Aston
V12
Zagato:
Aston
Martin
V12
Zagato
was
released
in
2011
to
mark
the
50th
anniversary
of
the
iconic
Aston
Martin
DB4
GT
Zagato.
Both
designed
by
Zagato
in
Milano,
Italy.
Hand-built
by
expert
craftsmen
at
Aston
Martin,
the
Aston
Martin
V12
Zagato
finalized
a
very
limited
production
in
2013.The
V12
Zagato
was
developed
using
a
combination
of
the
latest
computer-aided
modeling
techniques
and
the
time-honored
method
of
hand-sculpted
clay
maquettes
to
combine
traditional
styling
cues
from
Aston
Martin
and
Zagato
into
one
cohesive
timeless
shape.All-alloy
engine,
quad
overhead
camshaft,
48-valve,
6L
V12,
Zagato
is
clad
in
hand-crafted
carbon
fiber
and
aluminum
featuring
elements
seen
on
previous
cars
from
the
Zagato
Milanese
Carrozzeria
like
the
'double-bubble'
roof,
double
bubble
back
window,
and
short
body
overhangs.Unveiled
at
the
prestigious
Villa
d'Este
Concours
in
May
2011,
the
V12
Zagato
was
awarded
the
Concorso
d'Eleganza
trophy
and
then
proved
its
sporting
credentials
at
the
Nurburgring,
where
two
endurance
racing
version
finished
fifth
and
sixth
overall
in
the
annual
24
Hours
race
on
the
challenging
German
circuit.
The
V12
Aston
Martin
Zagato
is
the
only
modern
Zagato
having
proven
race
history.Important!
The
V12
Aston
Martin
Zagato
is
often
confused
with
the
2018
Aston
Martin
Vanquish
Zagato.
However,
significant
differences!
First:
the
Vanquish
Zagato
was
NOT
designed
by
Zagato.
Aston
Martin
licensed
the
Zagato
brand
name.
Second:
A
total
of
only
61
V12
Zagatos
were
produced
(43
LHD
&
18
RHD)!
Only
4
known
in
US.
Consequently,
Americans
dont
really
know
the
rarity
of
a
V12
Zagato.
Many
never
seen
one
on
the
road,
nor
in
person.
On
the
other
hand,
325
Vanquish
Zagatos
were
manufactured
with
many
registered
in
US.
All
are
automatic,
most
are
4
seaters
too.
These
are
some
reasons
why
the
Vanquish
Zagatos
have
depreciated
significantly
and
the
V12
Zagato
is
sustaining
and
should
appreciate
over
the
years.
