This Huayra Has Platinum and Diamonds

A manual V12 roadster is already a rare combination, but Pagani has found a way to make this one even harder to ignore.

The Huayra 70 Anima is the last of a three-car series, featuring an extraordinary finish developed through more than a year of collaboration with its owner. Real diamond dust is mixed into the blue paint, while the central stripe is decorated with hand-applied platinum leaf. Even the gear selector receives its own precious treatment.

But the real attraction goes beyond its appearance. A twin-turbo 6.0-liter Mercedes-AMG V12 sits behind the seats, driving the rear wheels through a seven-speed manual gearbox. How many modern roadsters still offer that combination?

Pagani also added ceramic-coated exhaust outlets, precision-machined aluminum details and a cabin finished in leather and Loro Piana fabric. The project fulfills a childhood dream of building a car alongside Horacio Pagani.

Would you actually drive something this extravagant, or keep it safely in a collection?
