 | Re: Autobild: The Battle Of The Century!!!! The Zonda is a much more ostentatious car than the McLaren or Porsche but I really like it's outrageousness - I certainly think it compares with the other two very well. It is probably the most exotic supercar you could buy. In many ways I feel Pagani have replaced Lamborghini as the ultimate expression of Italian automotive passion - even if it does have a Mercedes engine. |

| Re: Autobild: The Battle Of The Century!!!! On average, every 5,000 km (3,125 miles), the F1 requires a € 10,000 new clutch.

| Re: Autobild: The Battle Of The Century!!!! That's really expensive but so is the car itself. On the other hand this is not your average E 320 CDI taxi which does a million miles a year. |

| Re: Autobild: The Battle Of The Century!!!! Okay i havent driven the cars.. but here is one example.. when i talked to a guy that owns the orange zonda you will see on TG this week and the Darkred roadster.. he said that he didnt have any probs with his car.. and that the damn car had a service intervall like an ordinary MB and that is something spectacular in the world of supercars.. PS In EVo they write.. We have been testing this silver C12S alongside the Brand New Roadster..and allthough the silver car has 120.000 km´s on it.. it doesent miss a beat compared to the brand new roadster... I cant give you more than that at this moment.. i will report back when i buy one

| Re: Autobild: The Battle Of The Century!!!! Well, the F1 is also a great piece of german engineering. BMWs 6 litre v12 was the best production engine of the 20th century and it took the likes of Porsche and Ferrari 10 years to cath up. |

| Re: Autobild: The Battle Of The Century!!!! No doubt.. that engine is one of the best V12´s ever.. I want BMW to boost up their current 760 V12 so that it can match the 600´s from MB.. i think they will soon.. if not now.. but defenetly when the new 7er comes..

| Re: Autobild: The Battle Of The Century!!!! This is all the more reason I want to see what BMW can do with a supercar of their own. They're the only one of the top 3 Germans without a supercar at the top of their range. M
