 * On December 18, 2009, Aston Martin announced the V12 Vantage Carbon Black. The limited edition model features a bespoke Carbon Black metallic finish that takes 50 man-hours of hand painting and quality checks to complete. It is also set apart from the ordinary V12 Vantage with gloss black 10 spoke diamond turned alloy wheels, carbon fiber side strake over a black mesh vent, a bright finished grille and front parking sensors. Inside, the interior is swathed in Obsidian Black leather contrasted by hand stitched silver thread while the sport seats are formed from Carbon Fibre and Kevlar (saving 17 kg or 37 lb). Other interior niceties include Piano black facia trim, centre stack and centre console, anodised black tread plates, unique carbon fibre sill plaques and 700w Premium Audio System. There is no word yet on the pricing but Aston Martin has said that buyers should expect a 5 per cent increase over the price of the basic models. Deliveries will commence from March.
