Aston Martin One-77 already sold out and then some

If you're looking to be one of the lucky (and rich) buyers of the Aston Martin One-77, you may already be too late. Aston claims that over 100 wealthy buyers have signed up for the One-77 supercar, though it plans to build only enough to satisfy the car's label: 77. Amazingly, those customers have dropped a £200,000 deposit without ever having so much as seen a totally uncovered photo of the British supercar. But hey, it's an Aston, so how ugly can it be? If you've got money to burn, we can think of few ways to better spend over £1 million on an automobile, especially considering that it's rare enough to actually increase in value over time. It would help, too, if you could park and store a vehicle with a carbon fiber chassis, aluminum body, and 700-hp V12 engine, but that doesn't sound like much fun at all. From what we've seen of the car so far, it wouldn't be fair to force the museum life on the One-77.

Damn...I just want to see one in the flesh. This makes the 9' look like a little toy.

Something about this one just isn't clicking for me. I would probably change my mind seeing it in person, but it seems like the same design with some added scoops. The DB9 was stunning, the Vanquish was brutal, and the vantage is awesome... this almost seems tired to me. Almost. And I reserve the right to change my opinion at a later date when there is more than a clay model.

this is for those rich heads who just won't settle with a normal excellent satisfying, astonishing Aston Martin.

Just in case you guys don't visit other sites, there is another auto site that starts with a "J" and ends with a "alopnik" that has more pics of this car. I tipped autoblog with it, but they claimed to have taken their own pics and didn't want to post them. So if you don't visit other sites, there are pics of the rear 1/4 panel, tailight and diffuser/bumper over on the J site...

"carbon fiber chassis, aluminum body"
Usually, that statement is reversed (alum chassis, CF body). Remarkable. Looking very forward to seeing the results.
