As a new and standalone company in the exotic and exclusive world of supercars, Pagani Automobili moves at a different tempo than other makers in this segment like Ferrari, which is supported by the Fiat Group, and Bugatti that lives under the umbrella of the almighty Volkswagen Group.
Since its inception in 1992, the Modena-based carmaker has introduced only two models; the Zonda and its derivatives in 1999, and its replacement, the still hard to pronounce, Huayra in 2011.
If the Zonda is anything to go by, then we should expect Pagani to build a family of models and special editions based on the Huayra, including, of course, a roadster body style.
Pagani hasn’t made it clear if and when a Huayra Roadster will happen, but a young Italian design student at IED Torino named Aldo Maria Sica came in contact with CarScoop to share his vision of what such a model could look like.
If you scroll down, you will find a description of the project from Sica along with an extensive gallery of photos.

Pagani Huayra Roadster by Aldo Maria Sica:
“As you can see, I decided to emphasize the “hull” of the car, distinguishing it sharply with an unpublished belt line that wraps around the new rear air intake going around the cockpit.
Inside the drawn area the engine remains evident and a set of three suitcases is housed. The central one is designed to accommodate the roof. This has the particularity to be composed of two rigid uprights joined by a flexible part, whose outer layer reproposes to the eye and touch the weft of the carbon fiber before it is cooked.
Right inside the cockpit you can put the roof in the bag, the opening of which looks to the rear window that can scroll down. Traveling without bags, alternatively, you can take advantage of the flexibility of the roof to seat in the content space between the seats. It will be supported to the rear bulkhead by two straps, correctly to Pagani style.
Finally not forgetting the theme of the flight that the coupe model was highlighted by the gullwing doors, the Pagani Huayra Roadster offers door with scissors opening, able to spring up.
Reguarding Colour and Trim I give two proposals. The first shows a fresh color, a white with pink reflections flanked by carbon parts painted with opaque pigments burgundy; the same color is used for the interior and exterior cladding.The second one suggests an autumn feeling, with a soft touch coating asphalt gray with orange nuances. The same orange tone is applied on opaque layer that covers the carbon and on the brake calipers. Here the soft parts are in scorched earth color.”
