Aston Martin, a brand that quietly resides in the dreams of many, has recently revealed a remarkable collection of four rare and exquisite Zagato models. While often overshadowed by the likes of Ferrari and Lamborghini, Aston Martin consistently captures our imagination with its blend of luxury, performance, and timeless design.
This latest offering, sourced from a private collection, showcases the pinnacle of the brand’s collaboration with the renowned Italian coachbuilder, Zagato. Featuring the Vanquish Zagato in its three stunning forms Volante, Shooting Brake, and Speedster alongside the powerful DBS GT Zagato, this collection is hailed as a near perfect anthology of modern Aston Martin Zagato creations.
All four vehicles, underpinned by the previous-generation Vanquish platform, share a potent naturally aspirated V12 engine delivering 592 horsepower. The Vanquish Zagato initially revealed as a coupe at the 2016 Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este, was produced in a limited run of 99 units.
Subsequent introductions of the Volante, Shooting Brake, and Speedster expanded the total production to 325 cars, with the Speedster being the rarest variant, boasting a limited production of just 28 examples.
The Aston Martin Works collection boasts a lineup of rare and exquisite vehicles, none more so than the DBS GT Zagato. This limited edition masterpiece, created to commemorate Zagato’s centenary, is part of the exclusive DBZ Centenary Collection, comprising just 19 pairs of the DBS GT Zagato and DB4 GT Zagato Continuation.
These extraordinary automobiles are now available for purchase through Aston Martin Works. While specific pricing details are disclosed only to serious buyers, it’s clear that these cars are not intended for the average enthusiast.
The original DBS GT Zagato and its counterpart held the title of the most expensive car suite ever produced, commanding a staggering six million pounds (nearly $7.8 million) per pair, excluding taxes. To inquire about these rare gems, potential buyers must contact the Aston Martin Works division directly, as the company does not publicly list these vehicles.
