The Pagani Zonda Tricolore, which was unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show, is intended to honor the Frecce Tricolori, the Italian air force aerobatics team.

The squadron is a demonstration team composed of nine planes and is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year.

Based on the exclusive Zonda Cinque, the Tricolore is constructed from a special carbon-titanium weave left bare but for a clear blue lacquer.

Like the Cinque, it is powered by an AMG-sourced 7.3-liter V12 engine with an identical 678-hp and 575 ft-lbs of torque.

The Tricolore is painted to match the squadron’s planes, and the result is a stunningly beautiful Zonda.

Red, white and green stripes run up from the nose along the top of the car’s surface, passing by the unique vertical fin air intakes.

LED running lights are also unique to the Tricolore, of which only one example will be built and sold at a whopping 1.3 million euros ($1.75M).
