Nice work Aston. Nice work.<\/p>\n<p>It was conceived and delivered by &#8216;Q by Aston Martin&#8217; and took about nine months.\u00a0The\u00a0Roadster features bespoke paint and trim, magnesium inlet manifolds with revised geometry, a lightweight magnesium torque tube, a full titanium exhaust system, carbon fiber body panels and an in-house developed suspension set-up.<\/p>\n<p>The Vantage GT12 Roadster is a significant landmark, for it is the first time a customer has been able to call upon the full scope of Aston Martin\u2019s design and engineering capabilities as part of the Q by Aston Martin bespoke commission service. Initially offered as a means of providing fully personalised colour and trim combinations, the service has been continually expanded. With the incorporation of Aston Martin Advanced Operations &#8211; the team responsible for the original Vantage GT12 Coupe, along with low volume in-house projects such as the Aston Martin Vulcan, Lagonda Taraf and One-77 &#8211; customers can now commission highly ambitious full-scale design and engineering projects.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Aston Martin has a growing reputation of building ambitious commissions for customers, perhaps the best example being the spectacular CC100 Speedster Concept,&#8221; said VP David King.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure

<\/div><\/figure>\n<h3>Press Release:<\/h3>\n<p>4 June 2016, Goodwood, England: Aston Martin today unveiled its most extreme roadster ever in the unique form of the one-off Vantage GT12 Roadster. A tailor made customer commission undertaken by Q by Aston Martin, the Vantage GT12 Roadster takes the original Vantage GT12 Coupe\u2019s hardcore ethos and adds the visceral thrill of open-top driving, offering the driver an intensified sensation of exhilaration and the unfiltered fury of a 600PS V12 soundtrack.<\/p>\n<p>Conceived and delivered within a nine-month period, the Vantage GT12 Roadster draws its origins from the Vantage GT12 Coupe, with a special 600PS version of the brand\u2019s 6.0-litre normally aspirated V12 engine mated to a seven-speed Sportshift III<sup>tm<\/sup> paddle-shift transmission. Technical highlights include magnesium inlet manifolds with revised geometry, a lightweight magnesium torque tube and a full titanium exhaust system.<\/p>\n<p>The most visible differences are the significant number of new carbon-fibre body panels, while beneath the skin a unique suspension set-up defined by Aston Martin\u2019s in-house dynamics experts, helping to ensure the Vantage GT12 Roadster shares the same exceptional handling characteristics as the Vantage GT12 Coupe. Naturally being a product of Q by Aston Martin, the Roadster also features bespoke paint and trim.<\/p>\n<p>The Vantage GT12 Roadster is a significant landmark, for it is the first time a customer has been able to call upon the full scope of Aston Martin\u2019s design and engineering capabilities as part of the Q by Aston Martin bespoke commission service. Initially offered as a means of providing fully personalised colour and trim combinations, the service has been continually expanded. With the incorporation of Aston Martin Advanced Operations &#8211; the team responsible for the original Vantage GT12 Coupe, along with low volume in-house projects such as the Aston Martin Vulcan, Lagonda Taraf and One-77 &#8211; customers can now commission highly ambitious full-scale design and engineering projects.<\/p>\n<p>David King, Vice President and Chief Special Operations Officer, says of the Vantage GT12 Roadster: \u201cAston Martin has a growing reputation of building ambitious commissions for customers, perhaps the best example being the spectacular CC100 Speedster Concept. We have also become world leaders in ultra-low volume projects with cars such as the One-77, Lagonda Taraf and Aston Martin Vulcan, while the Vantage GT12 and Vantage GT8 show how far we can take our series production models.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe GT12 Roadster is the first project to combine all of those skill sets in one magnificent car. In just nine-months we took a customer\u2019s dream and realised it, with a fully-formed, exactingly engineered and fully road-legal one-off. That is the essence of the Q by Aston Martin service\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Dr Andy Palmer, Aston Martin President and CEO, commented: \u201cThe Vantage GT12 Roadster is a hugely exciting project. Not just because it\u2019s sensational to look at, but because it vividly demonstrates the expanded capabilities of Q by Aston Martin. By incorporating the exceptional engineering capabilities of Aston Martin Advanced Operations within the Q by Aston Martin bespoke commissioning service we have a truly formidable creative team.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>In Detail<\/h2>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Engine<\/td>\n<td>6 liter V12<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Power<\/td>\n<td>592bhp<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Aspiration<\/td>\n<td>Normally aspirated<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Top Speed<\/td>\n<td>180mph (limited)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>0-60 mph<\/td>\n<td>\u00a03.7sec<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Aston Martin GT12\u00a0Roadster Aston Martin has revealed a one-off Vantage GT12 Roadster at the 2016 Goodwood Festival of Speed.\u00a0The\u00a0custom\u00a0Vantage GT12 Roadster is Aston Martin&#8217;s most extreme convertible thanks to an epic\u00a0V12 that produces\u00a0almost\u00a0600hp and a chassis built for racing.
