Horatio Pagani Seal of Approval

[texas mongrel]

Quote from an interview with Horatio Pagani in the August edition of 'Automobile';

"i was the first to order it in Europe. In my view, the designer who created that car has very good little hands. I think it's one of the most beautiful supercars of the last 20 years, one of the most original of the last 20 years. Perhaps the engine is a bit on the small side."

OK, so he wanted a V-8 too.....

So is he getting one? And that's a major feather in the hat for Ford to get those kind of words from that man! The Zonda is one of my all time bucket list cars.

they Hyura is one of the most beautiful cars on the planet and the attention to detail on that car is on a level all on its own, for Horatio to complement the design of the NGT speaks volumes.

At the Quail last year, he told me, through a translator, that he liked my Z8. I was flattered.

I found the 918 & Porsche comments very interesting.

Can someone explain to this simpleton what the "small hands" quote mean in Italian?

 

[vyprgt2]

Interesting comments for sure.

Can't go wrong with the Ford GT and McLaren P1!

Think prostate exam.

Ouch Dr Frank! Those Italians have a way with words!

While it's great to see the car owned by such iconic car guys I wonder if this car gets any real mileage or is just used for testing/benchmarking.

Of course the statement is kind of ennobling Fords achievements with the car, so it is valuable to Ford.

I'm sure he compares them against his car overalll. But if he were purchasing just to benchmark, the public wouldn't know about it.
