Aston Martin has announced a special edition of the V8 Vantage S that takes its inspiration from the GT4 race car.
The new British sportscar to be sold exclusively in Europe (excluding Great Britain) will be available as a coupe and roadster. Offered for the first time with manual transmission, the V8 Vantage SP10 can reach a top speed of 190 mph thanks to the 436 hp stuffed under the hood.
According to Aston Martin, the inspiration behind it is "its namesake class SP10 in the VLN series, in which GT4 racing cars compete at the Nurburgring […] and is offered in a bespoke specification that reflects its close affinity with the racing car".
The manual transmission is not the only exclusive thing about this car. The SP10 will be available in Ceramic Grey Metallic (with a Titan Grey top for the roadster) and will get special high-gloss black 19-inch cast alloy rims and black brake callipers. Standard equipment includes visual and functional motorsport specific splitter and carbon rear diffuser.
Black seems to be the key color for the interior too, but with silver stitching for a sharp contrast. Both versions will get a "piano black" center console and a leather trimmed instrument panel.
The base price for the Aston Martin Vantage SP10 is $129,239 (96,635 euros + VAT).
