Prices are in Euros, not pounds.
29000 Euro = $40791.57 Cad
Can of plati-dip at homedepot is 22.39 w/ tax.
40791.57/22.39 = 1821 cans and 86.5% of another one.


Unless the rear-view camera is some microscope-grade glass with optics developed by NASA, $6900 for a fucking camera!

112500 GBP for full carbon bodywork? That's crazy!
You can a Porsche 911 or a GT-R with that kind of money and still have money left over.

maybe it would have to replace some CF body panels to put in a camera so they're passing the cost over :O

Rear parking sensors are a steal at that price. You're going to need them trying to back that ass up.

y r the options so damn expensive? because pagani know they can charge what ever the fuck they want. they know damn well who ever has the money to buy a pagani aint gonna fuss over the cost of options that the buyer wants on their vehicle. to us average joes, the pricing looks ridiculous, but to buyers of paganis, its merely chump change.

Consider it this way: You really going to bring your Pagani to Best Buy to have a back up camera installed?

Can you get anything right, Timpo? You literally posted a picture of 2 parking sensors and then said it has 1... how can I trust any of your GTR stats when you continue to let me down?

Besides, of course the Mazda2 has 2, that's why its called a Mazda2...

Based on the materials used in the car, I would imagine it's milled from a solid piece of Titanium and the lens is made from the same type of fine crystals used by high end watches.
