Is a Zonda really worth it?

[zondaboy]

Regarding the white/red Zonda S, I found this advert on Pagani's Facebook page (I think the ad is a few years old): https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.21903871...

The car was owned by (and might still be owned by) Estonian entrepreneur Margus Reinsalu, Chairman of investment company KC Grupp (www.kcgrupp.com). Mr. Reinsalu also has a Twitter page: https://twitter.com/margusreinsalu

That Zonda is a real bargain at the price advertised and is LHD. Lots of scope for further developments and enhancements. It might be worth contacting Mr. Reinsalu direct or the factory for more details. Not the nicest spec so you might be able to negotiate an even lower price.

Hope this was helpful.

Got it. The Zonda you mentioned is way overpriced unfortunately but I will keep it in mind as a last resort.

[SpeedFreakDave]

Ok no worries

What's going rate at present? Not much out there and I heard the factory are buying at decent prices. Didn't joe m garage sell the blue s model for 900gbp?

I did some more research and there are a couple of Zonda's available at very different price points:

-Supervettura has a Zonda F (Shmee recently filmed it) but its a coupe and priced in pound sterling which made it ridiculously overpriced

-SuperGarage Marbella has a blue Zonda roadster, my favorite so far. 1.4 million euros

-Bob Forstner still has that silver Zonda roadster, probably my 2nd choice, also 1.4 million euros

-Auto Salon Singen also has a roadster, but 1.9 million euros - seriously?!!

I am headed to Europe and will make my first stop at Marbella to visit SuperGarage. I am thinking about starting a "My Road To Zonda" online diary but I will see how I feel first; this whole experience has been giving me headaches.

Don't expect anyone to feel too sorry for you!

I had a memorable day last week driving these two back to back.
For sheer driving pleasure, the Zonda was in a league of its own ..

I thought that the SuperGarage blue Zonda Roadster F had been sold unless it's been put back on the market.

Here are some recent pictures of it in Switzerland on UK plates along with a blue 7.0 S also on UK plates:

Completely different Zonda! I was in contact with SuperGarage recently so it should be available still.

Up your budget and buy the Cinque. It's in Marbella, I had a call the other day from a client who was asking me if it was worth the asking price of 3.5 mil Euros.

I think it is.

[dudleybloke]

Bargain.

[hunter 66]

Yes a steal now 993 RS close to £400 k or 550 Euros ..........did see a nice Zonda a few days ago a blue one , they are special

That wouldn't make any sense at all. My plan has always been to find an older model and upgrade it to a 760 spec. Upgrading it would probably only cost me 300,000-400,000 euros so buying a Cinque for 3.5 million is not economical.

Looks like the GJ may have been out of commission this year - was this still up for sale at this point??

Don't know about that but, for what it's worth, Amian Cars are still claiming to have the GJ available on their website:

http://www.amian-cars.com/en/pagani-zonda-s-f-coup...

Maybe they just never update their website, or are perhaps hoping to invite inquiries in order to try and lead potential buyers to different vehicles they might have access to?

It's down as being sold on their website.

Can't see you updating a older car to 760 spec for close to 400 euros...

In case you missed it, it's the dark blue Zonda Roadster F with crème leather and a red soft top in the last two pictures when you scroll down that I was referring to not the lighter blue Zonda S with the blue wheels. Both of these vehicles were for sale at SuperGarage. I believe the blue wheeled S was once Russian owned. From the pictures it looks like both cars are owned by the same owner or family from the Far East.

[zondaboy]

Did you ever consider the white Estonian registered Zonda S, Darksider? I posted some info about it on this forum last month. It was on sale for sub £500K a while back but I don't know if it was ever sold or if owner decided to keep it.

Neither can I to be honest.
