Presented in May 2011 at the Concours d'Elegance in Villa d'Este, the Aston Martin V12 Zagato was a model used in competitions, built on the basis of the Vantage and equipped with the engine of the DB9. The style was the result of a close collaboration between Norihiko Harada (Zagato) and Marek Reichman. The production initially planned for 101 units, stopped after 65 cars.
