Meet the Aston Martin V12 Vantage.

Time to smash open that piggy bank. Aston Martin has announced pricing for its long anticipated V12 Vantage, and it starts at $179,995, with the Carbon Black Special Edition priced at $194,995.

Top speed on this baby, which has Aston Martin’s most powerful engine, is 190 mph and it boasts a 0-60 mph time of 4.1 seconds. It’s also the most agile model, with a six-speed transmission, carbon ceramic brakes and revised suspension. The Carbon Black Special Edition features Carbon Black metallic body paint (hand applied over the course of 50 painstaking hours), Obsidian black leather interiors with silver stitching (also done by hand), gloss-black 10-spoke diamond-turned alloy wheels, and front parking sensors. The normally optional Aston Martin 700-watt Premium Audio System is standard. The V12 Vantage is available to order now for delivery in Fall 2010. For more information, visit astonmartin.com.
