Since Pagani Automobili began in 1992, there have been only three production models to emerge from the mind of enigmatic founder Horacio Pagani—the Zonda, the Huayra, and the Utopia. The world takes notice of each new variant, transfixed by their intoxicating blend of cutting-edge materials, traditional craftsmanship, advanced technology, and obsessive attention to detail, all wrapped in remarkable styling that manages to be both purposeful and extravagant.

The Huayra was the long-awaited successor to the original Pagani, the Zonda. Named after a Quechua wind god, the Huayra debuted in January 2011 looking like something from another galaxy. Its unearthly appearance concealed the company’s first application of active aerodynamics: A complex series of flaps in the lightweight composite bodywork, controlled by the ABS and ECU systems, varied the degree of downforce instantaneously, keeping the car planted and stable, whether approaching 240 mph or negotiating a decreasing-radius turn.

An AMG-sourced twin-turbocharged V-12 engine hand-built in Germany specifically for Pagani by master engine builder Michael Kübler sent over 700 horsepower to the rear wheels through a seven-speed, single-clutch sequential gearbox, chosen for its remarkably low weight. The initial gullwing-door coupe garnered resounding praise, and it was perhaps inevitable that an open version would follow. The Huayra Roadster debuted in 2017 after several years of development. What emerged was a notably different car.

Power still came from a 6.0-liter twin-turbo AMG V-12, but with output dialed up to 754 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque. The bodywork incorporated a removable roof panel and conventional doors, while a revised carbon-titanium monocoque helped shed mass without sacrificing rigidity. Though convertibles usually pay a weight penalty, the Huayra Roadster is actually lighter than its hardtop counterpart—proof of Pagani’s obsession with making each variant a genuine, progressive evolution of the core model on which it is based.

In total, Pagani produced only 100 Huayra Roadsters from 2017 to 2022, with another 40 track-focused Roadster BC variants built from 2019 to 2022, and followed by eight Imola Roadsters. Pagani will, however, churn out bespoke models for its elite clientele from time to time. The most notable among these are fitted with an Xtrac seven-speed manual transaxle to satisfy purists. Only an estimated 14 examples of the manual-gearbox Huayra coupe exist—and just a single roadster, now offered here.

Named the “Executor” after one of Darth Vader’s notorious Star Destroyer spaceships in the Star Wars saga, this remarkable one-of-one roadster was commissioned by its original owner through prestigious Southern California ultra-luxury dealer O’Gara Coach. The exterior is finished in stunning, blue-tinted exposed carbon fiber with Indaco Blu and white accents. Unique aerodynamic elements include a deeper front spoiler, canards on the front bumper, a large rear wing, and sculptural air inlet perched above the roof. Satin-finished lightweight forged wheels complete the aggressive yet refined presentation.

Output of this roadster’s 6.0-liter twin-turbo V-12 exceeds even that of the track-only Huayra R, rated at a lofty 846 horsepower and 774 pound-feet of torque—all the more thrilling to experience through the gratifying mechanical engagement of the Xtrac manual gearbox.

Amid the numerous exposed titanium and carbon fiber elements, the centerpiece of the Black Mamba and Indaco Blu leather interior is the gear shifter, its components fully exposed like gleaming metallic art beneath the aluminum shifter gate. In addition to the rigid transparent roof panel, a collapsible soft top is included, along with a set of matching custom luggage.

Any Pagani Huayra is a rare sight, whether on the street or the auction block. This singular roadster, showing just 53 miles at cataloguing time, is the first and only one in existence with a manual gearbox—in addition to its numerous other bespoke features—offering the purest expression of high-performance motoring, quite literally unlike any other.
