I love the way that Pagani seems to go about their press launches. Basically just, "Here's the keys, mountain pass is that way." The car speaks for itself, no silly gimmicks needed.

A proper 3 pedal layout in a super car in 2024? God bless you Mr. Pagani. What a masterpiece of a machine

[wonderbubble]

The muted color choices, dirt on the front intake, the scuffs on the pedals, primarily analog gauges and interfaces, pure engine power, the lack of electronic aides that let you get sketchy with it if you aren't careful, and the fact that not only did they make a manual in the year of our Lord 2024, but they went so far as to make it a dogbox to maximize those 2<->3 shifts. Every single piece of it from concept to reality just tells with the utmost professional authority that it is a driver's car to the absolute fullest.

What a beautiful love-letter to automotive engineering, and proper driving.

V12 with a manual, analogue gauges, no infotainment screen bs, interior that looks like a modern steampunk with visible mechanical linkages. Its absolute perfection!
Now if only if I had 6 million dollars 😅

Breath of fresh air considering the direction so many other supercars are going. A hold-out during the EV era. Love it. Purity.

[MohdSaud-bztw]

It is soo refreshing to see a true automotive design in this day and age...

[ALMXDP]

It looks more organic than prior models. It doesn’t pull at my heart strings as much, but I can certainly appreciate the time and craftsmanship behind it.

[ArthurZakaryan]

There are few people in the automotive world like Horacio Pagani, I'm talking less than half a dozen people. The ones that immediately come to mind are Gordon Murray and Christian Von Koenigsegg and if given the decision between any of Pagani's masterpieces and his top counterparts, I'd die a happy man after experiencing either of those options but the geek in me who obsesses over the tiniest of details that make absolutely no difference to the cars driving characteristics makes me want this Utopia more than a GM special or a Koenigsegg. An absolute masterpiece and I couldn't stress that word any higher.

Finally, proper cars are back! A manual, analogue gauges, no screens, only 1200kg which is unheard of today, no hybrid/electricity, this is just a drivers dream car.

[SupraSav]

Pagani is perfecting the formula. The interior is classy and not overdone. It's a pleasure to look at, and I am sure to be in as well.

[lindasipho]

This car has an almost retro look, not like other supercars that look like they were designed by AI. Absolutely beautiful 🔥🔥🔥

[brightchavalala]

Pagani really went full steampunk aesthetic with the interior

[nathanwright]

That rear 3/4 view is as a good as any car I've ever seen. Just stunning.

[FranciscoA-vgri]

Mr. Pagani is a dreamer he knows the formula in how to bring his dream cars into reality. Thank you sir well done.

[JamesHiscox]

It’s basically a Group C road car, built with 2024 tech, and the most exquisite interior of all time.

[carza]

Fantastic review, the way you describe the car made me feel (almost) like I was driving the car. One of the best videos I have seen this year. Superb!

[ELXABER]

Thanks for the headphone warning, almost forgot to turn it up. Horacio, still building artwork masterpieces and calling them cars. I'd love to work for them as I can't stand what most are doing to automobile design today with haptic buttons, plastic everything, and digital screens.

[KingOfBattle]

I love this design so much. Especially the interior. I can finally see a new car without a tablet slapped in the middle of the car. I can only hope we get that on a regular car!

[vancityguy]

“Keep it simple” beautifully applies here.

[sassi.selene]

It's definitely one of the standout videos I've watched this year. Your review is brilliant!!
