The One-77 supercar is set to be Aston Martin’s fastest road car ever after surpassing its maker’s predictions and comfortably breaking the 320 km/h mark.
The ultra exclusive £1.2 million car (only 77 will be made) is currently in the later stages of development ahead of its planned debut in 2010. During high speed testing at an undisclosed proving ground in southern Europe, the One-77 recorded a 354.86 km/h top speed in dry but windy conditions.
Powered by a new 7.3 litre V12 engine with over 750 bhp, the One-77 features a new carbon fibre monocoque body structure and adopts active aerodynamic technology. Gaydon describes it as “the ultimate expression of what Aston Martin stands for which will combine modern technology and design with craftsmanship and ultimate exclusivity to create the world’s most desirable automotive art form.”

Danny Tan loves driving as much as he loves a certain herbal meat soup, and sweet engine music as much as drum beats. He has been in the auto industry since 2006, previously filling the pages of two motoring magazines before joining this website. Enjoys detailing the experience more than the technical details.

anyone can buy it, as long as you have the cash.. i'm sure there will be quite a few sheikhs and hollywood stars in that list of 77..
just look at that "incredible hulk" like rear wheel arch! its rear tyre has to be one of the widest ever fitted on a production car.
New Batmobile
Wooo… damn ganas looking car!!
rally_fan is right… It's not impossible now to see that car in malaysia too actually. There are a lot of malaysian afford to buy Ferrari, lamborghini, bently, roll-royce, maybach etc nowadays.

I don'y understand why James Bond always drives an aston martin. it's like too obvious and showy for a spy right? A spy isn't supposed to show off, he is supposed to blend in.
thats more expensive than a Veyron which is worth 840k quid
if this would be james bond's ride then its gonna be limited to only 76, bcs surely he's gonna destroy it. hahaha

Bond is British. And no car maker is quintessentially more British than an Aston Martin. What would you rather him drive? a Roller or a Rover75?
Its moot point anyway…there are no more British car manufacturers anymore..
Bond being showy is how he fits in.
