‘Q by Aston Martin’ bringing unique creations to Monterey
Filed under: Convertible, Coupe, Performance, Aston Martin, Luxury
Want an Aston Martin unlike any other on the road? You’ll need to look to Q, and no, we’re not talking about the inimitable Desmond Llewelyn. No, we’re referring to Aston’s in-house customization shop, a one-stop destination that can set your Vantage or Vanquish even further apart from every other vehicle on the road.
Aston Martin is bringing four new Q-customized cars to next week’s festivities in scenic Monterey, CA, covering the gamut of the brand’s portfolio. At the lead is the Aston Martin flagship, the hardtop Vanquish. Finished in an eye-catching – and decidedly un-Aston-like – Abor Orange, the Vanquish boasts unique carbon fiber work, with a twill that’s twice the size of your average CF. Inside, a new print has been emblazoned on the Obsidian Black leather, which Aston says is styled after the helix of a carbon molecule.
For those who want to stand out and experience the wind in their hair, Q is also bringing out a pair of Aston Martin’s Volante variants. The Vanquish Volante wears Frosted Silver paint, 10-spoke alloys and a Chestnut Tan interior. The DB9 Volante, meanwhile, sports perhaps the oddest style of this quartet, with Ashen Blonde exterior paint and, um, a pink interior. It’s actually called Blush Pearl, and it’s complemented by Piano Ice Mocha on the center stack.
Finally, Q has turned its eye on the V12 Vantage S, decking it out in amethyst paint with a Monterey Pearl grille. The cabin sports the same Obsidian Black leather found on the Q-fettled Vanquish, but rather than the helix design, the Vantage S sports bold, Vivid Purple leather accents. The contrasting bits include the seat stripe, headliner, portions of the steering wheel finish and glove box liners.
