Priced at $1.4 million each, the Aston Martin One-77 is an extremely special edition super car limited to only 77 units, all of them already sold to lucky owners who will be getting a 6.0 Liter V12 that makes 700 HP. The One-77 weighs in at a mere 3,300 pounds, thanks in large part to the extensive use of carbon fiber. The One-77 is capable of accelerating from 0 to 60 seconds in under 3.5 seconds and will have a top speed well in excess of 200 MPH. In fact, the One-77 became the fastest Aston Martin ever when it reached 220.007 MPH.
The new Aston Martin One-77 is more than just a supercar; it’s a godsend on wheels.
After its US unveiling at Pebble Beach last week, Aston Martin’s new flagship supercar has been making the headlines with its overall package, which is mind-blowing, to say the least. Even for the stratospheric standards given to supercars, the One-77 is being hailed as head and shoulders above the rest. It’s 7.3-liter V-12 engine, which is capable of churning up more than 700 horsepower and a top speed of well over 200 mph, as well as a 0-60 mph time of 3.9 seconds.
If justifying the One-77 as the car every man wishes to be behind the wheel of, we came across this video of the One-77 in action. You may have to wait to get to the good part, but believe us, it’s all worth it.
When Aston Martin unveiled its $2 million supercar, the One-77, in Europe a few months ago, American fans of the British carmaker have waited with baited breath for the One-77 to make its first official appearance on US soil.
That day has finally come after Aston Martin pulled the covers out of its latest supercar at the 2009 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. Noteworthy for its jaw-dropping performance - even for supercar standards - the One-77 boasts of 7.3-liter V-12 engine, capable of churning up more than 700 horsepower, a top speed of well over 200 mph and a 0-60 mph time of 3.9 seconds.
To justify the car’s stratospheric price tag, Aston Martin spared no expense in fine-tuning every detail in the car, including carbon ceramic wheels, LED headlights, and a white leather interior with personalized stitching of the two-seat cabin. There’s only one other car that has approached a $2 million fetching price: the Bugatti Veyron. The Aston Martin One-77 is looking to join that ultra-exclusive list as it goes country hopping in anticipation of the car’s official release sometime down the road.
For now, the sight of the One-77 in the flesh should suffice, especially for Americans who have waited months to catch a glimpse of the ‘next big thing’ of supercars up close and personal.
There is no better opportunity to show off a high performance super car than on a Grand Prix Weekend and Aston Martin being no fools took full advantage of the German round of the Formula One calendar to promote the first production One-77 and the company’s new Nurburgring boutique.
Priced at $1.4 million, the One-77 is limited to 77 units, all of them being already sold out. What those owners are buyin is a 6.0 Liter V12 engine that makes 700 HP and weighs in at only 1,500 kilograms, that is a scant 3,300 pounds, nothing for a V12 powered speed machine. Aston Martin will not confirm any performance data as of yet, but they have hinted that the carbon fiber bodied One-77 should go from 0 to 60 seconds in under 35 seconds and will have a top speed well in excess of 200 MPH.
Aston Martin’s One-77 is pretty much a shoe-in for the 2009 car of the year. With its 6.0 Liter V12, the same power plant as the DBS, DB9 and new V12 Vantage. With a peak output of 700 HP and a projected curb weight of 3,300 pounds, the One-77 should be blisteringly quick, the now Prodrive owned manufacturer predicts a 0 to 60 MPH time of around 3.5 seconds and a top speed in excess of 200 MPH.
The One-77 will indeed be true super car from the English coach builders, but until it does go on sale we will just have to settle for ogling it in moving pictures. Our friends at the U.K. based, Autocar, had a chance to speak with Aston Martin’s CEO Dr. Ulrich Bez about the upcoming One-77. Enjoy!
The English super car builder Aston Martin has just released a new image gallery featuring their most exclusive creation ever. The Aston Martin One-77 is powered by a 6.0 Liter V12 making 700 HP, the same unit found in the DBS, DB9 and new V12 Vantage. With a curb weight of around 1,500 kg the One-77 should be very quick, Aston predicts a 0 to 60 MPH time of just 3.5 seconds. The automaker also projects a top speed beyond 200 MPH.
