Pagani Zonda Riviera sold for $5.5 Million at Auction

The one-off Pagani Zonda Riviera went under the hammer a few hours ago. The winning bid was a cool $5.5 million!

Whenever an ultra-rare Pagani comes up for auction, you can always expect bids in astronomical figures. The same was true when the Zonda Riviera rolled out at the Seven Concours held at the Riyadh Car Show.

The Zonda Riviera was delivered to Saudi Arabia back in 2017. Like most Zondas today, the Riviera started life as a Zonda F and was converted to the 760 spec. It is finished in pearl white with bare carbon fiber surfaces and blue accents. The spec is said to be inspired by the French Riviera and hence the name.

The car has twin carbon canards on either side and a carbon splitter. The front fender flares are also finished in carbon. It has a carbon roof scoop and shark fin. The interior of the Zonda Riviera features polished carbon and black aluminium. The seats are wrapped in blue leather while the headliner is alcantara.

The updated 7.3-liter V12 engine produces 750 hp and 575 lb-ft of torque. In comparison the regular Zonda F had just 594 hp and 561 lb-ft of torque from a similar capacity motor.
