![Bugatti Bird-gate Followup: Driver identity revealed <b>[*UPDATE:</b> Now with actual crash video!]](http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2009/11/bugatti-veyron-swim-1258147199_143x85.jpg)
Second Aston Martin One-77 teaser video rises from the mist
Laced with shadowy images of details of the upcoming Aston Martin One-77, the company has released their second video teaser for the new supercar. Comparing it to the company's legendary limited production DB4GT Zagato, the One-77 is said to be the "Embodiment of Aston Martin." AM tell us it should feel like it's been tailored to the driver and that it has new technologies, exclusive components and handmade body panels. The talking heads call it a piece of art and then go on to describe how this piece of art will behave, with unbelievable performance, programmable control feedback and an exhaust note beyond compare. As we've reported before, only 77 examples will be built, all powered by a hand-built 7.0-liter V12 capable of pushing the carbon fiber beast from 0-60 in 3.5-seconds, with a top speed north of 200 mph. All for just £1 million... and it's already sold out. The full video is after the jump. Aston Martin promises the next video in January 2009.

whats the point for Aston Martin to produce these videos its not like there are any left to buy nor that these cars are easily available to the public

wtf. the video just autoplays. I was looking around the room to see what that noise was. Now I look like a fool.
Although the One-77 looks nice, I see two easy styling cues picked up from the Corvette; the inlets right under the headlights scream Centennial Concept, and the side vents look like an elongated version of the ZR1's.
Oh also, the vents on the inside crease of the hood remind me of the Invicta Concept. And the hood itself reminds me of a Saturn Sky and a GT-R.
Don't get me wrong. It's a good looking car, though.

I think it's gorgeous and no matter what design elements may have been lifted from elsewhere, that grille shouts out loud, "I'm an Aston Martin".

when that one guy describes how good the car will sound when you start it up gives me goosebumps. This thing is going to sound so awesome i bet, i can only hope i get to see one of these on the road. I know one guy in vancouver who has bought one, so i am just going to sit outside of his house to just see it.

I was thinking the same thing. I can't wait to hear videos of this car...because I am 99% certain I will never see one in person/see one on the street running.

Look, this is a great looking car -- no doubt about that -- and 0-60 in 3.5 seconds is pretty brutal...but this isn't worth $2,000,000. Why should I buy this over a Bugatti Veyron or a 599 GTB or an LP640? Because it's rare? Because it's 'unobtainable'? That's pretty weak. And that's all this car is riding on. Granted, I haven't driven it and the experience may very well be orgasmic...but I sort of doubt it. The people who bought these have the right to spend their money on whatever they like, but to buy something just because it's hideously expensive is pretty stupid.
Just think, for $2,000,000...how many other amazing cars could you afford?
-Bugatti Veyron: $1,400,000
-Ferrari 599GTB: $315,000
-Track-Ready Nissan GTR: +/- $200,000
-Cadillac CTS-V: $59,995
And you could spend the rest on 6-months of insurance...

There's something about an Aston Martin that transcends the raw numbers. The look, the sound, the feel, all these things are more important than track times when you're buying a car in this class. And, if you're going to spend 2 million on a car, you're not really thinking bang for buck.

To be honest these videos are really boring and not inspiring at all.

I REALLY don't appreciate that video just coming on. If I wanted to wake people up I would just turn on the tv.
Don't do that again!

So...I do like this videos!
It explains how a car should be/feel and not how it managed to do 5 min. around the Ring!

The car is ugly. There is no music to the curves.
