris might be one of the best driving Journalists out there.
Nope, this man just has mammoth testicles.
Mejevoli not better than Jeremy Clarkson though #JustSaying
Charles Nwofor I would rather see this guy on TG than Clarkson.
Mejevoli Skill is nothing without the confidence to unleash them.
i love the noise. turbos are hugely underrated, it sounds so aggressive and fast and mechanical and futuristic... love it!
Saw a couple of these in person and had to do more research. Man that thing sound/looks like the work of art that it is.
What always amazes me is the emotion that a Pagani brings out in the people who drive it. You're not just buying a top of the range hypercar, you're buying a machine that can generate pure exhilaration and cause a grown man to giggle like a schoolboy.
I hope Pagani never get bought out by VW, Audi or any of the big car companies. It would be a crying shame to see the quality that comes with having the time get a car refined down to the point of perfection ruined by the demands of corporate executives. May Mr Pagani forever to march to his own beat.
The reviewer was refreshingly passionate about his subject, had a masterful use of language. Others have quipped on his inflections, but I think the drama of it made the car come across as simply extraordinary. I thoroughly enjoyed this review.
From the journey to test unto the journey of the drive; and from the giddiness to the gears...brilliant. Keep it coming!
Years later and still my favourite Chris Harris video
Such a fan of Chris Harris, always so pure in his comments and the Huayra....ahhh what a machine!
This is one of those cars I dream of taking to a secluded area as my friends follow me in their buggati's, koenigsegg, etc. just to get a good use of the road. I believe having a super car is more than just having fun with it, but instead letting everyone have fun with it. Sadly Im not rich... This thing is gorgeous... And as much as some would hate me saying. I LOVE THAT ENGINE NOISE. I've never heard something so unique, and while it wasn't made for trips (obviously) I feel like it would never get old. Its just truly... amazing;D Finally those mirrors:D SO BEAUTIFUL
Seeing Harris gritting his teeth and going quiet means that he’s really enjoying himself
LOL Chris dressed as if he's spending a Saturday on the couch = Legend
Argentinean design, Italian body, and German engine. There is literally nothing that could go wrong in that combination.
sebasaiello Argentinian?? Ha ha fucking pirates
General Galtieri, Mussolini and Hitler. Tells you all you need to know about the mindset of each country.....
The engine went wrong
@@sausageseggandchips erm... No
Except for the engine seals
i've been watching chris harris's reviews for years on youtube. I think he is just as qualified to work on top gear as any other reviewer. I love his opinions and i think he is the top reviewer out there!
Watching the curves gives me constant chills. This car is a dream.
If I had that €1,300,000 to spend on a car. This would be mine. No Veyron, no Agera R, no P1. This is what I would pick! Absolutely stunning! And the Gullwing doors make it so much better!
Only downside is the sound, I would appreciate to hear the symphony of a proper twin-turbo V12.
Agreed, it's the only rear wheel drive high torque hypercar out there! Although you gotta admit the way Pagani designed the sound to hear the turbo hiss is pretty badass. That and you'll be able to hear when your girlfriend asks if you want road head :P.
Stephon Joseph Zonda RS is the answer ;)
cybertree
Isn't LaFerrari also RWD and high torque? And with the same weight but 200 hp more than Huayra?
amen brother
i agree. Though Koenigseggs and the Veyron are admirable and truly amazing, this car just has so much passion.
He said "If you wanna match the excitement, you need to buy a needle with some brown stuff in it" lol...
More correctly the needle should have a proper 2:1 ratio of Diamorphine to methamphetamine to be administered intravenously into the jugular as quickly as the vein will allow. .... The "goofball" as it's known would be only thing close to this car
Damn when hair starts to fall it goes quickly
But not both at the same time.
im starting to love this guy, presenting the vehicle to audiences.. quiet lovely
This car is just amazing, beautiful, fast, special....... This is a Master piece of mr. Horatio Pagani...
A car that will be known in the history books as the “ULTIMATE SUPERCAR”
why is this man not the new presenter of Top Gear
+Anthony Johnson That would be because his passion is making videos about cars, not fannying about setting caravans on fire and interviewing simon cowell.
mmtot I'm hoping he would take it back to its roots. Before it all became a bit too silly!
For me, he's deserving of much more exposure.
+Anthony Johnson You may know this by now... but he just got confirmed for Top Gear.
victor brunk yep, I heard about it earlier today. I'm hoping they will take in a different direction. Chris Harris is the best car journalist for me at the moment. I'm just a little bit concerned about Chris Evans.
Anthony Johnson
Captain America??? lol... jk.
woah, who knew that youtube had porn???
+berzu21 lol
+TrapBum hhahah
You fool lmao
Me 😔
F U!!🖕🏻🖕🏻
How to describe this car in 3 words...work of art
I've watched this video so many times, and God knows how many times l will watch it again....this car is an absolute beauty, piece of art of the car industry, something special and different from all we have seen so far. Thank you, Mr. Horacio, for this car, no matter that most of us will never experience the taste of driving it, but anyway it's the holiday for the eyes and soul!
Most beautiful car ever built in Italy and Italy makes the most beautiful cars
Could have done without the first few minutes of fluff, but beyond that it was a brilliant video. Very well done. And oh what an amazing machine, indeed.
I love Pagani, if only I had 2.3 millon euros laying around somewhere...
The most stunningly beautiful car I've seen in person. The attention to detail is immense. That interior is gorgeous
The soundtrack, although covered by the 2 turbos, is quite delightful, amazing!!! Gotta love these AMG twelves!!!
Pagani, taking over Lamborghini and ferrari's souls, while koenigsegg is devouring the german's strength
Top gear didn't do this car justice when they tested it, you can tell it's amazing when this guy drives it.
Top gear liked it though...
OH CRAP!!!🖕🏻🤟🏻👎🏻👊🏻👈🏻
WHAT A DRIVER! Absolute skill and confidence every single time he is behind the wheel! Hats off to you Mr Harris 🌟🌟🌟🌟
By far the best car journalist. The most in depth video I have ever seen. I have seen most especially on the Pagani. Great job. First he meets the car properly. Inspects it, feels it. Then he drives it while telling me all his thoughts and emotions. I am embarrassed I just saw this video for the first time now. All the others need to take notes. Well done Mr. Harris you are a true professional.
another wonderful Italian supercars. unique Italian style!
Constructor e inventor argentino. Pagani.
SMURF!?!?🖕🏻🤟🏻👎🏻👈🏻👊🏻
@@horacio4548 so what. The cars are made in Italy, by Italians. They are Italian cars.
@@BruceKent00 equivocado. Estilo y diseño argentino, fundador mentor argentino🇦🇷 saludos.
Who dislikes these videos ! Honestly !! This man is a legend.....awesome driver an tells it like it is . What's not to like ?
How many times can I watch the same video? I have not seen this video in a good little while.. but even after seeing it 3 or 4 times.. I am still entertained.. I am still in Love with the slow move slides and how Chris is so down to earth and lets me enjoy the drive just as much as he does.
Thank You! for bringing us along for the ride, Thank You! for presenting the images in a way that is just delicious.. and Thank the camera man! for being loyal and sticking with you!
God Love & God Bless!
With every video I see of this masterpiece, I fall deeper and deeper in love with the look, style, detail, power and originality. That V12 TT sounds so intoxicating, and that carbon fiber....
I would have to make it a daily driver. No way am I locking a beast like this in a cage. Sadly I don't think I'll even get to drive one, even sadder, don't think I would ever have the ability to own one in this lifetime unless I hit the lotto.
I really rate Chris as a presenter. He can drive and quite frankly seems like a nice guy
He might just be my next Tiff needell
You should've made a "/CHRIS HARRIS ON CARS" on the Panda. Just for fun xD
Je ne me lasse jamais de revoir les anciennes vidéos de Chris Harris
this is one of my favourite videos all the time.. so well put together
In my opinion, this is currently the greatest car in production. Destroys LaFerrari any day of the week. A true driver's car in a world of technology spaceships.
Haha I'll keep it in mind if I ever make a trip over to Italy. I just really appreciate what Horatio does.
***** Maybe it's an overstatement, but I know that if I ever had the choice between the two I would take the Huayra in an instant. But that's just me, and I suppose they were designed with a little different mindsets.
What about the Venom GT 0-60mph in 2.7? or the down tuned Bugatti, engine which is capable of 1,600hp but was melting shit, down tuned to 1200hp
leonardimas1 Clearly you have all the credentials required to make a statement like that. You've watched it being built, examined and driven it, right? Does the term "troll" mean anything to you?
leonardimas1
thankyou for pizza and spagetti bolognese
I like that he was standing in a room full of gentlemen all wearing white collard shirts being sophisticated and what not, all waiting to drive the Huayra. While Chris is standing there in a shirt that says "I AM HOONAGAN", that shit's hilarious.
Work of art...saw one in person and never seen anything like it. A true master piece. To be able to drive one would be heavenly.
I think this has one of (if not the) most magnificent interiors in a car that I've ever seen (it's so thematic, looks like something that should be on display in a gallery).
personaly i love this turbo sound
Agree. It sounds amazing. I would never get sick of rolling on the throttle
SMURF!!!🖕🏻🤟🏻👎🏻👊🏻👈🏻
I think that Pagani has gone soft. Ah darn looks like I gotta go drive it now...
I have been lucky enough to have seen one in the flesh, get centimeters away, admire the details up close, study the shape and flow of the car, to look at the quad exhaust and i got a cheeky hand run down the side and back too, its a truely insanely cool car, i prefer the looks to the P1, i think i like this a lil less than a P1 in the sense that if i saw the two one the road on different days....the Huayras beauty and presence would take my breath away, where as the P1 would drop my jaw and make my heart flutter, i love the Noise the Mclaren range makes a bit more too.
I absolutely love this car. It is everything I could possibly want in a vehicle, the design, the engine, the engineering, the attention to detail and craftsmanship. Each Pagani made is a unique piece of automotive art, and I can only imagine what this will be worth if there is still a collectors market 100 years from now.
No one is making interiors like this. Art meets automotive. As it should be.
did chris harris just tell me to do heroin lol
Inuyou X7 . He told me, too. Here I go.
haha lol
SMURF!!!🖕🏻🤟🏻👎🏻👊🏻👈🏻
"the quality of the cabin and the jewellery that is going on in here is staggering. we need to celebrate the details on this car" - poetic - bravo
This is not just a car this is passion and love for automotive, love these reviews.
If I could have any car in the world it would be this one.
I currently have a 400 hp 2013 WRX STI with handling mods. It's a joy to drive but this car is the apogee of luxury and a driver's car.
I would take turbo noises and a big engine over a huge engine any day. It sounds like a space ship! :) The turbo noises make a car sounds so much more mechanical :)
how much cash would you say you've spent (on mods) in your STI?
Cla mmy I would say with only doing a little bit of the work myself, almost $20K Canadian. I did order more unique and hand made parts than usual though.
Cla mmy Also I would like to say that with the changes that I've made to it, it's almost the perfect car. Every time I see it I just want to drive somewhere and when I do go somewhere with it it's always so much fun.
The only two things that I find are drawbacks are lack of luxury and that it's too loud for highway cruising. That could probably fall into luxury as well as the sounds insulation on this car is very poor.
The sound, feeling under hard acceleration and the mechanical feel and sound of everything in the car more than makes up for those two.
Even if it was slower than other cars with paddle shifters, I still think this would be a now fun driving experience. This car makes you grin like an idiot every time you push it hard :)
ciph3ro *more fun driving experience ... Swype Autocorrect
WRX STi is such an amazing car. It's the first car I ever drove and the first car I ever owned. If there's one thing I loved about it, it was that typical boxer engine rumble, which sounds better than any supercar ever will. That and the turbo. Oh man. I love Subaru. But driving a supercar is a completely new experience altogether.
That interier...Thats just genial :O
Saw one of these on the highway here in the USA and that made my week. The thing is a work of art on wheels.
Lovely!
This, the Cinque and Tricolore are my favourites, pure details.
if only i could get a small loan of a million dollars!
1 million dollars wouldn't even be enough :)
+james tang it's enough T to invest enough to save up for it
you'd need to have atleast 2 million dollars of EXTRA money to buy this car.
AMA why 2 milli?
Have you considered combining your loans into one, manageable loan to make your dreams come true?
Chris Harris: Its not a Nissan Micra
Best video I've seen on a car yet. Thank you.
I love many of Chris Harris' videos for different reasons. This one might be the most stylish and cool of the CHOC series.
The poor guy ran out of breath just driving this car without traction control! He doesn't need to go to the gym that day!
what's with the dual turbo boost, it give's me the chills. Beautiful car....
Chris Harris, You are without question the very best at what you do. If I could have back all of the hours I've spent watching your videos, I would gladly exchange them for just one more of your wonderful reviews. Keep up the good work man, you are in a word, brilliant!
I came.
Great review Chris, I like the fact you tested it in a real road, rather than a test track or a boring airfield.
a needle with some brown stuff LOL most crass thing ever
Pagani zonda f roadster is my favorite supercar I think that car has emotion and beauty is art, the huayra lacks something, it hasnt the same sense of piece of art that the zonda have its too agresive looking and looks heavy but its still a special car i wish i could see it real world
I love this car. The sound it makes is fantastic. It has that really deep growl of a muscle car and then all that wind noise going on it's absolutely beautiful
Loved this, thanks for the subtitles (Wife watching Strictly) !!
I love the turbo sound of this car. I personally think that this car sounds better than the Zonda
Have you changed your mind maybe? I love turbo spools but zonda is like a beast from another planet
people say horacio pagani is the new enzo ferrari, i disagree. we have enzo, ferrucio, and horacio. and pagani is continuing that legacy of italian automotive icons. all italian cars are special but in the modern world nothing is as special as the pagani on the living planet (other than the beautiful coach works coming out of touring). but if we go the classic route the cars that are special in the same way are the vintage ferrari, lamborghinis, maseratis, lancias, alfas etc...
I LOVE paganis
Danny Contreras the only other cars that are as special at this time, are the coach built cars from touring, so the f12 berlinetta lusso, and the disco volante basically
+Adam Othman Christian van Koenigsegg is the absolute king of the Supercar world today. He did what every supercar manufacturer wanted to do forever. Build a car with incredible power and a 1:1 power to weight ratio. He built the first ever megacar. And Koenigsegg has the highest density of self-made inventions in the supercar world. They make everything by theirselves. Engine, chassis, body, transmission, ride. You name it. I agree that Pagani is absolutely amazing and the Huayra is a piece of art. But Koenigsegg is just some next level shit. Out of this world. :)
Rob Ztar You have fact, but that doesn't release you from the fact that this view is subjective. for me the car is about emotion and thats what makes the best part of the experience for me. where as for some its technology or innovation (that also is very important and I'm not bashing that), and so for me the most important thing that pagani has done is keep the emotion, pagani keeps the car special especially combined with the fact that there is a traditional italian way of building these things and that alone is art. Im not saying what k has done isn't important or innovative and I'm not saying they aren't hand made or in no way special. I'm saying theres cars that are built by science and technological advancement. and theres cars designed purely from the heart. they're often slower and sometimes complete shit to drive, but its so emotional and so beautiful yet flawed, but you love it so its flaws don't matter. the k machines are literally perfect in every way and there is no reason to love these machines, but its the other car that feels more like a living thing because it seems so humanly flawed.
I agree. But as a German, I cannot help but admire perfection over emotion! :)
first car reviewer I've seen sweat and get out of breath doing a review....that's why you're the man
I love the sound of this car... And the looks and pretty much everything about this beast👏👏👌👌👌👌👌
you have some huge balls turning ESC off on a car that expensive and driving it on the road.
it isn't his. he won't be liable for the damage since he is on a media test drive from a car magazine's side.
He knows what he is doing
DYNGBAGGE!!!🖕🏻🤟🏻👎🏻👈🏻👊🏻
This is a world class car 730 hp to the rear wheels 1000 NM-tq ( 737 lb ft ) 1350 kg dry ( 2,976 pounds ) 230 mph. 0 mph to 60 under 3.5 seven gear manual transmission ( paddle shifters) . A grate combination of power, performance art design and technology. this car will kill a Ferrari F12 even a corvette zr1 even tho it would be a good race.
***** well look at it this way a corvette has 638 HP and 604 lp-tq top speed just 205 mph. Both pagani and Ferrari F12 uses a v12 engine with the same power out put of 730 HP t do not think a f12 can hit 230 mph like pagani can so for that reason is faster and I do think it better looking
Knight Ryder
A ZR1 is only slower then a F12 in acceleration, As it should be, Take it round track, It be like a Miata vs a 911 Carrera. And much better?.....When is the last time you seen ANY Ferrari hit 100k miles?...Sorry, But a car being better, is as subjective as the looks.
Dre Ray I do not know about that I think that will be a good race I do think the zr1 can win cause it very light and high toqure at low rpm
Knight Ryder the zr1 is heavy, and power means nothing on the track if you can't put it down correctly. This Huayra would destroy the ZR1.
PrOBrien a zr1 light
That Turbo sound :3..I love it!
Chris, you need to borrow one and take it on the Ring or any track, please.
Enough said. Let's see the damn thing on a race track at 10/10's!
Skip to 3:20 if you wanna watch a Pagani haul ass and don't give a crap about the problems they had at the airport ;)
You can skip to 4:03 where the video actually starts.
Hello Chris, you did a truly great review here, thank you for doing this for us.
It's gorgeous. A decade on and I still think this is one of the best looking cars ever made. I like turbo hiss too, so the sound is quite nice to me!
This is epic, top gear should have just had him driving like a hooligan the whole time.
Hoonigan*
IT’S A BIT SHIT!!!🖕🏻🤟🏻👎🏻👈🏻👊🏻
Always liked turbocharge noise.
What noise?
Only WEIRDOS don’t
Probably best car ever made. Italian Design with German Engineering. Unbelievable & Unbeatable
Your tests are the best Chris, keep like this
"Super-exclusive" hyper cars seems to the latest thing these days. I'm going to start a car company and build such cars. My cars will cost 4 million dollars and be SO exclusive that when you buy it, the car will stay at the factory and the car owner will only get to drive the car on nights that I get laid!
Soooo, never.
Had to.
Funnyj33ns Ha Ha. I didn't say "never", just "very rarely"!
RUBIZEN Ferrari beat you to that idea. Ferrari FXX K is kept by ferrari except for you to use at the track.
Are you serious? I suppose to people who extremely rich....that kind of exclusivity is appealing.
RUBIZEN 100% serious. Top Gear (BBC good one..) did a review on it using the only black one and was one of the weird things I caught them saying. check it out.
This car should be in a museum or jewelry store, not on the road
Chris, the only guy who can do a full on review while keeping this beast on the road and getting it sideways... Bravo, nobody does it better 👏👏
i saw one today and got to just look at it for a while. It looks so different in real life. It has a wonderful shape, yet looks like a jet. Wow.
04:48 how long before you loose that cover-part of the key?
There is a holder at the base for the cover-part to go on
SMURF!!!🖕🏻🖕🏻
264km total, avg speed 62km/h...
THAT`S NOT WHAT IT`S MADE FOR!
That's usually what happens on tight, twisty mountain roads.
Sure the car has a top speed of about 320km/h. But there isn't enough road between the point where one hairpin straightens out and the breaking point for the next. Even if you had a Radical SR3 I doubt you'd go anywhere near the legal speed limit on those roads (which btw is about 60km/h, or maybe 70km/h).
There's a reason cheap-performance in Europe is usually a hot-hatch with about 200hp (as opposed to a pony car with 500hp). It's economical, and it's enough to have fun on roads like this.
MrFalconfly It's top speed is 371 actually...
halabi97
It could've had a topspeed of 440km/h I'd still doubt it'd get past 70km/h before he reached another corner.
MrFalconfly Its not the actual top speed that makes driving the car enjoyable, its how it gets there and the acceleration it achieves, not to mention the balance and feel of the chassis and steering wheel. Superb.
Chris Harris is personally my favorite part of the /DRIVE channel
Always my dream. This, the Mercedes SLR Mclaren Stirling Moss edition, and the SLS black series. All beautiful, all unique, all have a design heritage, a big power plant, power being sent to the rear wheels, and a dreamy price tag of over 300,000 dollars.
11:36 that is the most disturbing sound to hear on a car, especially a very expensive hypercar like this.
the gullwing doors are like the cherry on top of the pie
It's got a really unique design. I love the way it looks 😍
I just love the leap it takes on between 11:42 and 11:43 :D
