    Aston Martin AM-RB 001

    Aston and Red Bull/Newey supercar. (Just) powered by an NA V12. No turbos or hybrid.







    Hard to tell from those images, but apparently, it's very very small, like hip-height.

    Two seater apparently, but I bet it's very tight in there.

    100-150 to be sold. There will be a "track version" as well, but not sure if that's counted in those numbers.

    Reckon i might see one down here then. The owner of Highlands Motorsport Park (3 hours west) owns the Southern Hemisphere's (?) only Aston Martin Vulcan, and it lives at that track i think.

    Glad to see it's not just another design concept though, those are getting boring. 'Oh hey, here's a bloody nice car for you to dream about. We're never putting it into production though, haha'. Looking at you, Jaguar C-X75.

    Looking at the front there doesn't seem to be a whole lot under the car. I wonder if this is one of their old LMP1 tubs with bodywork stuck on top of it.

    Well, they said it was designed by Newey, but not the body, so that would imply that Newey designed a whole new chassis. I think that's even more open than anything outside of a late Group C car.
