1997 - Aston Martin Db7 on 2040-cars
Sweet Briar, Virginia, United States
Enhance your looks without plastic surgery. You WILL look good driving this car. A rare, timeless classic design, the DB7 i-6 is said to have the purest lines of all the DB7 models. This car has been garaged for the past 10 years. Every repair and service document since 2004 comes with the car. Only 269 1997 DB7 i6 Volantes were brought into the US, and only an estimated 879 i6 Volantes were produced worldwide. Enhancements and features: Classic Gray leather interior with black piping Alacantra headliner Burl wood GT interior door pulls Half wood wheel and shift knob Dealer installed starter button Flush mounted Quicksilver exhaust to provide a little more aural authority Factory option 18” Speedline alloy wheels, rare and highly desirable Aston Martin valve caps Six cylinder supercharged developing 335 HP base, a tad more with the BBR upgrade and Quicksilver exhaust Stainless mesh upper and lower front grille GT strake Tonneau cover (useless, except for show) Extra headlight pod and Speedline wheel BBR stage 2 supercharger upgrade and ECU remap, one of a handful of cars in the U.S. with this upgrade. The upgrade changes the shift points to make them smoother and adds a few horsepower, essentially changing the car to more satisfactory level and making it the way it should have come out of the factory Impeccably well maintained This is a beautiful car with excellent mechanicals. All hoses have recently been replaced, rad core replaced. As with most low production Aston Martin cars, this one comes with its own unique set of quirks. The check engine light comes on when there’s nothing wrong. Transmission memory doesn’t take at startup and car needs to be turned off and restarted (rare). The window motors and control modules need replacing. This is not a concours car, it’s a car that has been driven and cared for.

Aston Martin Valkyrie gets insane 1,100-horsepower AMR Pro model
Tue, Mar 6 2018We still have yet to see the final production version of the road-going Aston Martin Valkyrie hypercar, but that hasn't stopped Aston from creating an even more extreme version of the already radical car. It's called the Valkyrie AMR Pro, and it's lighter, more powerful, has more downforce, and is only for use on the track. Powering the Valkyrie AMR Pro is a version of the standard car's naturally aspirated hybrid V12. In this guise, Aston says it produces 1,100 horsepower, more than the standard car. That engine won't have much to carry around, either, since Aston is aiming to have the Valkyrie AMR Pro weight just about 1,000 kilograms, or about 2,200 pounds. To hit that weight, Aston is using lighter carbon fiber for the body, carbon fiber control arms, a lighter exhaust, polycarbonate windows, molded seats, and it has removed the HVAC fan and infotainment system. Fortunately, Aston is including heater elements in the windows so that they don't fog up in wet or cool weather. The Valkyrie AMR Pro's body shape is different, too, and it has been changed to increase downforce. It has usual changes such as large front and rear wings. It also has a tall center fin like that found on prototype and F1 race cars. The body itself is wider, too. All told, Aston expects the car to produce over 2,200 pounds of downforce. The combination of all these performance enhancements means the car can achieve a claimed top speed of 225 mph, as well as cornering forces of over 3G. Aston Martin didn't reveal pricing, but it doesn't matter. Aston already sold all 25 Valkyrie AMR Pros it will build. The company says that they'll be delivered sometime in 2020. Related Video:
Aston Martin confirms new platform under development
Wed, Apr 30 2014It's been thirteen years since Aston Martin introduced the original V12 Vanquish. The model was effectively been replaced twice over by the time it reached its Bar Mitzvah, but its underlying platform is still around. And not just around, either: it underpins everything Aston makes and has made ever since it came on the scene, save for the Cygnet and the One-77 supercar. That includes the V8 and V12 Vantage, the short-lived Virage, the new Vanquish, the DB9, DBS, V12 Zagato and even the four-door Rapide. But while it may seem like forever that Aston's been using the VH platform, it won't be around forever more. In announcing its positive financial results for 2013, Aston Martin CFO Hanno Kirner confirmed: "We are engineering a completely new architecture and technologies to ensure that our next generation of sports cars is at the forefront of design, performance and technology." The new platform is expected to underpin the next generation of Astons Martin, and will be powered by a new V8 engine being developed by Mercedes-AMG, similar to the arrangement that sees V12s furnished to Pagani for the Huayra. Whether an AMG-developed V12 is also in the cards for Aston Martin remains to be seen the company ran on V8 power alone from the mid 70s (when its six-cylinder engine was retired) until the Ford-developed DB7 brought six- and then twelve-cylinder power. That aging but glorious 6.0-liter engine, by the way, still powers the vast majority of the company's lineup. The platform and associated technologies are being funded by the influx of capital from shareholders Investindustrial, Primewagon and Adeem Investment and by a 13-percent increase in revenue due to the launch of the new Vanquish Volante and V12 Vantage S, as well as the company's expansion into new markets like Mexico and Thailand. It wasn't long ago that upon spending a week with the company's Vanquish coupe that we fell just short of love, wondering aloud how long Aston could weather its uncertain financial picture while still relying heavily on elderly technology and drivetrains cradled in elderly platforms. We now appear to have our answer, and we like what we're hearing. Aston Martin Holdings (UK) Limited Full Year Results 2013 28 April 2014, Gaydon: Aston Martin Holdings (UK) Limited is today announcing full year results for the 12 months ended 31 December 2013.
Overnight action from the 24 Hours of Le Mans
Sun, 23 Jun 2013We won't go into a recap here, but there are still leading positions being fought for in all classes - it's so close that leads are changing when a car goes into the pits. We'll let the recap wait until the end of the race, so for now enjoy some shots from last night's action at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
