Top 10 Most Expensive Cars manufactured by Aston Martin and designed by Ian Callum rose to recognition after being featured as the official James Bond Car in the movie ‘Die another Day’. It is also the ‘special occasion car’ in the twilight series by Stephenie Meyer.
To talk about the most sophisticated and technologically advanced new model, the only name that hovers in our mind is Aston Martin Vanquish. With close co-operation and technical assistance from the Ford research and vehicle technology group, the new V12 Vanquish reveals structural integrity and high standards of efficiency. With price tag of $255,000, this cool looking car is the tenth of the top ten most expensive cars in the world.
The Vanquish was developed in the wake of a GT concept car, better known as the Project Vantage concept car. Available in either a two or two plus two seat coupe, the V12 Vanquish has the power of accelerating to 60 mph in under 4.5 seconds and 100 mph in approx 10 seconds.
The Vanquish V12 engine shares some components and design elements with the 3.0L Duratec 30 V6. The engine was designed at Ford research in the USA. As the engine shares the same bore and stroke dimensions, it is found people incorrectly dismissing Aston Martin V12 as merely ‘two Duratecs linked together’.
The standard Vanquish model comes with 355 mm and ventilated disc brakes with Abs, electronic brake distribution while the Vanquish S featured larger 378 mm front and 330 mm rear motors. In addition, with the electronic drive by wire throttle system, Aston Martin engage F1 style paddles that enables gradual gear changes to be performed less than a blink of eye.
Now the common question that arises in common people’s mind is what makes these cars so exorbitant? Frankly, if one part is the years of work that went into designing and making them, the other part relates to the brand name. These two parts combine to make the car as expensive as it is.
Remember, you need to pull the strings of your purse a bit too much to own the car and feel proud of itin the World – #10 Aston Martin Vanquish. This super car
