Pagani is known for building out of this world supercars, so when the Italian brand partnered with Helios Productions co-founder and automotive addict Alejandro Salomon, we knew the result could be downright heavenly.

The investor, actor, and entrepreneur recently commissioned a one-off Pagani Huayra for his personal collection, and GT Spirit has released the first official images.

The exclusive Huayra 730 S has been dubbed ‘The Huayrab’ by Salomon, and features a distinct blue and yellow theme.

The primary renders show the supercar’s exposed carbon fiber body reflecting off a Mount Olympus-worthy backdrop, which is fitting given that Salomon’s production company is named after personification of the Sun in Greek mythology. In fact, the Huayra name itself comes from the Incan deity Wayra Tata, which means ‘Father of Wind.’

The 730 S’ gold wheels, which are pulled from the Pagani Zonda, are similarly divine, and the Zonda R’s two-tone pinstripe division makes appearance on ‘The Huayrab’ as well. There are even references to the automaker’s aerobatic Triclore, such as the v-shaped hood accent.

Showy aesthetic modifications like these (can’t forget the blue window tinting) could easily look gaudy on any other car, but on the Huayra, it just fits. After all, ostentatious spectacle is part of the brand’s appeal. It is worth noting, however, that Alejandro plans to amend the Huayrab’s interior, switching from the high-contrast blue and black color scheme to a full blue look.

Pagani is a small company with only 55 employees, but the Huayra is currently the fastest road car to ever lap Top Gear’s test track. The vehicles 6.0-liter, 730-horsepower biturbo V12 allowed the Italian to lap the Lotus-designed circuit in just 1:13.8.

Rivian R2 vs R1S: How will Rivian’s cheaper SUV compare?
The front three-quarter view of a 2022 Rivian against a rocky backdrop.

Rivian has finally unveiled the R2, its long-awaited attempt at a more affordable electric SUV. The new vehicle may not be available just yet, but fans of Rivian's design aesthetics and feature set are already looking forward to being able to order the new car. The R2 is targeted at being a more affordable take on the electric SUV and will sit alongside the flagship-tier R1S.

Let's get this out of the way right now: The R1S is most likely going to be a better vehicle than the R2. Rivian isn't replacing the R1S with the R2 — it's releasing the R2 as a more affordable alternative, and there will be some compromises when buying the R2 over the R1S.
