"Aston Martin unveiled the production version of its most potent and focused car at Geneva. This new car combines the compact 2-seat dimensions with the power of the company&amp;#039;s 5.9-liter V-12 \u2014 to the tune of 510 bhp and 420 lb.-ft. of torque. Aston is predicting a 190 mph top speed, along with 0\u201362 mph (100 km/h) dispatched in a scant 4.2 seconds.   Designed for the focused driver, every component of the V-12 Vantage has been honed with pure driving enjoyment in mind. Benefiting from race-developed materials and components, and featuring lightweight carbon fiber, this latest Vantage has been tuned to perfection.   Although the V-12 engine weighs 220 lb. more than the standard car&amp;#039;s V-8, carbon-ceramic brakes, lighter forged aluminium wheels, lightweight inner rear quarter panels and optional lightweight seats have resulted in the overall curb weight that&amp;#039;s only 110 lb. heavier than its V-8 sibling&amp;#039;s. And the weight distribution is near perfect, at 51/49 front/rear.   chief executive officer, Dr. Ulrich Bez, said: &amp;quot;This is the ultimate performance interpretation of the Vantage range, combining our most agile model with our most powerful engine. It represents the definitive driving package; providing spectacular performance to ensure a dynamically thrilling and everyday useable driving experience.&amp;quot; Bez went on to say that the V-12 Vantage has &amp;quot;a unique character, unlike our other cars. This will appeal to different people with different tastes, allowing more people to enjoy the Aston Martin experience.&amp;quot;   &amp;quot;More&amp;quot; has to be taken with a pinch of salt, as Aston only expects to build 300\u2013500 examples a year at its Gaydon factory. Deliveries will begin this fall. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
