"It's a good time to be a fan of extreme track racers these days, as after the LaFerrari FXX K and McLaren's P1 GTR, Aston Martin is jumping on the bandwagon with their new Vulcan..."

Cool car. Didn't see a msrp. Said it was undisclosed.

it will set you back $2.3 mil. and only 24 will be produced

There are rumours and Andy Palmer says they will make a decision this winter whether they will build a road going version

here is a video at Goodwood

It's still an Aston Martin = over priced POS, doomed to break and fail. Pretty, but still an Aston. How they are still alive is beyond me.

I love that car. Looks insane but not ridiculous. Sounds incredible. If I had endless piles of cash and I didn't need some to keep the fire burning in winter, I'd take one. All this amazing CF work bodes well for Ford GT since Multimatic constructs the Vulcan too.

Looks like something StormCat dreamed up.

Looks pretty polished for a "prototype". Way cool car. Not sure I dig the Knight Rider/Batmobile steering wheel, though.

Been around for a while hasn't it? It was at the NYC auto show in April. Looks like something a teenage X box player would design

Beautiful car with an awesome engine song. I'll take mine without the wing. Steering wheel would never make production.

I'm trying to discern the reason for the divider between the driver and passenger areas -

Ralphie, I think it's kind of like a buttress and hand hold. The Jaguars have the same thing only smaller.
