Aston Martin has a couple of new models up its sleeve for debut at the Geneva Motor Show – the V8 Vantage N430 and DB9 Carbon Black/White.
The V8 Vantage is a race track-enhanced hard-core performance car – not the least of which is a power increase to 320kW. A raucous sports exhaust system extracts the most from Aston’s glorious 4.7-litre all-alloy, dry-sumped V8.
And the N430 also takes advantage of a unique sports calibrated suspension and braking system honed by Nurburgring testing.
Some 20kgs lighter than the regular Aston Martin V8 Vantage, the N430 sits on unique 10-spoke alloy wheels and carbon fibre/kevlar sports seats.
Also inside is lots of black carbon fibre and on the options list you’ll find a 1000w bang & Olufsen audio system.
For the V12 DB9, Aston Martin will roll-out ‘Carbon Black’ and ‘Carbon White’ models which – as the name suggests – provide startling colour contrasts which adds to the allure of one of the world’s most enticing sports cars.
No word from Aston Martin Australia about local plans for either model.
