The One-77, a sports car of unparalleled beauty with subtle aggression and performance developed in 2008 and 2009 with the goal of eclipsing any previous Aston Martin road car.
Price tag: 1,500,000 euro
The Ultimate Aston Martin
The most exclusive Aston Martin of the ‘Gaydon era’, One-77 was limited to 77 unique examples.
The first glimpse the world got of the One-77 hypercar was a maquette of the new car at the 2008 Paris Motor Show, three quarters covered by a grey pin-stripe fabric cover with only a glimpse of the front right side coyly peeping out.
The full picture was revealed at the March 2009 Geneva Motor Show , where a metallic blue mockup and rolling chassis with its entire power train were on display.
Automotive art
The finished car made its bow in late April 2009 at the Concorso d’Eleganza Ville d’Este on the shores of Lake Como, winning the design Award for Concept Cars and Prototypes.
Fusing advanced technology with stunning design, the million-pound, 7.3 litre V12 One-77 was revealed as the fastest-ever Aston Martin, with a top speed of 220 mph.
It represents what is possibly the world’s most desirable automotive art form, with an immensely rigid lightweight carbon fiber monocoque clad in a seamless body shell handcrafted from aluminium at its heart.
With all 77 examples sold, production of One-77 was completed in 2012.
