The V12 Zagato will be officially unveiled at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, and the first deliveries are scheduled for Fall 2012, with a price of £330,000 excluding taxes.

Below we report the official information on the car, including details on the design development and the assembly process.

The confirmation comes directly from the site of Aston Martin which is now a page devoted to its new model. “It will be produced in very few copies” can be read above.

A collaboration between Aston Martin and Zagato, the real monster will have a V12 6.0 developing 517 horsepower and 570 Nm of torque.

For now, the British manufacturer has not disclosed the price or the number of models produced, but it seems that we should pay around £ 330,000 (excluding taxes) to afford one of the 150 Aston Martin V12 Zagato available soon.

Classic Aston Martin DB5 Returns

Bond, James Bond, has driven a lot of different cars over the past 50 years, but none more iconic than the Aston Martin DB5 that first appeared in 1964’s Goldfinger. Over the years, the car has returned for cameo appearances in GoldenEye, Tomorrow Never Dies and the updated version of Casino Royale.

There’s a lot to like about the DB5, including the car’s timeless good looks and sheer elegance. If that’s not enough, its ejection seat, twin machine guns, armor plating, rocket launchers and oil slick generators certainly add to its charm. There may be faster cars on the road, but there aren’t many more difficult to overtake, which is one reason why the original movie car sold for $4.1 million in 2010.

Both the exterior and the interior design are very good. The interior will probably contain every single piece of luxury the passenger or driver would want. According to the Aston Martin CEO, the interior design will be minimalist, and every object will have a specific purpose.
