Overview

This page is a catalogue summary while we rebuild it as a full ownership review. It is not yet a buying guide.

The Zonda C12 was Horacio Pagani's first production car, and it arrived with a level of craftsmanship that few small manufacturers could match. The body was made from carbon fibre, the cabin was trimmed like a luxury watch, and the 6.0 litre Mercedes-Benz V12 sat behind the driver. The central quad exhaust and the aggressive rear diffuser became signatures. It was the beginning of a line that would culminate in the Utopia.
