BMW Sports Coupe Concept by Krasnov Igor

You might remember talented Russian designer Krasnov Igor from 2 of his previous concept studies, a 4-door Ferrari-badged sport saloon and the Marussia supercar. This time, Krasnov has come up with a conceptual proposal for a BMW sports coupe with an unusual, yet stylish asymmetrical design. The unnamed design study appears to be partly inspired from BMW's fabric-skinned, shape-shifting Gina concept while borrowing some styling cues such as the tall double kidney grille...

VIDEO:Pagani Zonda R On Track in Official Promo

Posted by Mr Dung Thursday, March 11, 2010

[gtspirit]

The official two-minute long trailer for the Pagani Zonda R shows the car as it goes from assembly to the track with a horribly cliche soundtrack. The car is shown tearing up both dry and wet tarmac, with only slight fishtailing.

The Italian-made Zonda R was designed to house a 6.0-liter V12 engine sourced from AMG. It produces 740 horsepower (750 PS / 552 kW) and up to 710 Nm (524 lb-ft) of torque. The engine is mated to a XTRAC six-speed sequential gearbox, and gets the car from 0-100km/h in 2.7 seconds. Carbon-ceramic brakes from Brembo keep the speed under control.

With a top speed of 350 km/h (217 mph), the 1,070kg (2359 lb) car looks to be capable of great things. At a price of €1,460,000, it better deliver on its promise.

Pagani's Three-Color Wonder: The One-Off Zonda Tricolore

Posted by Mr Dung Saturday, February 27, 2010

Pagani has released pictures of the Zonda Tricolore, a car based on the Zonda Cinque but with some marked differences. Only one Tricolore will be built and presumably it will be the same unit unveiled at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show. Its purpose is to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Italian equivalent of the British Red Arrows Display team which is known as the ‘Frecce Tricolori'.

Its tub is also made from carbon fibre weaved with titanium wire while the exterior is just carbon fibre. The front end features special LED lights that look like the tail fin of an airplane. Instead of the Cinque's air intake snorkel, the Tricolore has a small vertical fin on top of the engine cover whose nature and purpose will be fully revealed at Geneva. The transmission is an automated paddle-shift type.

A clear blue lacquer (polish) coating and Frecce Tricori-mimicking strips running on the sides of the car complete the impressive body look.

This once-off Zonda Tricolore will be priced at an eye-watering €1.3 million (US$1.76 million).

Million Dollar Plus Pagani Zonda F Crashes Into Parked Cars in Hong Kong

Posted by Mr Dung Monday, December 7, 2009

In any other case, a car crashing into some parked vehicles would be just another accident that would most likely have gone by unnoticed. However, when the vehicle involved in the crash is a million dollar plus Pagani Zonda F of which only 25 have been built, the incident is sure to capture our attention. We don't have many details on the crash other than it happened somewhere in Hong Kong, but feel free to check out the pictures after the jump.
