What Aston Martin is rarer and more powerful than the factory entered V8 Vantage FIA World Endurance Championship?
Answer: the One-77 of which all 77 copies are sold out ... Except one, that awaits its future owner in Florida. Any takers will need to find 1.5 million euros.
The main feature of this car presented at the Geneva Motor Show 2009 was of using unusual materials: a carbon fibre chassis and aluminum body. This construction means that it tipped the scales at 1,600 kilos. A lightness, combined with the 750 hp 7.3 litre V12, allows it to reach its top speed of 355 km/h.
Next month, the One-77 will give way to the Aston Martin Zagato to be launched at the Geneva auto show. This new 'special' is limited to a production of 150, however, will be more reasonable than its predecessor: 6.0-litre V12 510hp, 400,000 euros.
