The tuner has recently created a unique program on the Aston Martin DB11, which is called “SP610”.

It involves customizations both at the exterior as well as inside. In fact, the technicians from Startech have shifted their attention to interior modifications, setting it apart from the stock model.

The list of interior tweaks are limitless, depending from one customer to another. However, as standard, Startech offers plenty of high-end materials, such as special leather upholstery with different trims and colours. There is also the signature pattern stitching on the doors, seats or floor mats, thus increasing the comfy and more luxurious looks.

In terms of exterior cosmetics, the aftermarket specialists from Startech have created more aggressive styling elements, comprising new front spoiler and rear diffuser, dynamic skirts, as well as the 21-inch Monostar M wheels. All these subtle changes increase the sports car`s mean attitude.

As for the power under the hood, the Aston Martin DB11 has also received a slight power output. However, the power upgrade was provided by Brabus. The V8 variant with its 4.0-liter AMG engine is now churning out no less than 610 horsepower and 800 Nm of torque, enabling a sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3,8 seconds. The impressive sprint is also achieved by the top speed of 310 km/h.

Startech is also likely to take on the V12 version, announcing an impressive power upgrade as well. To make an idea of the new future output, you are advised to review the V12`s main mechanic characteristics and power figures which are listed below. We will be back with new details.

The sports car is so rare that only five models will be ever produced.

The Aston Martin DB11 not only shares the good-looks of the standard DB9, but adds a more versatile visual approach. The unique design and pure elegancy is complemented by a powerful engine and the latest technology inside.

The Aston Martin DB11 Vengeance shares the DB9`s 5.9-liter V12 with an outrageous 517 horsepower. As expected, the performance figures are not known at the moment.

Inside, the Kahn`s Aston Martin DB11 Vengeance features the latest technological tweaks, like satellite navigation, Bluetooth connectivity, climate control, parking add, cruise control heated and electrically adjustable driver / passenger seats, garage door opener and more.

From a visual standpoint, the Aston Martin DB11 Vengeance is now meaner and more aggressive, with the custom spaced grille, wider and also sleeker and can be seen as a real eye-catcher. The overall design is complemented by the wide wheels. Unfortunately, the tuner has not yet revealed the price tag.

A handful of photos have been also added below, enjoy the sight and don’t forget that your opinion does count!

Aston Martin V12 Vantage S Upgrades by Q Division https://www.carztuning.com/2015/12/aston-martin-v12-vantage-s-upgrades-q-division/ https://www.carztuning.com/2015/12/aston-martin-v12-vantage-s-upgrades-q-division/#respond Wed, 16 Dec 2015 15:49:34 +0000 http://www.carztuning.com/?p=6531 Every model from Aston Martin is a celebration of speed, exquisite design and extraordinary stance, but in the hands of the carmaker`s special Q division, each one becomes something out of the ordinary.

This Aston Martin V12 Vantage S has received the blessing of the Q department, the model being fitted with the China grey body wrap, along with a remarkable aero kit.

As we can see from the pictures revealed by Q, the Aston Martin V12 Vantage S features a plethora of body tweaks, like the front lip with the red-tinted carbon fiber accents, grille surround, side vents and hood, mirror caps and rear diffuser.

Inside, the specialists from Q division have also fitted the cabin with the same red-tinted accents on the center console, doors or paddle shifters.

We are not sure if the engine has also received any upgrades, but in the stock version, the Aston Martin V12 Vantage packs a massive 6.2-liter AM28 V12 engine, with impressive 573 horsepower and 510 Nm of torque, hooked to a Sportshift III hydraulically automated manual transmission.

Apart the aforementioned body parts, the aftermarket specialists from Hamann have also installed a modified sport exhaust system with a stainless center pipe and flap control, which raises the power by up to 20 horsepower. Unfortunately, the tuner has not revealed any performance figures.

As a reminder, Aston Martin Vantage has partnered Mercedes-Benz in order to provide its models with extremely powerful engines under the hood.

We are talking about the 4.0-liter V8 twin turbo unit, also seen on the AMG GT or the fresh C63 AMG.

The new Vantage`s engine lineup will be completed with the 6.0-liter V12 twin turbo engine. The tuner has also launched a bunch of photos with their latest project, enjoy and don`t forget to share your opinions with us!

Aston Martin DB9 on Forgiato Wheels https://www.carztuning.com/2015/10/aston-martin-db9-forgiato-wheels/ https://www.carztuning.com/2015/10/aston-martin-db9-forgiato-wheels/#respond Wed, 21 Oct 2015 12:58:48 +0000 http://www.carztuning.com/?p=5638 The Forgiato Wheels tuning company is one of those aftermarket shops that deliver exquisite and standout wheels, which perfectly complement the body style of some hot rides.

Lately, the tuner has fitted this black Aston Martin DB9 with their newest set of wheels. We are talking here about the 20-inch monoblock Maglia wheels, all finished in candy red and which provide the model a more stand-out feel and look.

Some of you might hate the wheel wrap and others might find it quite sexy or exotic. I personally consider that it looks extremely hot and quite menacing and it should be able to attract a lot of curious eyes while cruising the streets of a busy city.

The DB9 is perhaps the most iconic model from Aston Martin. Unfortunately, the carmaker will discontinue the sports car in 2016, making room for a more powerful version.

But the Aston Martin DB9 is an extremely powerful model as well, packing the new AM11 V12 engine, which develops 517 horsepower and 620 Nm of torque. This would be enough to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.6 seconds.

Enjoy the photo gallery with the Aston Martin rDB8 sitting on Forgiato Wheels and don’t forget to share your opinions with us!

We are talking here about a project signed by the Q division from Aston Martin, the project involving seven cars, out of which one of them was built for a German businessman, named Markus Storck. The result is an astonishing look and gorgeous body language.

But how does the model stand out from the crowd? First off, the Q team from Aston Martin have fitted the model with the Jet Black exterior finish a long with some extensive carbon fiber composites, while the Aston Martin badges are found both outside as well as inside.

Second, the cabin is also wrapped with the One of Seven logos into the head restrains, diamond quilted seats and other high-end materials which make it really unique. Unfortunately, no upgrades have been carried out under the hood.

This means that we will find the same massive 5.9-liter V12 engine, which develops 568 horsepower and 630 Nm of torque, hooked to the 6-speed Touchtronic2 automatic transmission or the optional 8-speed Touchtronic3 automatic. This would be enough to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.7 seconds. No news on the price tag for each of the Aston Martin Vanquish One of Seven models.
