The Pagani Huayra BC is the focused performance variant of the Huayra. Produced from 2016 to 2018 with limited production around 20 cars total, the BC (Benny Caiola, named after a Pagani client and friend who passed away) used the Mercedes-AMG twin-turbo V12 making 791 horsepower (vs 720 in standard Huayra). Reduced weight by approximately 130 pounds versus standard. Aggressive aerodynamics with active wing system. The BC represents the focused performance peak of the Huayra platform. The Huayra BC Roadster (convertible variant) was added in 2018. Production volumes are extremely limited; pricing has appreciated significantly to $5-7 million+ for clean examples.

Is the BC track-focused?
Yes, more so than standard Huayra. Reduced weight, more aggressive aerodynamics, and tuned chassis make the BC track-focused while maintaining street legality. Pagani designed the BC for serious driving rather than just luxury cruising.
