The Pagani Huayra, which is named after a wind god, first became public in January of 2011 during an online press release, and subsequently, the official world debut took place in February of that same year at the Pirelli headquarters in Milan, Italy. This particular example shown here is a 2014 Pagani Huayra Coupè (ZA9H11RAYYSF76044), 1 of approximately 100 total examples produced for the entire world (not counting prototypes/crash test cars). This particular Huayra is finished with ‘Bianco Benny’ exterior paint with red carbon accents over a red leather interior with white stitching. The Huayra was of course designed by the companies founder, Horacio Pagani, who builds his cars not only to achieve high performance and exclusivity, but also a level of class and luxury that simply can’t be compared to many other cars in the world. One notable feature of the Huayra is the presence of advanced active aerodynamics that include four independently operating flaps located on the front and rear of the vehicle that raise and lower depending on situations such as speed, acceleration, steering angle, and throttle position. From 2012-2018 Pagani planned to produce only 100 total examples of the Pagani Huayra making this not only one of the most beautiful cars in the world, but also one of the rarest. Since the Huayra’s release, the platform since been updated and enhanced through several through variants that include the Huayra Roadster, the Huayra BC, the BC Roadster, the Imola, the Huayra R, the Codalunga, the Tricolore, the Roadster HP, amongst other variants and one-offs as well. This example is said to be 1 of just 19 standard Huayra examples built for right-hand drive configuration, and is believed to be located in the United Kingdom!
