What if the Pagani Zonda was a supercar from the 1980s?

New Designers 31 Aug 2015

With his original 1983 Pagani Zona project, Turkish designer Oguz Spahioglu imagines what the Italian supercar could have looked like had it been launched in the 1980s.

The 1983 Zonda is a true revival for those nostalgic of the 1980s supercars era: the age of the Ferrari F40s and Testarossa, the BMW M1 and the latest Lamborghini Countach.

An age of plastic skirts, massive wings and the first car onboard electronics.

The Zonda created by designer Oguz Spahioglu perfectly fits in the period, with its “low-tech” look, boxy shaped surfaces and many retro details: from the Testarossa-inspired side air intakes, to the dark plastic bumpers, mirrors and wings, the then “new” BBS wheels up to the small rectangular side light indicators, everything speaks the 1980 language.

The designer not only adopted the right aesthetics: he also created images heavenly inspired by the trends of the era.

The project follows by one year another rétro-themed concept by Oguz – a Pagani Zonda straight from the late 1960s . Another very interesting and fun project that brings back the soul of a past era.
