Aston Martin Vantage V600
When Aston Martin's standard supercharged Vantage wasn't enough, the factory's Special Projects department created the V600. Taking the already ferocious twin-supercharged 5.3-liter V8 to new heights, the V600 produced an astounding 600 hp and 600 lb-ft of torque, making it the most powerful Aston Martin of its era. The massive power was channeled through a six-speed manual gearbox to the rear wheels, resulting in 200 mph top speed and sub-4-second 0-60 times. Distinguished by unique bodywork, massive wheels, and V600 badging, each of the 40 examples was hand-built to exacting standards at Newport Pagnell.
Extreme rarity with only 40 built. Full provenance and service history absolutely essential. Verify V600 authenticity with factory records and chassis number. Twin-supercharged engine requires expert maintenance. Check for proper service at Aston Martin Works or authorized specialists. Transmission and driveline must be verified for condition given massive torque. Original specification critical to value - modifications detract significantly.
Only 40 V600 models were built from 1998 to 2000 by Aston Martin Works Service. Each was individually commissioned and featured customer-specific options. The twin-supercharged engine was hand-built and extensively dyno-tested. V600 represented the ultimate development of the Virage/Vantage platform.
