It is a sports car that certainly turns heads. Just three weeks ago, an orange high-end Pagani Zonda F drew up outside Dolce Gabbana’s store on Canton Road while protests against the fashion house were in full swing.
Many of the protesters gaped in wonder or snapped photos of the HK$12 million Italian dream machine, which boasts an acceleration of zero to 100 kilometers per hour in just 3.6 seconds.
Yesterday, the car lay wrecked, wrapped around a tree trunk on Chatham Road. The driver, surnamed Shum, 39, was trapped inside the lightweight two-seater car – made mainly from carbon fiber – and had to be released by firefighters. He was not seriously hurt and left hospital after a check-up.
There are just 25 Zonda F cars in the world, one of which belongs to Cantopop singer Aaron Kwok Fu- shing.
