The Super Sport is a mid-engine engine sports car with a “supercar” look powered by a twin-turbocharged 5.4 liter V8 engine producing from 800hp up to 950bhp. The power is transferred to the wheels by a six-speed manual transaxle, fully synchronized with an integral, torque-sensing, helical limited-slip differential. If requested a F1 paddle shift gearbox is available.

The exhaust system is powder coated. The brake system includes Brembo or AP carbon ceramic brakes. The Aston Martin re-build is only available in left-hand drive and has a carbon fiber body.

2008 Aston Martin DBS

The new Aston Martin DBS is one of the first Aston Martin's that has caught my eyebecause all others remind me of Pierce Brosnan, don't know why but I despise him, he ruined the James Bond series. Any way the new DBS looks one of a kind to me, it comes with good power, and good 510 hp. Without any turbo's by the way. Aston Martin also known for handles the DBS is like never before, with new aerodynamics and evened out power gear after gear apparently makes the turns much tighter and cleaner than before. Look out for it on September 16th.

Aston Martin N400 Roadster

It's all abou the sound of the engine in the new Aston Martin N400 roadster. With the roof down, at 4,000 rpm you reach what appears to be the most favorable feeling in the world "Nirvana". At this point at the exhuast baffles up more, rather than the V8 burbling away, it takes on a much harder edge. Thank goodness the engine has a lovely singing voice.

The N400 is a limited-edition car with only 240 built and now completely sold out, but you might still be able to get the odd one at one of the dealers. It gets the same rather naff Nürburgring map stitched into the leather on the interior ,and also gets the sports suspension option that appears on the Vantage face-lift.

What's really impressive though about this is, that it doesn't ruin the ride. There's still a suppleness here that's surprising in a roadster, which means that scuttle shake also never becomes a problem.

Other than the slightly notchy gear change, the driving experience is incredible, it really is surprising how pointy and directional the N400 feels. All of which means that concentrating on the noise becomes pretty much the only thing you need concern yourself with.
