Shift 2: Unleashed

Shift 2: Unleashed To Exclusively Feature the Pagani Huayra

Shift 2: Unleashed will have a very special car exclusively in its garage for you to thrash around the racetrack, as the newly-unveiled Pagani Huayra - the manufacturer's Zonda follow-up - will be faithfully recreated for the game.

Although the name of the car sounds like someone dry-heaving, it's actually named after the Andean God of Wind, representing the Huayra's supposed gentle yet powerful nature. And while it certainly does look elegant, don't let that fool you. Beneath its sweeping curves, lies a 700 BHP engine capable of cranking out speeds of up to 230 mph. Perfect for ripping up the track in Shift 2: Unleashed.

“For the past seven years, the designing of the Huayra has been a labour of love and I’m ecstatic to be working with the entire Need for Speed team to help share our creation with the world,” said Horacio Pagani, founder of Pagani Automobili. “I’m amazed by how accurately they have been able to capture the look and, most importantly, the feel of the Huayra. Shift 2: Unleashed will give enthusiasts all over the world the opportunity to get behind the wheel of the Huayra.”

Take a look at a photo of the sleek Pagani Huayra below, which will be accurately rendered in-game when Shift 2: Unleashed launches on March 25th in Europe and March 29th in North America.

Beautiful car, looking forward to this more and more.

I'm hoping GAME do some type of trade in deal with Hot Pursuit towards this game, my wallet can't cope with all the purchases!

nfs needs to go back to the underground days it just cant match forza in terms of realism and top end cars. nfs underground 3 would be awesome.

For all the Europeans (non-islanders ;-) )out there: 230 mp/h equals 370 km/h.
Damn that's impressive o.O
Plus it looks better than the Zonda - thumps up for Pagani :-)

@ 5 i have to agree that racing simultors have been dominated by forza and GT, but seriously, underground 3? that shit was fun when i was 14 years old, looking back its retarted as fuck. and need for speed seriously has to take nitro away, i mean a veyron with nitrous in hot pursuit? what the fuck was criterion thinking? burnout is fun but bring the fucking original hot pursuit back! that game was awesome on the ps1!!!

What's with all these so called supercars having same design? Looks like mclaren f1 to me which looks like diablo/gallardo which looks like koenigsegg and so on... The only super car that looks different these days is good ol' porsches. Maybe callaway corvetter for that matter. Anyway, i'm yet to see a supercar that can seat 4 in comfort and that doesn't hurt my mortgage repayments. Another word, middleclass family friendly supercar. Please govt, step in and help poor souls like me.
