Pagani Zonda Tricolore in Geneva
The Pagani Zonda Tricolore was created as a tribute to the Italian National Aerobatic Team known as Frecce Tricolori (meaning Tricolour Arrows in Italian). The team is celebrating its 50th anniversary and so Pagani saw it fit to create this once-off model in its honour.
The Zonda Tricolore is based on the Cinque but features a tub made from a carbon fibre/ titanium wire weave combination and front LED lights that look like the tail fin of an airplane. To refresh your memory, the "standard" Cinque has an AMG-sourced engine making 499kW (678 PS / 669 hp) and 780Nm (575 lb-ft).
The one fortunate customer whose garage receives the Zonda Tricolore will have to fork out €1.3 million (US$1.76 million) for the privilege.
Zonda Tricolore
On the occasion of the celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the "Frecce Tricolori", Pagani Automobili created the Zonda Tricolore as a tribute to the National Aerobatic Team.
In 2010 the aer obatic season of the Frecce Tricolori comes to its 50th anniversary, wich will be celebrated on 11th and 12th September at Rivolto Airport (info: www.aeronautica.difesa.it).
The Frecce Tricolori (Italian, literally Tricolour Arrows), officially known as the 313th Aerobatic Training Squadron is the demonstration team of the Italian Air Force, based at Rivolto Air Force Base, in the north-eastern Italian region of Friuli Venezia-Giulia, province of Udine. They were formed in 1961 as an Air Force team, replacing previous teams that had been sponsor ed
by various commands by the end of the 1920s.
The team flies the Aermacchi MB-339-A/PAN, a two-seat aircraft capable of 898 km/h at sea level, with nine aircraft and a solo (the highest number of aircraft of any aerobatic team in the world).
The Frecce Tricolori belong to the legacy of the entir e Italian community.
