The model car in the photos is a faithful replica of the legendary Pagani Zonda Cinque, built in a scale of 1/18 by Almost Real. The Pagani Zonda, with its first generation produced from 1999 to 2011, is a masterpiece of Italian engineering. Designed by the Argentine designer Horacio Pagani, the Zonda became known for its extraordinary performance and unique design. The limited edition version, the Pagani Zonda Cinque, is restricted to only five street cars worldwide and represents the final chapter of the Zonda era before the Huayra took over.
This 1/18 scale replica by Almost Real is made from high-quality diecast material, ensuring not only a realistic look but also remarkable stability of the model. What catches the eye immediately are the meticulously replicated details, starting from the distinctive front end with the typical quad headlights to the aero parts perfectly molded to match the original form. Also visible are the red accents on the wheels, which come from the APP wheel model. The striking paint job of the model consists of an elegant mix of white and carbon colors, complemented by red accents, providing a detailed and authentic appearance.
The Pagani Zonda Cinque is powered by a Mercedes-AMG V12 engine delivering 678 horsepower and a maximum torque of 780 Nm (575 lb-ft). This engine enables the Zonda Cinque to accelerate from zero to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 3.4 seconds and achieve a top speed of over 350 km/h (217 mph). The car also features an exceptional suspension system specially tuned for road use but offering the performance of a race car. The original design and technical equipment were developed by engineers Olivier Lauger and Gianni Delaini. Numerous aerodynamic components on the car are from the tuning house Pagani Automobili, founded by Horacio Pagani in 1992.
