Aston Martin V12 Zagato: what do we salivate

Finally voila, this version of the series of superb Aston Martin V12 Zagato whose prototype was unveiled last year at the Concours d'Elegance Villa d'Este in Italy.

This week, as part of the holding of the Kuwait Concours d'Elegance Aston Martin will present for the very first time before a target clientele, the final version of its stunning V12 Zagato.

The "Dream Team"

The name Zagato is not by chance, since the prestigious Italian bodybuilder is responsible for the beautiful silhouette of this pure GT and hard. In addition, it was an opportunity for both companies to celebrate the 50th anniversary of their precious collaboration. The Aston Martin DB4 GT sports car was the first comic by Zagato.

A magnificent GT

All branded cars Aston Martin are beautiful achievements that are placed on another planet which is not necessarily that of Ferrari, Lamborghini and Porsche of this world.

The grille of these cars is by itself an "icon" of the history of the automobile, as is the silhouette of the legendary Porsche 911.

It goes without saying that the V12 Zagato is alluring to all these criteria.

English bolide is fully assembled by hand and each copy request 2 000 hours of work into a car series.

It weighs only 1,680 kilograms thanks to a generous use of carbon fiber and aluminum.

Based on the model V12 Vantage, this newcomer is adorned with a very chic interior that includes leather, carbon fiber and piano black appliques.

The V12 must

Its engine is the V12 Vantage which cylinder is 6.0 liters and output of 510 horsepower with a torque 420 lb-ft.

Only a six-speed manual gearbox is part of the decor.

Performance rating:

acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h: 4.2 seconds

speed: 305 km / h

A very reasonable price?

According to some, the GT would be sold has a starting price, which would be around the 330,000 euros ($ 436,000 CDN).

Yes, there will be groups of options available.

Personally I expected a lot more for this super sport car high performance V12 engine and produced only 150 units.

I would not be surprised to learn that all the Aston Martin V12 Zagato is already sold.

First deliveries are planned during the present year.
