Aston Martin Vantage GT3: Specs, Equipment

 »  »  »

Aston Martin premiered at this year's Geneva Motor Show the new Vantage GT3, which is basically the most powerful and uncompromising one ever built. The Aston Martin Vantage GT3 is powered by a 6.0-liter V12 engine that develops 600 hp and 625 Nm of torque. The power is sent to the rear wheels via a 7-speed automated manual transmission. Aston's official specs say that the Vantage GT3 is able to accelerate from naught to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 3.7 seconds and it is capable of reaching a top speed of 185 mph (297 km/h). As you can clearly see in these images, the Aston Vantage GT3 comes with wider fenders, new side skirts, a front splitter, a modified hood, new bumpers, a rear diffuser and a massive rear wing. All these enhancement help increase the downforce generated by the supercar.

All of these body parts are made of carbon fiber. The Aston Martin Vantage GT3 is also equipped with 19-inch alloys, ceramic coated tailpipes, a track-tuned suspension, revised springs and dampers, and a modified Adaptive Damping System with three different modes: Normal, Sport and Track. Other performance upgrades include a titanium exhaust system, magnesium inlet manifolds and torque tube, a carbon fiber propeller shaft, a limited-slip differential and Brembo ceramic brakes. At the interior, the Aston Vantage GT3 features a carbon fiber center console with touch-sensitive controls, carbon seats, an Alcantara steering wheel, and an infotainment system.

Aston Martin says that all these upgrades manage to reduce the weight of the regular Vantage by 100 kg.

The Aston Martin Vantage GT3's price has not been disclosed yet, but the carmaker says it will produce just 100 of them.
