READ WHAT THE EXPERTS HAD TO SAY ABOUT THIS VEHICLE…
In 2002 at Le Mans race, Dr. Ulrich Bez had something like “a feeling…,” while he was driving a DBR1. Talking about it with Andrea Zagato at Pebble Beach Concours D’Elegance the next August, this feeling turned into an idea and this idea gave life to the beautiful American Roadster.
DB AR1- (The DB American Roadster 1) is derived from the DB7, the most successful Aston Martin of all time, and is based on the DB7 Vantage Volante (convertible) and boasts revised bodystyle with coachwork by Zagato and incorporates a number of dynamic elements, which have been finely engineered to offer a new dimension to the Aston Martin driving experience.
DB AR1, is not a convertible Zagato version of the Coupe - but rather an addition to Aston Martin’s exclusive product range and is available only as a two-seater.
Dr. Ulrich Bez, CEO of Aston Martin. “This is the reason why Aston Martin has preferred Zagato: it has the same approach to business: quick answers and quality” and “Aston Martin is unique in its ability to react quickly to its customers requirements and produce limited edition sports cars.”
The DB AR1 Zagato Roadster is extremely unique in that it was designed with the Californian weather in mind and is a Roadster in the proper tradition, with no top and space for just two people.
After the Los Angeles Motor Show, all cars were sold in a three week tour in United States.
The DB AR1 has carefully detailed features like: a large distinctive radiator grille and accentuating rear wheel arches, which are also new, the reverse/fog light combination provide graphic evidence of intricate hand craftsmanship and quality that has become an Aston Martin trademark.
The DB AR1 benefited from a performance increase and offers 435bhp, compared to the 420bhp of the DB7 Vantage. This increased power together with a revised final drive ratio and active sports exhaust system not only provides noticeable improvement in mid-range power, but also additional torque - up from 400 lb/ft (DB7 Vantage) to 410 lb/ft, providing a sharper accelerating drive. An AP twin plate racing clutch, which replaced the single plate clutch found on the DB7 Vantage, combined with the revised quick-shift gear lever also fitted to the DB7 GT will enable the driver to maximize use of the increase in power and torque and enjoy a faster gear change.
In addition to the revised body design, the DB AR1 has special multispoke 19” alloy wheels - with revised offset to give a wider track (8x19” front, 9x19” rear) - equipped with SO2 245/35 ZR19 front and 265/30 rear, low profile Yokohama tires. The active sports exhaust system with rear muffler by-pass valves - as used on the V12 Vanquish" which provides the DB AR1 with a very distinctive exhaust note.
A combination of racing-style grooved 355mm (front) and 330mm (rear) Brembo disc brakes and uprated Pagid RS 42-1 front pads provide the DB AR1 with better-sustained performance, with improved resistance to judder and fade, particularly at high speed. An uprated brake booster unit as used on the V12 Vanquish - assists in providing the driver with progressive braking and a firmer and more consistent pedal feel.
