Nov. 12, 2024, Las Vegas: Ahead of the highly anticipated Formula 1® Heineken Silver Las Vegas Grand Prix, Aston Martin will celebrate the pedigree of performance and British ultra-luxury craftsmanship with an unforgettable collection of notable models – ranging from iconic on-screen stars to its most potent V12 flagship ever, the recently revealed Vanquish V12 flagship and the AMR24 Formula 1® challenger – publicly displayed throughout select locations at Fontainebleau Las Vegas now through November 25.
More than 20 vehicles showcasing Aston Martin’s high-performance products and notable heritage worth more than $18 million will be on exhibit across Levels 1 and 2 of Fontainebleau Las Vegas. The lavish display will also culminate with the North American debut of the DB12 Goldfinger Edition, a strictly limited-production vehicle crafted by the ultra-luxury marque’s bespoke personalization service, Q by Aston Martin, in celebration of 60 years of the iconic association between Aston Martin and the James Bond film franchise.
The British Bloodline exhibit is unmatched and represents the largest automotive display to-date at Fontainebleau Las Vegas. The display, curated by Aston Martin and Hagerty, whose renowned classic-car experts have assisted with procuring the heritage lineup, will reflect the timeless appeal of Aston Martin alongside today’s most coveted vehicles, which include:
2025 Vanquish. This new V12 flagship features a brand new front mid-mounted 5.2-liter twin-turbo V12 engine that delivers unmatched performance within its category.
2025 Vantage. With a nameplate ravished in racing royalty and 30% more power than its predecessor, this two-seater stands as a symbol to thrill seekers.
2025 DB12. The latest evolution in the DB lineage redefines what it means to be a tourer, reaching new heights of driver connection, performance and driver supremacy.
2025 DB12 Goldfinger Edition. Q by Aston Martin lavishes the Super Tourer with the ‘007 treatment’ in the form of subtle touches from the Goldfinger film to commemorate 60 years since the legendary partnership in cinematic history began. The exterior features Silver Birch paint, bespoke gold side strakes, and a bright chrome ‘Q’ fender badge, while the interior includes an intricate perforation pattern as a nod to James Bond’s classic suiting, and an ‘eight of hearts’ embroidered into the drivers’ sun visor, a nod to the playing card seen in the last draw during the famous Miami pool scene in Goldfinger.
2025 DBX707. The supercar of SUVs has a new technically advanced interior to match its uncompromising performance.
2024 Valkyrie AMR Pro. The ultimate hypercar with a radical design, inspiring the Valkyrie Le Mans racer with a V12 powertrain and power output of 1000HP
1964 Aston Martin DB5 Stunt Car Replica. One of eight exclusively built and engineered by Aston Martin for No Time To Die, with each car uniquely modified for its individual role on screen.
AMR24 Formula 1® challenger. This is the first vehicle to be designed and built at the state-of-the-art Technology Campus. It has been designed to provide the perfect platform for in-season development as Aston Martin continues its relentless pursuit of progress.
1952 DB2. The beauty, performance, handling and quality of the DB2 established the Aston Martin character for the post-war generation, realizing then-owner, David Brown’s vision for the company. With an all-new design, the DB2 made its debut at the 1950 New York Auto Show, demonstrating the importance to Aston Martin of the American market.
1957 DB2/4 MkIII. Offered in three body styles – a coupe, convertible and a hatchback style – this particular MkIII was fitted with the standard, and incredibly elegant ‘Saloon’ body. Like the previous DB2/4 models, the MkIII had an opening rear hatchback, a first for the industry when the model line first appeared in 1953.
1960 DB4. More svelte than its predecessor, the DB4 was an all-new design first seen in 1958, featuring an elegant aluminum body styled by Touring and hand built at the Newport Pagnell site that the company still occupies to this day.
1963 DB4 SS Convertible. Only 33 of the 70 DB4 convertibles Aston Martin produced came with the ‘special series’ (SS) designation, which indicated a more powerful engine, featured triple SU carburetors and a higher compression ratio.
1963 DB4 GT. Shorter and more powerful than the standard model, externally the DB4 GT had distinctive Perspex covered headlamps that were similar in style to the lights seen on the later DB5 model. This particular car was delivered new to Switzerland before eventually coming to settle in the US. The car has a long and distinguished race history.
1965 DB5. This iconic, coveted model was introduced to James Bond in Goldfinger 60 years ago. A star in its own right, the gadget-laden version of the DB5 has since appeared in Thunderball, GoldenEye, Tomorrow Never Dies, Skyfall, Spectre and No Time to Die.
1968 DBS. The new DBS was a significant departure from its curvy DB predecessors with a more contemporary, muscular style. It was intended to run in production alongside the sleek DB6, with which it shared its 6-cylinder engine. It was joined by a new V8 powered version in 1970. This unit was delivered new to Pennsylvania in 1968, finished in Persian Blue with grey leather
1970 DB6 MkII. Distinguished by its ‘flared’ wheel arches and wider wheels and tires, the DB6 MkII is highly sought after. This example is one of just 245 ‘Saloon’ versions and one of around 70 built to ultra desirable Vantage specification and delivered new to Scotland with right-hand drive.
Pedro Mota, President of Aston Martin The Americas said: “The Las Vegas Grand Prix has become a jewel within our global F1® platform activations. Exposing Aston Martin’s DNA, from the earlier years through to our current lineup of next generation sports cars, gives established and new audiences an up-close perspective on our ultra-luxury brand’s longstanding passion for unmistakable style and immense performance.”
“Aston Martin and Fontainebleau Las Vegas are coming together at the intersection of elegance and exhilaration during Race Week 2024. This exclusive exhibition gives guests the opportunity to see for themselves some of the world’s most exclusive and rare luxury vehicles in the world,” says Fontainebleau Las Vegas President, Maurice Wooden. “We are grateful for our collaboration with Aston Martin and look forward to creating an unparalleled experience together.”
In addition to the expansive Aston Martin display across the Fontainebleau Las Vegas resort, the Aston Martin Aramco Formula 1® Team will be returning to the Las Vegas Strip Circuit on Saturday, November 23, for the Formula 1® Heineken Silver Las Vegas Grand Prix 2024.
