Satin Carbon Black V12V's
Discussion
Not sure if these have been discussed on here?!
Limited production run of 40 cars. All have Carbon fibre packs. Either red or yellow calipers that I've seen.
They're supposed to be for the US market only? But a US dealer tells me only 6 for the US. So where are the others going? Not the UK as a dealer here has no info on them. And there's nothing on AM's website. I have identified 4 so far:-
S001149 - no.1
S001150 - no.2
S001156 - no.7
S001167 - no.5
I think they look bloooomin marvellous, even if the paint could potentially be a nightmare to maintain!!
The only good thing I can say about this car is that the V12V wheels look great in black, though this photo doesn't show them off that well
I suppose Aston are at least demonstrating they know their market (s) by not introducing this one to the UK.
It certainly works better on V12V than I imagine it would on almost any other car in the range (it would ruin the DB9 for instance, IMO) and if it sells, that's justification in itself, but for me, it's a few years too late and simply not very Aston.....

I wonder if the matt finish will make the car more collectable?
Its very easy to wrap a car in matt plastic, but then just as easy to take it off, indeed I understand that some people change their colour every year or so. I'm just wondering if in a few years to come, the Matt Carbon Fibre series will be collectable? It's the biggest fastest engine and it's got all the Carbon Fibre bonuses, and importantly there will only be 50 of them.
Love them or lothe them, will they be collectable in a few years time?

Happy New Year peeps 
Jockman/Little Donkey - thanks for your support!
I really dont think it's as bad as the majority are making out.




I think the carbon gear surround is pretty cool:-
