Aston Martin Vanquish 25
The original Vanquish debuted at the 2001 Geneva Motor Show. Within a year, it was James Bond's car in Die Another Day, where Q's fictional cloaking device earned it the nickname "the Vanish." Twenty-five years later, Aston Martin's bespoke Q division has built a limited run to mark the anniversary. Only 50 examples exist worldwide, split evenly between coupe and Volante body styles. Each is hand-finished with details pulled from that original car: Q Skye Silver paintwork, metal foil detailing on the sills and shield vanes, stainless steel side strakes, and 21-inch forged wheels with a subtle "V" highlight. Inside, the seatbacks carry an embroidered "Vanquish 25" logo, the trim is laser-etched, and the headlining is black Alcantara, with a choice of Onyx Black, Oxford Tan, or Phantom Grey. Both are built on the current Vanquish platform: a 5.2-liter twin-turbo V12 producing 835PS and 1000Nm of torque, good for 214mph and 0-62 mph in 3.3 seconds. The 2001 original topped out around 190mph; a quarter-century later, the car built to honor it is the fastest Vanquish Aston Martin has ever made.
