The supposed tussle for the bragging rights of being a marquee super sports car is turning out to be a no-brainer. The svelte 2010 Aston Martin One-77 has brought the lofty standards of exotic fast cars several notches higher. Earning the moniker "definitive sports car," this Aston masterpiece is a top-heavy head turner. The One-77 retains the enduring tradition of Aston for cutting-edge technology, attention to detail and exquisite craftsmanship. The inspiration and power behind the Aston Martin One-77 is also the culmination of the pursuit for perfection, delivering the level of performance eclipsing the norms set by its older Aston Martin siblings.
Its grand entry has created quite a stir, easily leaving an indelible mark that is hard to match for many years to come. With a price tag of £1,200,000, this One-77 exotic fast car is the hands-down show-stopper, breaking barriers with its revolutionary mix of aluminum body and super strong carbon fiber framework. This Aston Martin roadster easily reaches a dizzying speed of 60 mph well within 3.5 seconds and hits a top speed of 220 mph / 354 km/h. While this may form part of the typical sound bite for this quintessential Aston Martin masterpiece, you can expect that we are getting a bagful of tricks and treats that will surely leave its closest pursuers drooling with envy.
The technical supremacy that is defined by the stellar demonstration of unparalleled engineering design expertise is definitely not skin deep, as we are expected to find the familiar "wow-factor" underneath its exquisite body frame. Of course, the heart of its amazing features is its powerhouse engine that redefines the overall performance standards of speedsters under the front-engine rear wheel car category, including those that belong to the DTM race car series.
The performance level of a race car is infused into the overall design of One-77. Aston Martin engineers have employed the classic design of dual wishbone for each corner of the two-seater speedster and features front and rear inboard suspension assembly with pushrods. This intricate suspension system effectively transfers the inertial movement from the vertical suspension assembly to the horizontally-mounted damper units. The main advantage of this special design concept for the inboard suspension is the significant reduction in the "un-sprung" weight and the solid packaging of the suspension assembly.
The dampers in the Aston Martin One-77 are completely adjustable and features the proprietary DSSV (Dynamic Suspension Spool Valve) technology; which marks the first time this application is ever applied in road cars. In fact, this valve configuration is considered top-end even in car racing standards. This revolutionary application makes use of high-precision machine-molded components that provides for an easy modification of shock-absorbing capabilities of the dampers without the need of removing the said assembly from the car, which is the usual norm. With the distinct character of the Aston Martin One-77, once it is transferred to its owner, Aston Martin engineers shall reconfigure the suspension specs to match their driving requirements.
Industry-leading efficiency and functionality in the design and development of this latest offering from Aston Martin is already a given, and the aesthetic appeal is definitely not far behind. The Aston Martin engineers went the extra mile to ensure that every single component of this super sports car is finely crafted with extreme precision using top-end materials. Aston Martin has left no stone unturned in weaving its magic in creating an exceptional and top-performing roadster. The Aston Martin One-77 takes the challenge to a higher plane with its cutting-edge rolling chassis hailed by experts as an automotive masterpiece.
This Aston speedster scores big points with its exceptional drive-train. This comes as a sturdy naturally-aspirated 7.3-litre V12 engine. This Aston Martin masterpiece boasts of lower center-of-gravity compared to its predecessors. This is made possible by the lower mounting of its engine by 100 mm as a result of the application of the dry-sump type of oil system. The One-77 also scores high when it comes to road-handling and agility. This distinct edge by the Aston Martin speedster is achieved through the mounting of the engine by about 257 mm astern in relation to the centerline of the front wheel assembly.
While the big story about the Aston Martin One-77 are mostly about the exquisite components that are all hidden from the public eye, yet you are assured that every component is the handiwork full of passion and commitment to perfection. Indeed, the Aston Martin One-77 is a cut above the rest, and it deserves its billing as the "definitive sports car."
