Pagani Zonda F unveiled ahead of Geneva
In comparison to its F Coupè, Pagani describes the Zonda F roadster as “enhanced by the pleasure of driving with a gentle breeze in your hair.” We imagine the velocities you’ll reach thanks to its Mercedes AMG-derived 7.3L V12 engine will produce something more dramatic than a gentle breeze in your hair. You may not have any hair left at all after reaching its top speed of 214 mph with the top down.
Self-proclaimed as the most expensive roadster in the world (though no price is given), the Zonda F will no doubt liberate hundreds of thousands of dollars from your trust fund. We think sinking into financial insecurity is worth it for a one-way ticket to 62 mph in 3.6 seconds and the symphonic sound of 12 cylinders producing 650 hp and 575 ft-lbs. of torque behind your head. No?
Only 25 will be produced and I've got dibs on the first four, so good luck.
[Thanks Noah for the tip!]

Very hard to keep a car this beautiful under wraps.
This is a proper supercar.
Lamborghini, take notes.

The perfect supercar. Especially in roadster form it's irresistable. Too bad they'll only make 25 of these.

This is one awesome looking supercar. Would love to see more pictures of it. The only thing is...how are those (flimsy-looking) side mirrors going to stay in place when going 214 mph down the highway?! Minor detail?

I hope that all these cars such as the Zonda F will have some restrictions on speed when on U.S. highways. And all 25 of you who plan to take these cars on the road remember the Ferrari that the other day broke in two an a California highway after hitting a bump in the pavement.

Maybe the mirrors retract at speed? still looks very sleek.

Well it's sleek and all, but it reminds me a little too much of the batmobile. Do you have to wear tights and a mask when you drive it?

"Baddest" looking car ever made.Too bad its top speed is only 214. With cars hitting upwards of 250 its gotta a "lil" ways to go b4 it becomes the baddest car ever. 2 questions though, what are those cup holder looking holes in the seat? They made this baby so light how is it gonna stay on the road?

Jerome-
those cupholder things might be the a/c vents but they shouldn't stick up off of the dash if that's the case
anyway that's my best guess...

When combined with the SLR McClaren, u actually can see the overwhelming power of Mercedes-Benz. At least in the supercar category.

Nice car yes. The "Baddest Car"? Not a chance when compared to the new Bugatti Veyron 16.4 that was at the LA Auto Show. This Bad Boy has 16 Cylinders, 1001 HP, can go from 0-60 in 2.5 seconds, past the 200 mph mark in around 14 seconds, and tops off around 253 mph.
