"The needle on the analog dial tells you where you are".  What an amazing concept!  I wonder who thought of it?

The tires are worn.  The shocks are shot.  The steering is wobbly.  But the engine still runs fine.

I like classic car styling. I like classic car dash display. No screens please! A a real key lockwd ignition switch instead of the burglars favorite: a smart key lock. Make the burglar use a locksmith key making tool for 15 minutes to get in. That ought to discourage him into looking for an easier mark.

 

Another peeve is smart garage door opener (also a burglar favorite to hack).

😁 Yep, Pagani cars are a work of art, and art requires fancy dials, not a digital representation on a display.

Even the engine and suspension components you can't see are beautifully designed with aesthetics in mind, not just functionality. 

Pagani have gone somewhat old school with this car, despite the complex electronics, with the manual transmission option. Although when spending that much I think I'd want a sophisticated automatic transmission and flappy paddles. 😄

Now: press which knob? How come it's talking to my phone... What media?...Turns off audio center.

That is one UGLY car, IMHO.

Accent should be on the middle syllable:

U to pia.

Do you like this one better, Bill? It's only 2000bhp so might not be enough for you. 😁

Hahaha, no: since Pagani is Italian (and the founder/head designer, Horacio Pagani, is from Argentina), it should be Utopia. Somehow, I never liked his designs, but I confess I've never seen one except in photos and videos.

Looking back at my reply, sounds like Hermione Granger: "it's LeviOsa, not LevioSA😂
