Aston Martin Rapide: Is the Rapide not selling?

Pagani Huayra confirmed for U.S.

The Pagani Huayra - Confirmed for the US Despite becoming a hypercar maker of renown – a major achievement in a little over a decade – Pagani has never sold cars in the US. Which means the delicious Zonda – in all its many iterations – has never been available  in the US market, and even imports from other parts of the world are impossible. Well, impossible if you follow the rules, but if you care to bend things a little… But Pagani always planned to sell the Pagani Huayra – Pagani’s latest creation – in to the US.
