Aston Martin Vantage GT3 Special Edition

Aston Martin has revealed the first details of its most potent and uncompromising Vantage to date: the track- inspired Vantage GT3 special edition.

With production strictly limited to just 100 examples, the new model combines all of Aston martin's learning from its years of sports car competition around the globe to produce its most performance focused road-going Vantage.

It is equipped with a new iteration of the brand's 6.0 V12 engine, capable of generating up to 600hp; the cars weights in at 100kg less than a standard V12 Vantage S.

The car has been comprehensively re-engineered and significantly restyled, and is lower and wider than any of its siblings in the Vantage family. A broader track - front and rear - brings more composed cornering.

This new GT3-derived Vantage has been designed and engineered exclusively at Aston Martin's Gaydon Headquarters in Warwickshire.

The Vantage GT3 special edition will make its public debut on 3 March at the Geneva Motor Show, with first customers deliveries beginning in the third quarter of 2015. (If you're lucky enough to be able to afford one!).
