Yes, Pagani Has Actually Made Yet Another One-Off Zonda
I’ve been trying to think of things which are more resilient than the life-span of the Pagani Zonda. Madonna’s singing career comes to mind, or maybe that residue that gets stuck to the bottom of your cereal bowl after you’ve had Weetabix. You see, the Zonda has been around in one form or another for 17 years now, and was actually replaced four years ago by the Huayra. But even after Zonda production officially ended, we’ve had a steady stream of one-off specials. And now there’s another one: the Zonda MD.
Still, unlike Madonna’s singing career or those Weetabix leftovers that frequently blight your crockery, few will complain about the Zonda sticking around, and besides - with the Huayra’s 100-unit run sold out, commissioning a one-off Zonda seems like a decent way to get hold of a Pagani, assuming you’re rich enough. What’s more, this new ‘MD’ model looks particularly stunning.
The carbonfibre body is barely covered by a thin layer of blue paint, showing off all the glorious weaves underneath. It looks similar to the Zonda 760 thanks to its roof scoop and massive rear wing, and us running the same 7.3-litre AMG-sourced V12, kicking out 750bhp assuming there are no internal changes.
Other than that, and the fact the ‘MD’ name comes from the owner’s initials (it’s nothing doctor-related, in case you were wondering), details are rather thin on the ground. We’ve no idea exactly how much it cost to commission, but what we’re looking at here is almost certainly several million dollars worth of car.
So, if you have lots and lots of money, make sure you give Horatio Pagani a call - clearly he’s still willing to knock together a Zonda or two. For us normal folk, we’ll have to remain content with just guessing how many more of these one-off Zondas there’ll be.
Place your bets…

Can someone explain to me what the heck a “Weetabix” is? Also, I thought the Zonda was already dead!
It is a cereal that’s kinda like mini wheats just without the frosting

I don’t want the Zonda to die!

Ten years later: “here we have the pagani zonda fm. Now, I promise this is the last one. ;-)
For god’s sake, the Zonda is becoming more of a shrine than anything now, Pagani is gonna make these in 2030 before we know it
They make so many “one-off” cars that’d you’d be more special if you had an older original production car.
