A new company called R-Reforged is reviving the rare V12 Zagato – which was first introduced in 2011 and based on the Aston Martin V12 Vantage – to celebrate 60yearsof collaborations between the luxury Italian coachbuilder and and English automotive marque.
Attention, Aston Martin lovers: one of the British brand’s greatest and most exclusive supercars is making a comeback.
They’re officially called the Aston Martin V12 Zagato Heritage Twins because R-Reforged is building both coupe and speedster versions. Only 19 of each will be produced, for a total of 38 vehicles.
All will be expertly assembled by Vynamic GmbH – the same Aston subsidiary that’s working on the 1,160-horsepower Valkyrie hypercar, as Top Gear notes.
Specs and price have yet to be revealed, but they’ll obviously pack a beastly V12 engine, perhaps even the same 580-hp 6. 0-liter found in the original V12 Zagato.
It’s also promised that the pair will «combine the highest craftsmanship with the extraordinary design language of the 1950s and 1960s. »
TheAston Martin V12 Zagato Heritage Twins are due out by year’s end. Head to R-Reforged’s website to inquire.
