Based on the exclusive <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/07\/03\/droolworthy-pagani-rips-the-lid-off-its-cinque-for-new-roadster\/\">Zonda Cinque<\/a>, the Tricolore is constructed from a special carbon-titanium weave left bare but for a clear blue lacquer. Red, white and green stripes run up from the nose along the top of the car&#8217;s surface, passing by the unique vertical fin air intakes. <\/p>\n<p> LED running lights are also unique to the Tricolore, of which only one example will be built and sold at a whopping 1.3 million euros, or about $1.75M in American funds. The Tricolore is slated to be unveiled at the upcoming <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/tag\/genevamotorshow\">Geneva Motor Show<\/a>, so stay tuned for in-the-carbon photos, but in the meantime, you can check out the images in the high-res gallery.<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<div class=\"postgallery\">\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/pagani-zonda-tricolore\/low\/\">Pagani Zonda Tricolore<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/pagani-zonda-tricolore\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/zondatricolere04-20cm_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/pagani-zonda-tricolore\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/zondatricolere03-20cm_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/pagani-zonda-tricolore\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/zondatricolere05-20cm_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/pagani-zonda-tricolore\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/zondatricolere01-20cm_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/pagani-zonda-tricolore\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/02\/zondatricolere02-20cm_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p> [Source: Pagani]<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/02\/25\/geneva-preview-pagani-zonda-tricolore-is-a-ground-bound-air-for\/\">Geneva Preview: Pagani Zonda Tricolore is a ground-bound air force tribute<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Thu, 25 Feb 2010 12:00:00 EST.
