Even though the three hosts teased us about what was about to come, and after watching them for so long, we’ve come to expect almost everything, the season premiere that aired on Sunday, 27 January on UK’s BBC Two managed to throw quite a surprise.

The Huayra makes do with a mid-mounted 6.0-litre bi-turbocharged V12 engine sourced from Mercedes-Benz's AMG division, rated at 720hp (730PS) and 1,000Nm (737 lb-ft) for 0-100km/h (62mph) acceleration time of 3.3 seconds and a top speed of 360km/h (224mph).

As impressive as it may be, there are some ways to make the Huayra stand out even more from the crowd, namely by individualizing the car's appearance.

In this case, said driver happened to be a Greek journalist from Drive Magazine who had the rather unique opportunity of jumping behind the wheel of the $1.4 million Huayra without having someone (as in a company official) taking the passenger seat to observe him.

A one John Jack had the privilege of seeing Testi manhandling [sic] the exotic supercar from the relative comfort of the passenger seat during a trip in Italy and was also kind enough to share the experience with the rest of us through a video that you can enjoy right past the break.

The Audi R8 is by all means a sharp looking and handling automobile that will likely be fast even in e-tron guise, which is Audi talk for its pure-electric powertrain that uses two electric motors on each axle.

Now, seeing eleven Pagani Zondas and one Huayra gather at the same place at the same time is nothing less of extraordinary.
Do we need to say more to convince you to hop over the break to watch the two videos from the Pagani owners meet in Italy?

The new Pagani Huayra might have come to life at last year's Geneva Motor Show, but to date, very few people have sat in it, let alone test drive it.

The company that was founded in San Cesario sul Panaro, near Modena in Italy, in 1992 by Horacio Pagani, launched its first model, the V12-powered Zonda, to critical acclaim in 1999.
The Zonda remained in production until 2011 when Pagani presented it's second model, the Huayra at last year's Geneva Motor Show.
In the video documentary that follows after the jump, you can watch how the Huayra came to be and what it takes to build one.

This latest find is the work of the crew over at eGarage who filmed a short clip of the Huayra with the promise to release more footage in the near future. Here's hoping that next time, they'll skip on the annoying music background and let the 700-horsepower V12 powerhouse do the singing…
You can check out the video after the break.

Among the very few people in this world to have had the chance to take a ride in the brand-new Huayra is EVO magazine's Harry Metcalfe who was invited to a special event for Pagani owners in Sardinia.
While Metcalfe wasn't able to drive the car himself, the company's founder and owner, Horaccio Pagani took him for a spin in the Huayra providing us with some pretty cool footage which you can check out for yourself in the video after the break.

Marchettino attached a video camera on the rear corner of the Huayra as the supercar made a quick lap around the Adria International Raceway, which is located the Veneto region of Northern Italy. The result? Well, let’s just say that we weren’t exactly thrilled from the sounds of the V12, but keep in mind this may be due to the poor fitting or quality of the camera.

When Pagani unleashed the first photos its hypercar named after a South American god of wind, there seemed to be a bit of negative feedback. Many did not enjoy the looks of the wide bottom feeder mouth and oddly set rear tail lights. As with many cases of change, acceptance has seemed to slowly set in. The car looks much better under the radiant spotlights of the Geneva floor.
Fortunately, there's some good news for all us non-millionaire daydreamers as the 700+ horsepower Huayra is one of the cars listed on the upcoming racing game, Need for Speed: Shift 2 Unleashed. The game is scheduled for release on March 29 in the U.S., March 25 in the UK and April 1 for the rest of Europe. You can get a virtual taste of the new Pagani in the trailer after the jump.

I also like Ardalan Farboud’s Pagani Sei design study. It has the sort of unfussy slickness that the Zonda had and the Huayra lacks, while staying true to the brand’s tenets of being lithe, fast and using gratuitous amounts of carbon fibre. Farboud, a recent graduate from Coventry University’s Master of Design course, produced the Sei as part of his final year project.
