Aston Martin Cygnet specs

Aston Martin V8 FOS Monster

What a waste of money.

Undoubtedly the best Aston of all time.

I remember this little bad boy! Hahahahahahaha!

I would have to disagree there tech is out of date.

There just not supped up on performance as much as these other companys, sure, they may all look the same, but there not hindered in the pressure of performance, and speed, they still to this day make the most "Beautiful" cars you can buy and offer a connection from the car to you that feels different from anyone else.

But I agree, Paying £400,000 for the V12 Zagato, when you can get a V12 Vantage S for £138,000, is absolutely ridiculous. And I cant find a reason to spend 40k on this either..

You people laugh at Toyota IQ with AM styling and price for over 40K.

But what other Aston cars are? V12 zagato anyone? Which is Vantage v12 with restaled body. AM technology is out of date, and they priced it 3 times more than it should be and people still buy it.

@ Fangio Man: That's a Toyota/Scion IQ wearing an Aston Martin mask to a costume party. :D

So, Aston is building Smarts?! That is...

They took an IQ, restyled the front, rebadged it, and put some throw pillows in the back seat, then charged $44,000 for it, what a ripoff.

it looks like a smart.

@Rockatansky: > At first Porsche made an SUV, now Aston presents this, what's next? A Multipla-based Ferrari minivan?

actually no a jeep grand cherokee based maserati suv (kubang) instead :P

sees this
sees it's an Aston Martin

DOES NOT COMPUTE

Because for it's segment is not that heavy and not that underpowered (against Ferrari California, MB SL63)
The V8 Vantage on the other hand costs about the same as a 911 Turbo but is heavier and has almost 100hp less.
The DBS is also heavier and is 100hp less powerful than its closest competitor, the 599.

But you're right about the One-77, I forgot about that one.

This car makes me wish AM was still owned by a large company like Ford, so they weren't forced to do this. This is the kind of child you keep in the attic and don't tell anyone about. At least they aren't proudly displaying it (haven't personally seen any adverts).

@Mike B: WHere is the logic behind your statement. You say AM's are heavy and under-powered but then say "except the db9." Well, with the exception of the V8 Vantage, the DB9 is Aston Martin's weakest ( and one of their heaviest) cars.

The DB9 makes 470hp. The V12 Vantage and DBS make 510hp, the Virage makes 490hp, the V12 Zagato will make at least 500hp, and the crazy one-77 makes 750hp. Only the V8 Vantage makes less power at 420hp, but it also weighs a decent amount less than the DB9 (almost 400lbs).

SO if you meant what you said about only the DB9 not being heavy and underpowered, then you are essentially saying nearly none of the AM's are as you said.

Now serioulsly, this car is a living joke

How much does this cost in euros?

Don't worry . It's going to SUBZERO or the DB9 fridge

No, Aston makes heavy and underpowerd GTs, well, except for the DB9.

Hang on, aston make superCARS not superMINIS.

Actually it\'s a good way to show that you have Aston in your garage, but you are not \"fcuk fuel economy\" kind of guy. The price is not bad actually - not long ago option ceramic disk brakes cost about 30 grands. Consider this car as item from an option list for real Aston.

\"isnt it cygnet?\"

Yes it is.

isnt it cygnet?

only available to existing Aston customers

They will probably use it as a luxury golf cart...

\"That\'s a good thing. They are preserving the exclusivity of the brand.\"

Noone else would buy this anyway.

only available to existing Aston customers

That\'s a good thing. They are preserving the exclusivity of the brand.

.... and it costs £35,000 and only available to existing Aston customers.....

\"It\'s to comply with some EU emissions law for car manufactures. It\'s similar to CAFE requirements in the US.

These laws won\'t help anyone. Having to develop and build this car will waste more energy than it could save.

At first Porsche made an SUV, now Aston presents this, what\'s next? A Multipla-based Ferrari minivan?

It\'s Cygnet....not Cynget
