The Pagani Huayra Codalunga Loses Its Roof and Adds a Manual
Nameplates never die at Pagani. We're fully in the era of the Utopia, the brand's third model now, but the Huayra still has some life left in it. On Tuesday, Pagani debuted the Huayra Codalunga Speedster, an extremely limited, manual-transmission hypercar that pays tribute to 1960s prototype race cars. Unsurprisingly, it's gorgeous. Pagani debuted a Huayra Codalunga coupe a couple of years ago and built five examples. This time, it's building 10, homologated worldwide, and it plans to begin customer deliveries next year. "The Huayra Codalunga Speedster is a tribute to those who imagine their sports car as an icon of lightness and momentum, shaped by essential lines that transcend time with ease," says Horacio Pagani in a statement. Photo by: Pagani The name Codalunga translates to long-tail in English. It's a tribute to the long-tail sports prototype race cars of the 1960s, whose longer bodywork attempted to improve top speed at tracks like Le Mans. Think cars like the Porsche 908 LH, Alfa Romeo Tipo 33/2, Alpine A220. Pagani's Codalunga is 193.3 inches long—over 11 inches longer than a "standard" Huayra coupe. Unlike most Huayra models and even the previous Codalunga coupe, the Speedster is available with a choice of transmissions—seven-speed manual or sequential. Pagani only made its first manual Huayra last year, the Epitome . Here, the transmission is paired with Pagani's exclusive Mercedes-AMG twin-turbo V-12. Displacing 6.0 liters, it makes the same 864 horsepower and 811 pound-feet of torque as it does in the Utopia. Somewhat surprisingly, this Huayra Codalunga Speedster doesn't have much exposed carbon-fiber trim. That fits in with its 1960s aesthetics. Inside, the car debuts a new interior trim that features an embroidery inspired by Pagani's signature quad-exhaust arrangement. The steering wheel and shifter also feature mahogany inserts, which really help complete the mid-century vibe. Photo by: Pagani Photo by: Pagani The Codalunga Speedster is a creation of Pagani's Grandi Complicazioni department, which develops one-offs and limited models like this. For when your "regular" Pagani isn't quite rare enough, these are the folks you call. We've reached out to Pagani to confirm if all 10 examples are spoken for, but typically, by the time the public sees a car like this, it is long since sold out. Understandably so.

New Pagani Alert! It's the manual, V12-engined Huayra Codalunga Speedster
New Pagani Alert! It's the manual, V12-engined Huayra Codalunga Speedster For when you need to hear your AMG V12 more clearly Skip 22 photos in the image carousel and continue reading Turn on Javascript to see all the available pictures. 1 / 22 This is the Pagani Huayra Codalunga Speedster, and like its hard-topped sibling, it is a car that wears its appreciation to classic racing cars with pride. It's also a bit bonkers, carries a very modern V12, and is out of reach for almost everyone on planet Earth. So, you're interested, right? Advertisement - Page continues below 'The Huayra Codalunga Speedster is a tribute to those who imagine their sports car as an icon of lightness and momentum, shaped by essential lines that transcend time with ease,' said big boss Horacio Pagani. Before we get to those lines, a note on what powers them. Yes, it's a Huayra underneath, but we're told this Codalunga Speedster features an 'entirely new' monocoque, inside which lurks the very dark heart of a 6.0-litre V12. Built, as ever, by AMG especially for Pagani, this 6.0-litre monster gets a pair of turbochargers and a sprinkling of madness to deliver 852bhp and 811lb ft of torque to the rear wheels. That's a little more than the Codalunga coupe, and the same as the Utopia. That's matched to your choice of a seven-speed gearbox, in either automated manual guise, or full manual. Keeping it all in check are 'Pagani by Brembo' stoppers: 410mm discs/six-pots on the front, 390mm discs/four-pots on the back. There are adaptive dampers, variable-rate springs, and a dandy set of 20/21in front/rear alloys. Advertisement - Page continues below Speaking of dandy… yeesh. The lines echo the coupe's – so a long, flowing and glorious tail harking back to sports prototypes from the Fifties and Sixties – only here the Speedster does without its sibling's gullwing doors. Which in turn gives this convertible a smoother, cleaner and more 'continuous' roofline. That removable hardtop features a polycarbonate transparent section too when up, and when down? Acres of sky, of course. There's a new roll bar betwixt roof and long tail, that, says Pagani, creates a 'cascading effect through the central tunnel, gear lever and dashboard'. Speaking of the dash, it's full-on 1960s in here – not in tech, but in feel. There are 'hammered and hand-stitched' leathers, wood on the steering wheel and gearlever for full ye olde worlde racing vibes, and an 'exclusive' fabric developed specially for this Speedster.

First, the Imola, named for the famous Italian racetrack and created as a test bed for subsystems and engineering concepts to employ in future Pagani models. With such low production volumes and the commercial need to create rare batches to please clients, Pagani has produced engineering 'pull-forwards' like the Zonda R that informed the Huayra, and the Huayra R track car and Huayra BC that pulled forward materials and suspension design for the third-generation Pagani, the Utopia. Only five editions of the Imola will be built, guaranteeing its collectability. Mercedes-AMG's V12 delivers 827 horsepower. The engine also spools up 811 lb.-ft. of torque (1,100 ... More Nm in the European measure). Power is delivered through Pagani's unique development of an Xtrac 7-speed semi-auto gearbox.

That means without oil and fuel, Imola tips the scales at 2,748 lb. (1,246 kilos), thanks to its composite chassis. Horacio Pagani started working with composites when employed at Lamborghini more than three decades ago, and eventually established his own composites manufacturing company which provides lightweight components to the automotive and aerospace industries, and also defense industry. Pagani composite is as advanced as any in the world. Pagani Imola interior. Even the Acquarello Light paintwork is ultra-light weight, shaving 11 lbs. off the car. With fuel and oil onboard, perhaps add 150 pounds. But Imola is still well under 3000 pounds, comparable or superior to other track-day exotic specials, even with the weight of a semi-auto gearbox. Lower weight helps not just with acceleration and top speed, but most importantly for a track car, with cornering turn-in precision. A lighter car can simply change direction with greater ease. Pagani Imola features an electronically controlled and fully interconnected system of active dampers ... More (shock absorbers for those of us in the U.S.). Front suspension ride height can be adjusted for driving conditions working through a central black box, the 'super brain' that assimilates data from all other related black boxes controlling the engine, differential and gearshift functions.

World's First Manual Pagani Huayra Roadster Worth $6.9M
⚡️ Read the full article on Motorious In a world where hypercars are already engineering marvels, one enthusiast has pushed boundaries further—commissioning the world's only manual Pagani Huayra Roadster, a bespoke $6.9 million masterpiece. Automotive YouTuber Emelia Hartford and her friend Vince recently took delivery of this singular creation, experiencing firsthand the unparalleled craftsmanship and raw performance that make it one of the most unique cars ever built. Finished in striking blue carbon fiber, this Huayra Roadster stands out not only for its aesthetics but for its driving engagement, featuring a seven-speed gated manual gearbox—an unprecedented feature in the Huayra lineup. Typically, Pagani's Huayra Roadster comes equipped with a seven-speed automated manual transmission. However, Vince, the car's owner, envisioned a more visceral experience, opting for a dog-leg manual shifter with exposed mechanical linkages. The result is a throwback to classic race cars, where first gear sits in a lower-left position, allowing quicker shifts between second and third. Powering this custom Huayra is a twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter AMG V12, producing around 754 horsepower. The exhaust system, a lightweight titanium unit with four centrally positioned tips, ensures an aggressive soundtrack that drowns out nearly everything in its vicinity. The hypercar's advanced aerodynamics feature four independently controlled flaps, adjusting for optimal downforce and stability. Beyond performance, this Huayra Roadster is a work of art, from its handcrafted interior with bespoke touches to its carbo-titanium chassis, which makes it lighter and stiffer than the coupe. Every inch of the car reflects Pagani's philosophy of merging art and engineering. As Hartford took the passenger seat for the car's maiden drive, she was left nearly speechless. 'Oh, my God!' she exclaimed, capturing the essence of the experience in just three words. With only 100 Huayra Roadsters produced and infinite customization options, this one-of-a-kind manual build sets a new benchmark for exclusivity. Vince, now the proud owner of the world's first manual Huayra Roadster, has all the time in the world to uncover its secrets—one perfectly executed shift at a time.
