 Aston Martin Virage Volante by Q: 2012 Geneva Auto Show |
|
Mar 06, 2012 - 5:56 PM - by AutoGuide.com
|
Ahead of the official Geneva Auto Show unveil tomorrow, we managed to catch an example of Aston Martin's new "Q" bespoke service between polishings.
It offers Aston customers an unprecedented level of customization including this Virage Volante finished with a bespoke satin Mariana Blue with new diamond turned wheels. Until now, the special British sports car had only appeared in press photos.
You can see the yellow leather headrest accents that match the car's brake calipers and offer a striking contract to the exterior.
"This [service] could extend to colour matching a Brompton bicycle to their Aston Martin, supporting the customer's architect to design their house, or creating colour themes and materials for the interior specification of a yacht," the company said in a press release.
Pricing details aren't available, but we don't expect them to be beyond the closed doors in a salesman's office. After all, this is a service aimed at making Aston Martins into one-off products, so it wouldn't make sense to speculate one man's trash is another's treasure.

Aston Martin Vantage GT4 Updated for 2012 Racing Season |
|
Mar 06, 2012 - 2:50 PM - by AutoGuide.com
|
Aston Martin has updated its Vantage GT4 race car for the 2012 season, with the revamped model making its debut this past week at Silverstone for some shakedown runs.
Sporting a new aerodynamic body kit with a carbon fiber rear spoiler, the Vantage GT4 will also make an appearance at the upcoming Geneva Motor Show for race enthusiasts to enjoy. The carbon rear spoiler is the first time it has ever been seen on the Vantage GT4 race car, which we have to admit looks a little out of place, but is certainly a necessity for the race car.
Inside, Aston Martin redesigned the roll cage to increase legroom for the driver, while the fuel tank has also been moved to lower the vehicle's overall center of gravity. It appears that the powerplant will remain untouched from its 2011 update, retaining the 4.7L V8.
