Aston Martin Works revealed towards the end of last week the Vanquish 60th Anniversary special edition. This is the first of six models to bare the name Aston Martin Vanquish 60th Anniversary. Each of them is meant to celebrate one of the decades of the carmaker's history. The Vanquish 60th Anniversary models are going to distinguish themselves through trim and paint. One of their most distinctive features includes the bespoke rotaries around the major controls in the center console. Each control is forged from the metal that, previously, had formed a piston in an Aston Martin engine of the relevant period. The engines used include the following: 1955-1965 DB 2/4 Mk II saloon, 1965-1975 DB5, 1975-1985 V8 Coupe, 1985-1995 V8 Vantage X-pack, 1995-2005 V8 Vantage supercharged, 2005-2015 Original Vanquish.
The Aston Martin Vanquish 60th Anniversary is powered by a 6.0-liter V12 engine that puts out 568 bhp and 630 Nm of torque. With this engine, the 60th Anniversary Vanquish is able to accelerate from zero to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 3.6 seconds. Aston did not disclose the price list of the Vanquish 60th Anniversary.
