Aston Martin V12 Vantage RS

Aston Martin has taken the wraps off of its V12 Vantage RS today at the unveiling of its new design studio. Powered by a 600 horsepower V12 borrowed from the DBRS9 racecar, the 3,500 pound Vantage is said to go from 0-60 in less than four seconds and hit a top speed of 200 mph.

Although technically a concept, it is believed that a version of the car will see limited production sometime next year with a price tag north of the DBS'. The V12 Vantage RS will also have a number of other performance upgrades, such as carbon-ceramic brake rotors.
