It&#8217;s probably the coolest Aston Martin I&#8217;ve ever seen. Aston Martins have some of my favorite designs, but Zagato really pushed this to the next level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.benlevy.com\/auto\/2022\/irongatemotorcondos20220709\/iron_gate_chrome_coffee_5068.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Front of Red Aston Martin Vanquish Zagato<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Only 99 of these coup\u00e9s were made. Shooting brake, convertible, and speedster versions also exist, but I think the coup\u00e9 is the real looker. The double bouble roof and blade tail lights add to the bespoke look of the car, but the Zagago symbol sewn into the seats is the boldest design element in my eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.benlevy.com\/auto\/2022\/irongatemotorcondos20220709\/iron_gate_chrome_coffee_5070.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Front Fender on Red Aston Martin Vanquish Zagato<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.benlevy.com\/auto\/2022\/irongatemotorcondos20220709\/iron_gate_chrome_coffee_5078.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Z Stitching on Aston Martin Vanquish Zagato<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.benlevy.com\/auto\/2022\/irongatemotorcondos20220709\/iron_gate_chrome_coffee_5088.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">&#8216;Blade&#8217; Tail Light on Red Aston Martin Vanquish Zagato<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Vanquish has plenty of power thanks to the V12 engine it shares with the Vanquish S. The exposed carbon fiber of the aero package hints at the aerodynamic upgrades on this car. All the body panels on the cars are carbon fiber too. If I could only have one Aston Martin, this might be what I&#8217;d choose.
