RE: Aston Martin V12 Zagato Revealed

Looks awesome....I'd lose the 'Z' badges and change the wheels and it would be all the car I'd ever want.

Good grief, I've just done something inappropriate in my trousers - thank god I have my own office at work.

Loving this and with a wheelbarrow full of money, I'd be on the phone today to order one. Now shoot me here, but if I had enough to buy a pair, I might go for the Zagato Bentley GT sister car as well.......







double-double bubble!!!

Very nice, could have been a bit more creative on the front end though.

Front end and side profile is "different" and perhaps more aggressive.

Regular AM V8 / V12 Vantage has a sweet rear end, this is plain ugly. Does anyone like that modified rear???

I love it.

[Wadeski]

Lovely. Manages to reverse out of the Aston design dead end they have been in since the DB7.

All pretty cars, which all look the damn same.

[Roberty]

Love it.

I'm glad the standard car doesn't look like this as I love the way that looks too, but as a limited run of specials it's spot on.

Just maybe not in Red.

On the basis that if you have to ask the price you can't afford it ........ how much?

Exactly what pooped into my head when I saw it..like a smoothed out gtr

[UltimaCH]

Just outstanding and difficult to find the right words...

[TaylotS2K]

Very nice. Although the overall shape does remind me a little of a 612.

So the V12 Vantage special run-off model isn't the volante after all (just as they have been saying). It's a super styled V12 Vantage road racer. The first great marketing stroke by AML for a few years. They must have got the normally sober marketing people to loosen up and go to the pub for a change. Now if the interior can avoid any ridiculous balsa wood and bamboo finishes, "Power, Beauty, Vomit" starting lights and they leave the gearbox alone, it might be a new classic.

I absolutely love Astons, but this is just

How about a loo-roll instead...!?

[FatFace]

I'm still yet to see a Zagato car that looks good IMO.

I do however think the rear end would look awesome howling down the Mulsanne straight at night, with the exhaust glowing red around that monstrous diffuser!

[DrewBot]

Wow, an excellent evolution of the Aston styling. It is definitely recognisable as AM but takes a huge step from the other cars in their line-up.

I love the roofline; manages to look edgy, elegant and agressive all at the same time. However, the above Bentley looks like it's been sat on .

So it's not a fixed design yet then, as these are clearly different?

[JohnGoodridge]

Just lovely, although would like to see it in dark blue or green with the orange/silver/yellow banding around the grille, especially as it's primarily a racer.

What? They're just at different angles!

Anyway, evo have a computer image of the race car:
