Post 6 Aston Martin One-77 units will come to the U.S.

Don’t ever expect to pull up to an Aston Martin One-77 at a red light. According to AutoCar, of the 77 units being made of the very exclusive Aston Martin, only six will come to the U.S. while five will be allocated for the UK. Where is most of the allocation going to end up? We’re going to just take a wild guess and say Dubai.

“The engine is a magnificent piece of work,” says Aston CEO Dr. Ulrich Bez. So far all we know that the 3,300 lbs. Aston One-77 will carry a 7.0L V12 that makes 700-hp with a maximum torque of 520 lb-ft. 0 to 60 figures are yet to be revealed but top speed will come in well over 200 mph.

“It’s not all about power or being in a performance race with Bugatti,” said Aston CEO Dr. Ulrich Bez. “It’s a fabulous, hand-built car that’s the pinnacle of what Aston Martin can achieve.”

Why does it surprise you? The dollar is weak, the economy is weak, and even the upper class is careful about what it spends its money on.

The air scoops in the bumper in front of the wheels look terrible... If I were rich, and didn't care about preserving the car, I'd have the front bumper molded with the fenders and get rid of the scoops.

I wonder who the six owners will be?
