After a 17-year hiatus, Italian hypercar marque Pagani is back in Singapore under a new dealership – and they’re already sold out for the next four years, says Eurokars Supersports general manager Chong Kah Wei.

“The beauty of Pagani,” said Chong, “is that it can be registered in Singapore.”

The price differential for the two ownership models is rather exponential, starting at €2.15 million tax-free, and shooting up to possibly S$12 million once it’s registered. Intriguingly, Chong tells me all the new orders on the books are from the local market, although the company is able to sell to other regions in Asia, which have no Pagani dealerships and representation.

Certainly, one could argue that the hypercar business is as much about selling a dream, as it is about peddling peerless performance cars. “Mr Pagani knows all the owners around the world and has that personal relationship with them where everybody is like a family. Italians are very friendly people and though he’s not Italian – he’s actually a second-generation Argentinian living in Italy – he has that strong culture of family, even within the factory itself,” Chong shared.
