I can see a lot of Zonda in the design, with the very forward cabin. Lovely car, great video.
@fastdays_16 жыл бұрын
Actually Horacio designed the Zonda inspired by Group C cars hence that shape with forward cabin and straight side lines
@alexmartinez2804 жыл бұрын
Pagani built the Zonda to look like a Group C car while this XJR-15 IS a Group C car. Today the Pagani is twice the price. A better road car, yes. A better car, iMO no. Rarity? 1:50 so half the production of Zonda easily. With that said I’d have a Zonda F in a heartbeat and an XJR-15 is a millisecond.

What a beautiful car!!! If it's by the same designer as the F1, my personal opinion is that this is the better looking car (and I absolutely love the McLaren F1!) The owner is a proper racing car nut, he is THE perfect owner for a car like this. I've just seen another KZbin clip where one of these awesome cars is up for sale, the previous owner (who I think had bought the car from new) had NEVER even driven it!!! The car had around 60km on the clock!!! How could you own such an incredible car and never even drive it??? It's great to see that this car is properly driven and loved (I loved what he said about the livery, "it's my car and I'll pick how it looks!" Spot on!)

My first memory of this car was when I was 6, watching Clarkson's 'Most outrageous supercar video...... ever'. He was less than complimentary about it. Probably didn't help it was raining when they shot the piece but the engine being mounted so high certainly didn't help either. I'll never be able to buy a XJR9 so this is probably the closest one could get to it. Not that this is very cheap either! 😂. Like the Mclaren F1, this is probably one of the last cars you could drive to the track, race, win and then drive back home with the trophy in the passenger seat.
