Aston's first carbon-fibre monocoque road car, with hand-formed aluminium body panels. The 7.3-litre V12 — an enlarged and reworked version of the AM11 family — was hand-built by Cosworth in the UK, making 750 hp at 7,500 rpm and 553 lb-ft at 5,500 rpm. Six-speed automated manual transmission via paddle shifters. Pushrod-actuated front and rear suspension with adjustable damping. Carbon-ceramic brakes standard. Magnesium-alloy wheels (20-inch). Top speed claimed at 220 mph. Production began 2009 at Aston's Gaydon plant, with each car taking around 2,700 hours to build. The full 77-car run sold out before any were delivered. Around 16-21 cars came to the US, depending on which sources you cite. Now a six-figure-asset hypercar — values have moved up consistently and provenance is everything.

Strengths

  • 750 hp from a naturally-aspirated V12 — record-setter at launch
  • Carbon-fibre monocoque (Aston's first)
  • Production rarity guarantees collector status
  • Hand-formed aluminium bodywork
  • Cosworth-built engine to bespoke specification

Weaknesses

  • Six-speed automated manual feels dated against modern dual-clutch hypercars
  • Maintenance is bespoke and astronomically expensive
  • Parts availability requires factory channels
  • Cabin ergonomics secondary to design
  • Daily-drivability essentially non-existent

Notable tech

  • 7.3L naturally-aspirated V12 (Cosworth-built)
  • 750 hp — most powerful NA production car at launch
  • Carbon-fibre monocoque chassis
  • Pushrod suspension with adaptive damping
  • Magnesium-alloy 20-inch wheels
  • 77-unit production run

Common issues

  • Bespoke parts mean any repair is expensive
  • Specialist service required (Aston factory channels)
  • Battery drain when stored unplugged
  • Carbon-fibre body panel paint stress cracking

Used-market budget

$2,500,000

Clean low-mile examples $2-2.8m. Provenance, mileage and originality matter enormously at this price. Auction-grade examples with documented Aston Works service history command the top of the range.
