When developing Vanquish, the brief was to create a flagship with crushing capability; a super GT sports car that felt effortlessly relaxing and secure on long drives, says Aston Martin.
“Vanquish makes an emphatic statement,” said Stroll. “One that further delivers on our mission to create the most potent, most beautiful and most exciting cars in the ultra-luxury sports car market. As such, Vanquish is the truest of Aston Martins. Immaculately designed and impeccably engineered, it sets extraordinary new standards of performance, style and luxury for a new generation of connoisseurs”.

At the very least, you ought to respect that streak of rebelliousness, especially when the product looks as gorgeous as this exceedingly elegant two-seater flaunting a certain Grace Kelly-esque poise; one that joyfully does little to quell the dynamic sensibility that speaks to its power.
