First Drive: Aston Martin V12 Zagato
The A to Z Exotic.Half a million dollars (330,000 British pounds). Plus options, like non-standard paint and bespoke leather. Plus a place on the waiting list, one of 101. Not to mention the guts it takes to be seen in the most extroverted Aston Martin ever built, and to drive such a precious and rare commodity. Is the Aston Martin V12 Zagato a silly proposition? Not at all. The way things are going in the crazy collector-car arena, the limited-edition Zagato likely will depreciate much more slowly over the next few years than the Vantage V12 on which it's based. More to the point, the Zagato is an even more raw and rare driving experience. It may not be outright beautiful by conventional standards, but it does look breathtakingly different: the radically aggressive, big-mouth front end vacates fast lanes more promptly than a cop car with siren wailing and lights blazing. The sculptured rear with the oversize spoiler and the eyeball taillights has "I was born on the Nordschleife" written all over it. Then there's the soundtrack, which is guaranteed to raise goose bumps on your forearms.
