In fact, the Sonus Faber Sound System for the Huayra Roadster is about the only Pagani news on anything new we’ve had in the three years since the Huayra arrived – although there have been plenty of problems for the Huayra along the way.

An internal memo distributed this week directs workers to use the official name in all communications, from official duties to simple conversations.
