New Aston Martin Vanquish Revved by CEO for US Customers

Before the show cars headed out for Pebble Beach, Aston Martin CEO Dr. Ultich Bez, showed the new Vanquish off to a few customers. It seems that Matt Farah was among those people, because a video of the Vanquish revving its engine just turned up on TheSmokingTire.
In it we see a baby blue Vanquish and Mr. Bez in regular streets clothes (and a funny hat), explaining the advancements in paint and the characterful new version of Aston’s V12.

The AM310 is a replacement for the DB9 and the DBS. It’s built on a hollow-cast aluminum chassis and features aluminum body panels. This makes the car 55 kg or 120 lbs lighter, but also 25 percent stiffer.

Powering the exciting exotic car is a 6-liter V12 engine that delivers 565bhp (573 PS), which is 55 hp more than the DBS. Zero to 100 km/h is dealt with in 4.1 seconds and the car reach a top speed of 295km/h (183mph).

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
