Among Hypercar enthusiasts, the matchup between the 2011 Pagani Huayra BC and 2022 Ferrari Daytona SP3 is one for the ages. These Modern classic machines competed directly for buyers' attention and continue to vie for collectors' affections today. The 2022 Ferrari Daytona SP3 holds a clear advantage in raw power with 840 hp compared to 789 hp, a 51-horsepower difference that shapes the driving experience. Under the hood, the contrast is notable: the Pagani Huayra uses a V12 DOHC 48V Twin-Turbo displacing 5,980 cc, while the Ferrari Daytona SP3 relies on a V12 DOHC with 6,496 cc. In the sprint to 60 mph, the 2022 Ferrari Daytona SP3 edges ahead at 2.8 seconds versus 2.8 seconds.
