Earlier this day, Bentley unveiled Azure T, a special model of the standard Azure dubbed “world's most elegant convertible.” Well, as far we can see, Project Kahn designed the most powerful rival a car model can get when talking about luxury and elegant styling. Basically, Project Kahn's Vanquish is an upgrade of the original Aston Martin Vanquish, now customized with all kinds of expensive materials and custom paints.

The photos pretty much say it all about the aftermarket Vanquish, but let's review the upgrades underwent by the original Aston Market.

First of all, wheels and tires. The car comes with Kahn RS-V 9x20-inch on front and 11x20-inch on rear, especially designed to accommodate original center cap. Secondly, exterior components. Project Kahn equipped the Vanquish with a special S front spoiler plus double strike bullet vents which not only improve the appearance of the car but also its performance.

Interior now features high gloss piano black fascia panels and Nappa leather covering the sport yet elegant seats. The Pentagon privacy glass assures a bit more privacy than the regular windows, Project Kahn explained in a press statement.

Car performances are enhanced only with the help of a Project Kahn Vanquish sports exhaust system, the customized model including basically the same engine as the standard Aston Martin model. There are several options available, including a special Project Kahn high gloss piano black or two tone leather finish steering wheel.

“An exquisite interior that marries beautiful hand – finished materials with the very latest in performance technology tempered with an aura of perfection,” Afzal Kahn said about his most recent creation. More images in the gallery below.
