OMG - One-77

This is at our dealer for the next few days and I stopped in the check it out for a bit. It's a prototype car that's travelling around a bit.

There are so many little details on this car that make it amazing. The carbon fiber work is unbelievable.

Doesn't look prototype to me....looks like a standard 1-77.

It was strange. Everyone said it was a prototype.

If you look closely at some of the details, it is different from all of the other One-77 I have seen:

Engine Bay
Rear "Trunk"
Navigation Screen (can't be seen in these photos)
Etc.

It was numbered 25 of 77, though. Nobody could explain why.

No idea, I'm afraid. It will be at Aston Martin Long Island until Saturday. We received an email from the dealer letting us know it was going to be there.

This is what the email, brianja is referring to, read:
"The One-77 on display at AMLI is the only one in the United States and is a final pre-production engineering development car which has covered some 14,000 miles incorporating extensive endurance testing at Nardo in Italy and the Nurburgring in Germany"

Nice pics, thanks for sharing and a great experience for you. Should have asked for an extended test drive.

It's simply beautiful but what I don't like about this car is the lack of luggage space.

Yes, that's why I didn't buy one.

Someone has done an amazing job removing 14,000 miles of dirt and stone chips from the car
