CGT vS Pagani Zonda Nurburgring Ring

Both great cars. The Murcielago also recently ran a 7.43 by same magazine, and the ZOnda tied the Gallardo around Hockenheim.

Have you ever seen one upclose? I saw one, and the quality is amazing. Fantastic car.

Zonda is cool, but I'd rather have a CGT any day.

The rear of a Zonda is just plain weird looking, and to make matters worse, the engine is Mercedes-- BOO!!!

I saw one not long ago at the Sunset Plaza down in LA. I agree with Hamann, it is kind of goofy looking. There just seems to be too much going on at the same time with the car's design. For the price I'd definitely go for the CGT.

And they go around claiming they can top 220mph+ but when EVO took one to the Autobahn it couldnt break 198mph with Andy Wallace driving

My good friend, who actually built my Porsches, and did my Lambo stuff, is working on the EPA'ing of the Koenigsegg as we speak.

Score 68 out of 70 is the highest ever.

The almost perfect supercar! I doubt anyone will come near.

However I read in EVO (UK) that MB claims the SLR will be faster (yeah right!) and in rain the CGT has no chance (could believe that.)
