Aston Martin released a short video teasing their limited model, built to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the Supermarine Spitfire warplane.
The British company will only make 80 of these models, sold exclusively from the Lancaster Aston Martin dealership in Cambridge, UK.
First shown in July and finished in pearlescent Duxford Green with speed yellow accents, the V12 Vantage S Spitfire 80 is styled to match the original Spitfire warplane.
The front spoiler and rear diffuser are made out satin carbon fiber, the badge is solid sterling silver with a tailored Old English White inlay while owners can choose an original Spitfire serial number lacquered into the side strakes. The cabin also gets many aircraft-inspired details over a tan leather upholstery.
The 6.0-litre V12 engine still produces 563hp and 457 lb-ft (620Nm) of peak torque with customers able to choose between the seven-speed Sportshift III automated gearbox or its awesome manual version. 0-60mph (96km/h) comes in 3.7 seconds with the top speed set at 205mph (.330km/h)
The lucky owners will receive their cars at an exclusive handover ceremony on October 18 at the Imperial War Museum Duxford. As for the pricing, the limited Aston Martin V12 Vantage S Spitfire 80 is asking for £180,000 (around $236k in current exchange rates).
