Aston Martin (http://www.autoblog.com/aston martin/) is marking its 100th anniversary with special edition versions of its V8 Vantage (http://www.autoblog.com/aston+martin/v8+vantage/), DB9 (http://www.autoblog.com/aston+martin/db9/), Rapide (http://www.autoblog.com/aston+martin/rapide/) and Vanquish (http://www.autoblog.com/aston+martin/vanquish/). The automaker will only build 100 Centenary Edition versions of each car. The first of those is the Vanquish, which boasts a special graduated paint finish and sterling silver badges with a unique enamel inlay. Indoors, buyers can expect to find the same Deep Soft leather as used in the One-77 (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/one77/), complete with contrast silver stitching and sterling silver sill plates bearing the car's individual number.

Those who pony up the cash for the Centenary models will also receive a box packed full of exclusive "gifts," including two glass keys, bespoke key pouches, silver cuff links, a silver Rollerball pen and a pair of Bang & Olufsen headphones. There's a silver polishing cloth in there as well. Near as we can tell, the Centenary Editions will remain mechanically identical to their non-bejeweled counterparts. You can check out the full press release below (http://motorgen.com/2013/01/15/aston-martin-celebrates-milestone-with-centenary-vanquish/#continued) and take a look at a slew of special models from the company's first 100 years in the gallery.Continue reading Aston Martin celebrates milestone with Centenary Vanquish (http://www.autoblog.com/2013/01/16/aston-martin-celebrates-milestone-with-centenary-vanquish/)
