Why it matters
The Speedster is the rarest of the four Vanquish Zagato body styles, with only 28 built against 99 of each of the others. It is a roofless two-seater whose rear-deck humps echo Zagato's double-bubble roof.

02Production & history
Production
Every figure says what it counts.
| What is counted | Figure | Basis | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total model productionSpeedsters built | 281 | Factory production | Independently researched |
Independent counts (e.g. engine and colour) are never combined into a calculated figure. Surviving examples are never presented as original production.
History
Aston Martin and Zagato announced the Speedster in August 2016, after the Vanquish Zagato concept shown at Villa d'Este that May. Built on Vanquish S underpinnings, it uses a 5,925 cc naturally aspirated V12 rated at 592 bhp and an eight-speed Touchtronic paddle-shift gearbox driving the rear wheels. Cars were delivered throughout 2018; RM Sotheby's notes that only seven were configured for the UK in right-hand drive.
