The Aston Martin One-77 is getting its first public outing in the UK today, taking part in a supercar run from London to Silverstone.
The run is designed to promote the FIA GT1 World Championship, which takes part at SIlverstone this weekend. The pictures of the One-77, which is the first production-ready example made by Aston, were taken in central London this morning.

The Aston One-77 is powered by a 7.0-litre V12 engine, which produces around 700bhp. Just 77 units will be built; each example costs just over £1.2 million.
In testing, the One-77 has already become the fastest Aston ever, recording more than 220mph.

Wow, that's one stunning car.
I'll be at Silverstone on Sunday, I hope the One-77 will be there so I can have a good look.

I surely can't be the only one that thinks this is hideous, can I?

You most certainly aren't. The DB9 looks perfect, the DBS is perfect (lighter, lither and faster than a DB9), but has too many openings in the bodywork. This is just awful. If we could have a carbonfibre DB9 with DBS suspension and One-77 running gear, I'd be happy.

I wouldn't exactly call it awful, I think it looks good. The front can look a bit odd but that's only because we're so used to seeing the DB9/DBS shape so often. I have to give credit to Aston Martin for trying to push the boat out a bit in their car design (albeit not that much though), otherwise they're gonna become another Porsche copy 'n' paste car maker. If I was paying a million+ for a car, it better look a bit different from the rest of the range!jmd67

No, YOU're mad. Nobody sane gets THAT excited about what is still, at the end of the day, JUST A BLOODY CAR.

[/quote]So, what gets you really excited? Let me guess. Someone kicking a ball around a field? Or maybe a really good election debate? ; -)
Sorry in case you didn't realise, this is a car-related site, for people who LOVE cars (and get very excited about them.)
