When Aston Martin introduced the DBS 770 Ultimate back in January, it also announced a convertible version but only showed the coupe. The Gaydon-based luxury brand is now filling in the blanks by unveiling the drop-dead gorgeous Volante with its unlimited headroom. It's the rarer of the two body styles since only 199 will be produced whereas the model with the fixed roof is getting 300 copies.
We rarely have the opportunity to say this about a new car, but there's no such thing as a bad angle on this stunner. While looks are subjective, no one can deny it's the most powerful Aston Martin road car ever. Indeed, it uses an uprated 5.2-liter V12 with 770 PS (hence the name), which works out to 759 horsepower. The twin-turbo beast delivers a massive 664 pound-feet (900 Newton-meters) of torque from just 1,800 rpm for effortless cruising.
