Huayra And you thought Porsche's options were expensive.....

[Gianclaudio]

Pagani has released the retail price and options for the Huayra:

Most expensive options ever?

Luggage set, €14,950!! That's as much as many cars! My Up! Only cost €11,000!!

People worrying about the price of their optional extras selection shouldn't be buying a Pagani.

If you wanna run with the wild dogs - don't piss like a puppy.

Sonus Faber high end sound system costs 80k. It's not on that list, which I guess makes sense...

Pagani had some nice time when the big boys didn't make a super car, but the time of that poser company is done and over. The big boys are back, and the Huayra looks much more idiotic now than it did when first shown. Pure bling bling without substance.

I have fond memories of the Zonda, but this is where the story ends.

But that is exactly what Panani is doing with their Huayra when put against the real wild dogs.
Adding crazy expensive options doesn't change that. They made a car for people who own 50 hair dress shops.

^ Couldn't disagree more. There will always be a place for old skool craftsmanship, artistic license, passion, beauty, virtuosity, lightness, good ol' fashioned grunt, drama, warmth (and all of this coupled with a driving experience like few others).

Sure, the big boys are heading off for their hyperbrid war but there will still be many of us who will appreciate the straightforward charm of the Huayra without having to monitor battery depletion levels. I'm no futurephobe - I recognise the significance of the new electrically enhanced generation of sportscars and supercars. Doesn't mean that I've just stopped appreciating greatness of a waning era...

Oh, and your supposed baiting of Artist is ludicrously obvious too by the way...

 

[Deckhook]

The pricing of these option is as vulgar as diamond encrusted watch.

*rolling up sleves*

You have to be f***** kidding me!

First of all do you know Sonus Faber? Do you know what their soundsystems costs outside a car?

Pagani had some nice times when the big boys didn't make supercars? hahaha
What was Ferrari, Maserati and Porsche doing when the Zonda F was around?
The CGT,Enzo and MC12. Which were ALL slower than the record breaking time of the Zonda on the TG track, on the N ring amongst a shit load of other tracks.
Then they went on to make a Corsa and FXX of their cars, in other words non road legal, and the Zonda R ruinated them aswell, and that record still stands.
Then there is the fact that the Zonda F got the highest overall rating in Sport Auto of that time.

Fools said back then when the big boys released their supercars that the zonda (S at that moment) was over and done with,it was a car that was old relased in 99.. but you see where it ended.
And i don't even need to bring the Ciques and the 760s into the equation.

Yet you still sit here and doubt that same company that did all that, and you even go on like a fool to call their cars pure bling without substance when substance has been shown over and over again even in the case of the Huayra.

Now the Huayra is in its first iteration, and some 300hp down on the competition what the hell do you expect?

What i can tell you though is that the Lafer,918 and P1 is what you see today and thats where the story ends.

The Huayra story is just starting, by the middle of it they will have the competition beat, and by the end of it it will have suckers like you drooling over a Huayra ( 1200RS or what the hell it will be by then)

Over 180 orders, and growing, so please with that poser bull shit, Paganis are currently the only modern cars you can buy and make a buck when you sell.

And to those who cry about the option prices, read what martin said, you buy a pagani you allready have the so called big dogs. This is no game for children.
Are they over priced? yes perhaps, but what pagani offers today is a 1 off expericene, no one makes cars like Pagani anymore the value in that can not be undervalued, if they over charge certain things to keep a company like that afloat i say DO IT!!

As it has pushed the big dogs to come out swinging, and also influenced them alot, havent you seen the Zonda esque canopy and rear view mirrors of the Lafer?. Thats Ferrari copying Pagani..
Ferrari the be all and end all of supercars!.

PS
Now if you do not like the way it looks, i urge you to see one in the carbon, if you still do not like it. Fine as tastes are different, but to call them a Poser company with all they have brought to the car world and composite construction words just shows that you are either clue less or on your menustartion cycle.

And for that amazingly retared comment, and for the fact that i had higher hopes for your know how in cars i have to give you a disslike, and i do not do that often.

Peace

^ And they damn well come in Right-Hand Drive! Not even posh Brit uber-snob-patriots McLaren offer their best in RHD. Props to Pagani.

Yes Sonus Faber produce some wonderful system and I do mean gobsmackingly brilliant but lets not get carried away here we are talking about a price tag of $80K in arguably the worse acoustical environment which once you've started the engine and drive down the road all of that wonderful work fine tuning the system has when out the window and it no longer sounds significantly better than any other car system cost $1-2K. It's another example of excessive pricing for the sake of it.

I'm really sorry man but that is one extremely flawed argument.
What hinders someone to buy the top sinus system and putting it in their bathroom?
Does it render the system useless then?
This is in fact the only car sound system they make it's totally bespoke an made out
Of carbon fibre, the lightest and possibly best sounding system in any car ever probably.
Now the fact that it sits in a car and not in a concert hall does not take away from its value.
By that logic all high end systems like b&o, burmeister and such a waste of money.
But that is not the case as they are very much better than their standard counter parts.
Now is a car the best place to enjoy sound for a audiophile?
Surely not!

Re-read what I wrote, I am said that once the engine in on and you are driving down the road all this work of fine tuning has gone out the window, we aren't talking about a whisper quiet luxury super saloon this thing you hear the engine, hear those turbos spooling up, the wide tyres running on the Tarmac, etc. Sitting still with the engine off I bet its amazing as is the case with all their home equipment and probably better than all others but you don't buy a car like this to do that now do you.

Oh and we aren't talking about spending $500-$1k here like your average B&O or Bose upgrade, this costs $80k and IMO not all upgrades are worth their asking price, Audi's Bose in the A6/7 isn't even as good as their stock system and its £5k B&O setup I found lacked bass plus Porsche's Burmeister in the Cayenne offers little over the cheaper Bose setup once on the go.

fair pricing..close this thread

To be honest it is fair because of their business model. They only develop a new car every 5-10 years meaning that every customer they get, is unlikely to walk through the showroom until a 5-10 years later. Pagani don't have the luxury of Porsche where a GT2 customer is likely to get a Cayenne one or two years later or encourage a cousin to pick up a Boxster. Therefore Pagani needs to squeeze as much blood as they can out of each customer.

Its a top notch system, fitted to maybe the most useless place ever..

Does not take away from the fact that its top notch.

PS
I would never buy it though, ile be happy with the turbo spooling up

 

[Sayyaaf]

I will buy it. Can't spool the turbos all day long

I honestly thought I had got across the point it was a top notch system???

PS

Actually my point, why go to the bother of developing such a system and then putting such a price tag when it's benefits will be all but lost when driven?

When I use to sell and fit sound systems we did everything possible to deaden the acoustics and quieten the car which goes against everything sacred with a supercar.

 

[LaArtist]

^ Why ? well its cause they can, and the car represents what is the top of everything, and that had to apply to the sound system as well..

More useless things has been fitted to cars, and other products..

If you have the sense you don't buy those options.

If you have stupid money and just want to have everything nice, go ahead..

Simple

 

[LaArtist]

On 2nd thought who the F does not want this in their life?

I would just sit in it and listen to music in the garage..
