Pagani Zonda C12 vs. Saleen S7


Zonda

Recommended Posts

these two cars are very similiar but also very different. Same weight, similiar specifications, V-12 vs. V-8...

 

It almost all comes down to looks.... which wins?

 

My bet is for the Zonda.... you have the great aggressive from lights:

The great taillights:

and of course, the jet-like exhaust cluster...

Pagani hands down.

 

IMO its much better looking and the C12S should be very close to the Saleen performance wise. Are there any concrete performance stats on the saleen yet? The Saleen just seems over styled. Too many scoops, louvres, bumps etc... On the other hand the Pagani is cleaner looking and I love the exhausts.

The S7 is a race car first and foremost. Every scoop and bump has a function, like the ones on the CLK GTR and 911 GT1.

 

The Pagoni is a rich man's plaything, an exotic to show off in, not to actually perform. Almost none of them will be used to anywhere near their potential, and I would doubt that they even could. The Saleen already proved itself at Sebring, and should have a good racing career ahead of it.

lol... sory for being so... obsessive but IT'S SO GREAT!!!

 

about the Ford -- it looks to...well.. fakey... the GT90 is a great lookin' Ford I think, but the S7 looks like saleen put too much tuned mustang into it, but... you gotta love those taillights on the S7.

 

The Zonda taillights aren' the best thing in the world, I have to admit....

When you get right done to it, though, the Saleen, the GT 90, and the GT 40 really look nothing at all like each other. Neither of the Fords use all the fins, scoops, etc. that the Saleen uses. Yeah, the Saleen looks like the Saleen Mustangs, but that's expected. Brand recognition. It doesn't look anything at all like any Mustang. Just the parts that Saleen added to them.

 

Ford has made some absolutely gorgeous cars, some good looking cars, and some rather ugly cars, but the Saleen S7 looks like none of them.
