This stunning beast is the Aston Martin V12 Zagato, unveiled here for the first time in production format ahead of its Frankfurt Motor Show debut.
It will cost £330,000 (plus VAT) and only 150 will be made.
Its launch follows the unveiling of the racing version at the Villa d'Este concours in Italy, and it's made to celebrate 50 years since the highly amazing DB4GT Zagato.
Built on the chassis of a V12 Vantage, the custom body is a carbon fibre and aluminium composite - and that's pretty much what you're paying for, because the 510bhp 6.0-litre V12 stays the same.
Summer 2012 will see the first ones made.
