Pagani
Automobili is proud to unveil the Roadster F, a new jewel in
the Zonda family: fast open top motoring at its best. Hand
built by Pagani in a limited run of 25, the Roadster F
offers the outstanding driveability and performance of the F
Coupè, enhanced by the pleasure of driving with a gentle
breeze in your hair.
Thanks to an original roof made out of carbon fibre and
cloth (removable in a few seconds) and due to the use of
carbon fabrics for the construction of the central chassis,
bodywork and interior, it was possible to maintain the dry
weight of 1230kg, which translates in a weight/power ratio
of 1,89kg/hp for the Clubsport version.
Now think about this; a light and rigid vehicle body, pushed
by the mighty 7.3 Litre Mercedes-AMG V12 engine, with a
power of 650hp and a torque of 780Nm. The 0 – 200kph time
takes just 9.8 seconds and a few instants later you exceed
the 300kph mark... all topless. The Roadster F travels along
the boundary where beauty and power merge together forming
something special; it’s sinuous and aerodynamically shaped
bodywork gets its prominence from sharp edges and elegant
lines, which show at first glance its extraordinary
potential.
From the cockpit you enjoy a magnificent view, unusual for a
supercar. With your hands on the steering wheel you enjoy an
environment that far exceeds most expectations, with a
mixture of carbon fibre, soft leather and polished Aluminium
lighting up your senses. The precious instrument cluster
looks like the handiwork of a watchmaker. It reveals the
pure-breed of an Italian GT car: thanks to its personality,
mixing sensuality, aggressiveness and magnetic beauty, you
can easily imagine it driving along the sea front in Monte
Carlo or screaming down a straight at Le Mans. All this,
supported by handling that is unbelievably efficient and
sincere and that monitors constantly what is happening to
every single wheel; creating the feeling of the power behind
you and the precise response in front.
The Roadster F is not a racecar; it is rather a jewel
handcrafted in Italy, a whirl of emotions, a masterpiece for
the connoisseur who cares to drive fast. Very fast. Like the
heart beating within its soul. The fastest, most exclusive,
most powerful and most expensive Roadster in the world.
