Manny Khoshbin, president and CEO of The Khoshbin Company, has a pretty ridiculous supercar collection. Koenigsegg, Bugatti, McLaren, and Pagani are just a few of the exclusive brands that can be found in his Southern California garage. One of the most impressive vehicles in his collection is his custom Pagani Huayra Hermes edition, where he collaborated with the Italian automaker and French fashion company to help get exactly what he was looking for. Of course, no expense was spared and when it comes to basic annual tuning, there is a hefty price tag attached to that as well.
The Beginning
Khoshbin placed the order for his Pagani in early 2015 and then reached out to Hermes to begin discussing a collaboration between the two. Hermes told him that they’d never done work of “this caliber,” but they have previously worked with Bugatti. Nonetheless, the French seemed open to the possibility and told Khosbin that he would need to pay for their travel time to the factory in Italy. Khoshbin, not one to ever stumble at a few extra dollar signs, believes doing so was “the best money [he] spent” because Hermes called him the next day and told him that the project was ready to go.
The Luggage
Along with the custom Hermes interior came a variety of pieces of Hermes luggage. The bags, from the stitching to the type of leather, perfectly match the interior details of the car. In total, the collaboration process took about eight months, while the entire journey, from start to car reception, was around 18 months.
Cost
A standard Pagani Huayra already comes in at a staggering $2.5 million, but that was nothing compared to the final cost of this vehicle. According to Supercar Blondie, the cost of the bafs alone comes to about $250,000. Add on three trips to the Pagani factory in San Cesario sul Panaro, Italy as well as all the custom details put into this vehicle and you’re looking at a cost of around $7 million. On top of all that upfront cash, the car has annual check up cost of $8000. Take a look at what it takes to get the car fixed and see inside the vehicle via the videos below.
