Awesome Aston Martin

Introducing the AMVOX2 Transponder Rapide, Jaeger-LeCoultre’s latest watch that costs as much as a car–and unlocks one, too; it doubles as a car key for Aston Martin’s Rapide.

If you’re as enamored as we are over Aston Martin’s Rapide, get ready to swoon over this avalanche of new pictures; the sexy four-door sedan gets a matching quartet of paint jobs.

Aston Martin’s DBS and V12 Vantage Carbon Black are back-to-back black; each sports carbon fiber/Kevlar seats, black leather stitching, and a piano black dash. Thanks, James!

The last of 75 built, the 1963 Aston Martin DB4 GT is the rarest of the rare; it’s one of six converted to aluminum for vintage races and rallies in the late 90s and goes to auction 1/21/10.

Aston Martin’s V12 Vantage debuts at the 24-hour Nurburgring race 5/23; a testament to its race readiness, very little has been changed other than new tires, handling and safety tweaks.

Porsche Panamera, eat your bulbous heart out: Aston Martin’s Rapide tastefully blends “four door” and “sport” with a sexy profile and a 6.0L V12 good for 470bhp and 442 lb-ft of torque.

Naked but safe for work: Autoblog has a titillating set of pics showing the One-77 stripped down and showing its naughty parts; aluminum and carbon fiber never looked so sexy.

James Bond’s coveted ride drops its top with the Aston Martin DBS Volante–just keep your hairpiece on as it gets the DBS’ 6.0L V12; it’ll go 0-62 in 4.3s and tops out at 191 mph.

The V8 gets the boot with Aston Martin’s V12 Vantage, whose 6.0L engine drives 510hp and 420 lb-ft of torque to a carbon fiber driveshaft and 6-speed box; ouch: 0-60 in 4.1s.

Although already sold out, we’re still drooling over these leaked shots of Aston Martin’s One-77 supercar; sweeping air extractors and a huge grille mean this baby’s ready to shred.

Bang & Olufsen’s saucer-shaped speakers (link: BeoLab 5) are now available in the Aston Martin DBS and DB9; each car will have two of these tweeters which retract when not in use.

Jaeger LeCoultre’s AMVOX2 watch is no ordinary timepiece: it acts as a key for the Aston Martin DBS. Encoded by the dealer, pressing the side of the watch’s case starts the DBS’ engine.

Above is a teaser for the Aston Martin One-77: a car so amazing they had to spell out the first number. A carbon-fiber chassis and aluminum body hide a 7.0L V12 that goes 0-60 in 3.5s.
