To kick off our very first Photo of the Week, we have decided to start things off with a bang, with one of the most incredible photos ever captured of what is one of the most expensive supercars ever produced: the 2009 Pagani Zonda Cinque.

If reports are to be believed, only three white Cinque coupes were ever produced, with the remaining two units being bright green and bright orange. Furthermore, every single one of the Cinque coupes produced are reportedly all driving around one of the increasingly-luxurious and expensive regions in the world: Hong Kong.

Taken by Nicholas TJ.R Photography, the following image shows off the incredibly well-detailed and aerodynamically inspired rear end of this hypercar, which cost a cool $1.3 million when it went on sale in 2009.

As a quick refresher, the 2009 Pagani Zonda Cinque features an AMG-sourced 7.3-liter V12 engine producing 678HP and 575lb-ft of torque which is mated to a six-speed sequential transmission. When combined with the extremely lightweight body and those massive rear tires, the car can launch to 62 mph in just 3.4 seconds and 124 mph in 9.6 seconds before continuing onto a top speed in excess of 220 mph.

Stay tuned for next week?s ?Photo of the Week?!

Photo of the Week: 2009 Pagani Zonda Cinque in Hong Kong originally appeared on topspeed.com on Tuesday, 22 May 2012 18:00 EST.

At the moment the politics of F1 are rather murky, with all manner of stories swirling about in the mist. There are stories of deals being done with Mercedes-Benz, of rival bids, of Ferrari changing sides and so on. The only thing one can say with any certainty in this matter is that at the [...]

I just got done checking out their website and it doesn't look like they're offering too much this year as far as model car kits go and I'm wondering why that is? While Moebius and Revell are putting new kits on the shelves this year, I would think that Round 2 would "dust off" some of those old dies and jump on the bandwagon. What do you guys think?
