Pagani has announced the 2007 Pagani Roadster F, a new addition to the Zonda family. Hand built by Pagani in a limited run of 25, the $650,000 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.

The light and rigid body is 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.
“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 Aluminum,” the company says.
“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.”
“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.”
