var digg_url = 'http://digg.com/autos/Aston_Martin_One_77_Revealed'; Even though we've been teased by the Aston Martin One-77 via renders , videos and a positively evil skirt lifting at the Paris Motor Show , we haven't seen the real deal yet — until now. Here are the first images of the body shell of the new, $1.9 million supercar with a 700 HP, 7.0-liter V12 and an already spoken-for run of only 77 units. We should be way, way more excited about these shots, but it's pretty true to all of the previous teasers, so there aren't any real surprises here. No shots of the interior yet, but we're sure it'll be swaddled in unicorn leather with baby narwhal ivory tusk knobs. galleryPost('astononseven7', 6, 'A Look At The Aston Martin One 77'); [ 529 via Autoblog ]

In not particularly surprising news today, we learn all of the Aston Martin One-77 's have been spoken for. We say "not surprising" because, well, there are only going to be 77 built, they're going to be fabulously gorgeous and powerful, and if you throw a product unveil at the Paris Motor Show that's so exclusive the media isn't even invited, we're betting you've got some fairly interested high-rollers willing to sign on the dotted line . Oh don't worry Aston, we'll be fine, just picking up the table scraps you throw our way. galleryPost('AstonMartinOne77CLT', 6, 'Going Once... Going Twice...

Well, partially anyway. We've seen renderings of the One-77 , Aston Martin's new flagship supercar, but we've never seen live shots of the ultra-exclusive car. Until now. We managed to catch Aston as they were making some final touches to the One-77 just before the unveiling and here's what we caught with the sheet partially lifted. As we've already told you, the car will only see 77 units of production and, wait, have we mentioned the price tag yet? Yeah, we thought we had — just wanted to make sure it had sunk in. If it hasn't, here, maybe this will help — IT IS A $1.9 MILLION ASTON MARTIN! More coming shortly. galleryPost('AstonMartinOne77CLT', 6, 'Aston Martin One-77 Teases Us');

It looks like a sales contract for the forthcoming Aston Martin One-77 has leaked, bringing with it details of the price, performance and specifications, as well as two new teaser shots. With 700 HP, 553 lb-ft of torque, a 3,300-pound curb weight and a limited run of only 77 units, the One-77 certainly looks like it’ll be a special car. But can it justify the astronomical, nearly $1.9 million price? galleryPost('one77contract', 3, 'Aston Martin One-77'); The One-77 will be available in either left- or right-hand drive, has only two seats, uses a carbon monocoque chassis with hand-worked aluminum body panels, active aerodynamics (including deployable spoiler), carbon ceramic brakes and a six-speed automated manual transmission. The engine will be a naturally aspirated 7.3-liter V12, allowing the car to reach 60 in the mid three-second range and top out just north of 200mph. That all sounds great, but what does the One-77 offer (other than good looks) that, say, a $480,000...

This is the first official image of Aston Martin's new flagship supercar, known for now as the One-77 to indicate its exclusivity: only 77 units will be constructed. With a price tag of nearly $2 million (£1M), the One-77 promises to be a spectacular machine, helped along by a 7.0-liter V12 that's sure to be impressive. The body will be aluminum with a carbon-fiber chassis, but we'll have to wait and see just how much weight that really saves — as with engine output, Aston Martin isn't releasing any official numbers yet. Estimates figure the One-77 will be able to launch from 0-60 in about 3.5 seconds and top out at over 200 MPH. Those are impressive figures, but for a car that stickers for more than a Bugatti Veyron, they'd better be. [ AutoExpress via Autoblog ]
