What's in our Car Town garage today? (January 26, 2014)

What's in our Car Town garage today?

2012 Pagani Zonda 760 RS

Even though the Huayra served as the replacement to the decade-old Pagani Zonda, the Modena-based automaker is more than welcome for anyone who wants a Zonda, especially when a certain Zonda has to be fast, road-legal, and one-of-a-kind. The one-off 760 RS pretty much sums about it because while it was specially requested by a certain wealthy car enthusiast, it's the most powerful road-going Zonda ever made thanks to the AMG-developed V12 engine developing over 760PS of power output, more than the limited-to-5 Cinque model.

2010 Lotus Evora

When the Evora made a debut at the 2008 Paris Motor Show, the British sports car maker famed for Elise and Exige did made a different curve on the road because while it may not be as light as the famed models, it comes with the Toyota-sourced 3.5L V6 engine mounted in the middle. Although it may not be the quickest Lotus ever made, the Evora still compensates the flaws by being an all-round grand tourer made for the open road ahead.

2006 Lotus Exige

With response of having a 1.8L engine out from the Toyota Celica in the Lotus Elise, causing Lotus a marginal success, they began making a hard-top hardcore version of the Elise known as the Exige. With 190HP developed from the 1.8L Toyota engine and because it weighs less than a ton, this small but mighty sportscar can do 0-60 in 4.9 seconds and a top speed of 147mph and it's not just all about power sent through the rear wheels, it's still corners gently on the track. Quite a track-day weapon they made though.
