At first glance, this is just a limited edition coupe, chassis number
50413 in fact - and that is exactly what you are supposed to think. But
close inspection shows a revised front air dam and bespoke larger diameter
six spoke alloy wheels. The owner, dissatisfied with the 349 bhp of the
standard car first took it to RS Williams to have the engine taken out to
7 litres capacity. Still dissatisfied, the car went to Lynx Motors International who in an
effort to produce more power added a turbocharger. Of course, the
suspension, 4 speed automatic transmission and brakes were also uprated.
Now you may need to sit down as the result is
possibly the most powerful road going Aston Martin ever. Would you believe
with the boost turned up to maximum 14 psi, this Aston Martin produces 720
bhp. What is more, the peak tourque figure is 1090 lb ft @ 3500 rpm -
compare this to the Vantage V600's figure of 600lb ft @ 4000 rpm.
