Pagani Zonda C12-S

The Pagani Zonda C12-S was the second version of the Zonda, the Italian mid-engine supercar that Pagani introduced at Geneva in 1999. Where the first Zonda used a 6.0 litre Mercedes-Benz M120 V12, the C12-S took a modified M120 enlarged to 7,010 cc and tuned by Mercedes-AMG, rated at 550 PS, and paired it with a newly developed CIMA six-speed manual gearbox to cope with the output. Wikipedia gives 3.7 seconds to 100 km/h, 7.0 seconds to 161 km/h and a top speed of 335 km/h. Supercar Nostalgia dates the start of production to soon after the Geneva show of March 2000 and counts 15 cars built before the 7.3 litre Zonda S replaced it in March 2002. Some sources call this car simply the Zonda S, which is why it is kept apart from the later 7.3 litre car.
