I don't believe so because they have not passed US safety standards. But I believe there is a car planned for the US.

Incorrect info. The CGT time is 7.28 by Rorhl. The Zonda beat it by .01 secs...not bad for the extra 700k eh ?

All heckling aside, the Zonda is an amazing car, none more so than in this final extreme version. Looks fantastic too. Well done Horacio !

+1....Seriously, the difference is so marginal, it's not even worth noting IMO. I mean I love the Zonda, but just wait for people to start referencing this to "prove" how it's a better car (and this is coming from someone with a ZF as his avatar).

as much as i love the zonda as well, it will probably be beat by the scuderia or 997 gt2 in the very near future. for if the 997 gt2 is faster than the cgt, the numbers so far are showing that the scuderia is faster than the gt2.

Love the Zonda F, but I think the Koenigsegg CCXGT och CCXR is faster around the ring.

The Zonda is the best looking car ever!

it has, it met the barriers

"Technical director Wolfgang Schreiber bravely holds his hand up. "I was in that car," he says, referring to the well-publicised photographs of a Veyron clanging its way down the Nürburgring barriers. "We were measuring suspension movement and one of the sensors cut its way through a brake line. I spun and then went back to the pits. Within 20 minutes, that car was back out on the track."
