$1,831,776 Aston Martin One-77



It's hard to think of a DB-9 or Vanquish as anything other than automotive perfection, so when the Brits in Gaydon say the One-77 is the embodiment of Aston Martin design, color us interested. The ultra-exclusive two-seat supercar seems to have it all: a 700 hp V12, carbon fiber chassis, aluminum body, and the ultimate in Aston design. The One-77 has an exclusive price tag of about £1,050,000 or $1,831,776 before taxes, too, and even the Paris Motor Show isn't a big enough venue to unveil the full design to the world.

Aston Martin is sure playing up the anticipation for the One-77, and even though there is absolutely no shot we'll ever get to drive one, we're taking the bait. Teasers and sneak peaks are all we're getting at this point, and with a full year before it goes on sale, we could be waiting a bit longer. Aston CEO Bez Ulrich and chief designer Mark Reichman sat down to discuss the One-77 with the cameras rolling, and the two key players on team Martin seem to be in love with this vehicle.

Front grid looks über sexy. But even as a Aston Martin fan, I'm not sure about the outside of the headlights and about the air outtakes behind front wheels.

Wait & see. No other choice. Goddamn them

I have to agree with tom, the front with its' large grill looks so sexy. Can't wait to see the rest of it. V12 powah ftw.

Is the side view mirror made out of some clear plastic or something? Sweet, Now that I look at it again, the rims look crazy!

One-77 is the embodiment of Aston Martin design

Hardly... imo it just embodies Aston Martin design of the last 10 years. Dont get me wrong they are drop dead gorgeous cars, everything that Aston has put out in the last couple years. But that still doesnt change the fact every car they've done all look the same. Porsche is more imaginative than they have been. For me the last best Aston Martin was the Aston Martin Vantage V600. That car had class and a style that embodied what they stood for.

I'm glad Aston doesn't build cars like the old Vantage V600 now. If they'd continued on that tangent, they would surely have been out-of-business at least 4 years ago.

The new ones are the way it should be. Contemporary and well built. However, I feel that it will be out-performed by the new McLaren P11 (the cut-price F1 replacement). The McLaren will probably almost match it for acceleration, and probably well out-run it everywhere else. At a price the modestly rich can afford.
