Pagani continues to produce hypercar variants of the special Huayra. This time, presenting a new model with a manual transmission, Pagani is making its premiere at the Goodwood Festival of Speed this year. Most interestingly, this Huayra is unique and will never be replicated.

Extremely rich and seeking a Huayra with a manual shifter, a client ordered the Huayra Epitome, which is meant to represent ideal Pagani. The Xtrac-manufactured seven-speed transmission adopts the "latest triple-disc clutch for better torque transmission."

The Mercedes-6.0 AMG V-12 engine, spinning at 6,700 rpm, produces 852 horsepower and 811 pound-feet of torque, mated to the seven-speed manual transmission. The Huayra Epitome can reach a maximum speed of 217.5 mph because its power level matches that of the Utopia.

The Pagani Huayra Epitome's six-way titanium exhaust system, which includes a blown diffuser for increased downforce, lets out a deafening roar from the rear of the vehicle. They also tightened the suspension elsewhere. According to Pagani, the Epitome doesn't have as much pitch and roll as a regular Huayra, but you can have the most comfortable ride possible by switching to Super Soft mode.

At 93 mph, that driving mode turns off automatically. An updated front and back bumper with LED lighting highlights, a bigger grille for better airflow, a massive integrated rear wing, and a dark blue carbon fiber weave covering the whole body make up the minor external facelift. Nine months went into planning the special Pagani Huayra Epitome, and another ten months went into building it.
