The unique Pagani Zonda prototype 'La Nonna' celebrated by the manufacturer

The pivotal car of the Pagani's Zonda success is a testing mule having 1,000,000 km on its odometer that as it aged became more well known as “La Nonna”, meaning The Grandmother. 

It is the second Pagani prototype and began life in 1998 as a C12 which developed a rather modest 394 horsepower. Unlike other automakers, Pagani is a bespoke manufacturer that could simply not afford to churn out millions of Euros worth of Zondas, so instead it continued to work with one example that was upgraded to match the specifications of new models.
