Pagani Huayra Featured on Jay Leno's Garage

When we met Horacio Pagani last year, we discovered a man with a passion for cars that surpasses that of all others. The latest fruit of Pagani’s passion it the Huayra supercar, a creations that stuns by its simple presence.
Now, the man behind the Italian supercar company decided to pay a visit to Jay Leno’s Garage in order to show him the automotive delicacy.

Unlike other times, Leno couldn’t get behind the wheel, since we’re talking about an incredibly expensive vehicle (the Huayra will set you back at least $1.35 million). However, he was “chauffeured” by Horacion himself, who showed him what the car can do.

Since we’re here’ we’d like to remind you that at the heart of the Huayra we have a six-liter V12 powerplant coming from AMG, which uses twin turbocharging to allow the driver to play with 700 hp and a peak torque of 740 lb-ft, which is mated to a seven-speed sequential gearbox.

All those tech goodies allow the Huayra to hit a top speed of 230 mph (370 km/h). Of course, when talking about such a car, a quick look on the number can never reveal its true character.

It comes with special details that you wouldn’t even imagine, such as it’s, which we’ve recently talked about.
