The Aston Martin Zagato V12 Vantage has won the Concorso d'Eleganza Design Award for Concept Cars and Prototypes in Italy this weekend, and in case you are not aware of it, the car represents a celebration of the 50th anniversary of the DB4GT Zagato.
The Aston Martin Zagato V12 was declared the winner among 10 entries from around the world, and Dr Ulrich Bez, CEO of Aston Martin, said that "Based on the reactions of our customers to this race car, we hope to offer a road-homologated V12 Zagato in a small, limited number as soon as possible. First feedback has been great so far, this makes us confident that this new Aston Martin V12 Zagato will be a winner of the classic car vote at Villa D'Este in fifty years time."
We will see the V12 Zagato in action on May 28th when the car will have its racing debut at the Nurburgring, but until then we have a video that offers a sample of how the 510 bhp 6.0-litre engine from under its skin sounds like.
