Chassis Number: SCFEBBGF9CGS3120
Immediately recognizable as not only an Aston Martin, but one with Zagato coachwork, the V12 Zagato is clothed in lightweight hand-rolled aluminum and carbon-fiber body panels.
Underneath the gorgeous coachwork was Aston Martin’s highest-specification Vantage drivetrain to date: the company’s competition-proven 5,935-cc 4-cam V12 engine that produced 510 bhp, mated to a 6-speed manual transaxle. With its massive acceleration to a top speed of 190 mph, the Aston’s performance was put to the test at the 2011 Nürburgring 24 Hours, where the two factory race-prepped cars known as Zig and Zag finished 5th and 6th in the SP8 class.
One of the most compelling Aston Martins we have seen thus far in the 21st century, the V12 Zagato combines the best of British hand-craftsmanship with Italian design.
