11,000rpm Aston Martin Valkyrie Spider: Better Than The £2.5million V12 hard-top? | Top Gear

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Great news for all those who put a deposit down on Aston’s £2.5million hard-topped hypercar… only to realise they couldn’t fit into Adrian Newey’s snug cabin - it’s the new Aston Martin Valkyrie Spider.
Even though it may seem at odds with the aero-obsessed design, might it be a better bet than the Coupe? We sent Top Gear Magazine’s Editor Jack Rix to investigate. Subscribe to Top Gear for more videos: bit.ly/SubscribeToTopGear

    Why does exclusivity exist in the hyper car world? Why not make it were anyone who wants it can buy it? That would prevent hoarding and keeping these machines in garages. Make them not exclusive, that way the development money gone into this will be a little bit payed off there is no point of this exclusivity crap. Reason being this thing is gonna cost $7,000,000+ right off on the off the allocated list market. Aston Martin isn’t making that money but some scalper or flipper is! They should not make this ultimate expression of the internal combustion engine exclusive it isn’t diluting the car but rather making it sure that these things will be driven and we will see them out more. That gives more respect to the amount of effort it was given to this project. 100 units or 150 units is far far too low we will never see these things out and about what’s the point of it then? You might think this is a foolish statement but exclusive cars never get driven and are pointlessly kept away!

    Come on, imagine looking at that in a garage every day. There's a satisfaction just from having it. I don't think this thing needs any "cruising" or practical justification at all. Just enjoy having it, enjoy looking at it, maybe flash it at some big shows or meetups every once in a while, and of course work it out on the track to keep the ownership experience alive. I actually like that idea. I share the Chris Harris view and don't really get dailying modern supercars since they're too fast to even push 25% on public roads, yet on a track might as well just have a GT3 car if you've got that kind of cash. But this car... it's rare because it actually holds up in visceral experience and authenticity to any race car on the track due to its pure, inspired roots.
