Aston Martin’s £1m car…

March 4, 2009 – 9:33 am

The world is apparently in financial crisis… car companies are apparently struggling (even though they’ve all been making vast profits for 10-50 years)… shops are pulling the ‘administration scam’

Aston Martin 177 BUT ASTON MARTIN, who usually slap a £120,000 price tag on their cars, have unveiled a £1,000,000 car called the 177 (one-77) right in the middle of the worst recession for a ‘few years’.

This is probably their DBX model which they intend to run as their flag ship. It was shown at the Geneva Motor Show. BBC reported on it here.

If the 177 is the DBX, then it will have a top speed of around 205 mph (330 km/h) and a V12 mid engine tuned producing 700 bhp. This car will be very eco-friendly. Producing enough CO2 to keep a few trees fed! Yes, our exhaust is food for nature. :)

Top gear’s Clarkson recently said astons are now ‘uncool’ as all the footballers are buying them. And well, I don’t think many other people could afford this one.

It looks good, but £880,000 better looking than a DB9?
