Pagani unveiled its new supercar, the Huayra, to the media at the Pasadena Art Center Colleage of Design this past week. The car was initially introduced to a world-wide audience at the Geneva Motor Show in March, but this is the first time the car has been seen on North American soil. In fact, this is the first time Pagani has officially brought any car to the United States despite producing its first supercar, the Zonda, for more for than a decade. Company founder Horacio Pagani said that the reason his company is only now beginning to sell cars in North America isn't for lack of potential customers. According to Pagani, there was actually quite a bit of interest in the car, but unlike other supercar makers, he is in no rush to expand too quickly.

"At the time, the production capacity was not enough to fulfill all the demand an inquiries that we got from our worldwide customers," he told us through his Italian translater. "The customers for these very special high end cars are very sophisticated, and when they come to Pagani they have to get not just a supercar but super attention and service together with the car. It's not easy to properly look after each of them, so this is why, step-by-step, we are developing new markets just to make sure that every new customer coming into the Pagani family is very well looked after and pampered by our staff and to meet every request."

Unfortunately, that attention to detail and customer service means that U.S. buyers will still have to wait a little longer before getting their cars. Horacio says that current customers need to be attended to before orders from new markets can be handled. "Pagani plans to enter the U.S. market only at the end of the 2012," he told us. "We already have a huge demand for the car from our existing market, which is outside North America. We have to allow for some time for Pagani to fulfill the demand of the existing customer, and then start with our new ones."

Oficialmente, a Pagani levou pela primeira vez um carro ao outro lado do Atlântico para apresentá-lo.
Ao que parece, o facto de a marca não ter ainda chegado oficialmente ao outro lado, não se deve a uma falta de interesse, mas sim à "ausência" de pressa em expandir a marca.
A data de entrega dos primeiros Huayras deverá corresponder à "recta final" de 2012.
 
E aparentemente, pode ainda não ser desta que a Pagani chega aos EUA.
Surgiu um obstáculo na homologação do Huayra nos EUA, que pode obrigar a gastar mais uns milhões no desenvolvimento de novos airbags

EDIT: fica a confirmação de o Huayra ter falhado a homologação

New supercar from artisan automaker Horacio Pagani won't get a pass from the DOT

The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) will not homologate the Pagani Huayra for the American market.
According to a report by Bloomberg, Pagani will not receive an exemption on grounds of financial hardship, as the specialty marque had hoped for, with regard to its lack of an airbag for the car.
Horacio Pagani, the artisan automaker and creator of Pagani, had hoped the exemption would be granted as other low-volume car makers such as Tesla and Lamborghini have received. According to the report, the small marque says developing an air bag system for the car would cost it €4 million ($5.7 million), something its low-volume and tight margins would not allow.
15 units a year of the Huayra were slated for the American market and the car had been built with sales in the United States in mind.
Said Horacio Pagani earlier this year when announcing the model would be sold there:
"This automobile is the result of five years of dedicated effort from the Pagani team and we see this [U.S. market entry] as an unprecedented opportunity to continue expanding our vision of the future for the supercar industry."
Pagani had hoped to build a dealer network in the U.S. to sell those 15 units a year. But the previous Pagani model, the Zonda, was not homologated for the United States either and was not sold there.

É com este tipo de automóveis que a industria automovel avança e ultrapassa barreiras...
É mais uma pedrada no charco em termos de design, dinamica e potencia...
Se tivesse 1 milhão de euros para comprar um superdesportivo... seria uma hipotese a considerar...
A exclusividade tem um preço...
 
Gosto muito, apesar do carro sofrer por ter saído após o Zonda, um pouco como o Diablo por ter saído depois do Countach, a nível de opiniões estéticas. O Zonda para mim é o equivalente ao Countach nos tempos modernos.
Não acho o interior nada azeiteiro, é preciso ter muito bom gosto para fazer aquele caos estético funcionar. No meu entender os interiores dos Pagani tal como os dos Spyker são das melhores reinterpretações modernas do estilo luxuoso clássico. Acho os Pagani muito mais cheios de alma que os Lamborghini, por exemplo, aliás, acho que a Pagani representa um pouco a velha aura que a Lamborghini perdeu aquando comprada pelos alemães. (prefiro a Lamborghini assim que morta, no entanto)

Pagani has always occupied a special place in the world of hypercars, and its latest creation,the new Huarya, is no exception. Motor Trend's editor-in-chief Angus MacKenzie recently had the chance to take the Huarya for a quick spin and share the experience on Youtube.The carbonfibre-bodied Italian model comes with a German heart as power is provided by a mid-mounted 6.0-liter twin turbocharged V12 delivering approximately 700 horses and 664 lb-ft of torque in standard trim, and 730HP and 811 lb-ft of torque in Sport tune.
