Aston Martin CEO Lawrence Stroll said in a media roundtable Thursday the overwhelmingly positive response to the limited-edition $2 million Valour was "insane." The 110-car production run sold out very quickly, and as Stroll noted, is 10 times oversubscribed. Inspired by the one-off Victor—itself a tribute to Aston models of the 1970s and 1980s—the Valour is based on the outgoing Vantage and sports a 705-horsepower V-12 and a six-speed manual. Stroll thinks the manual is a huge part of its success.
