Oh yes, here it is, the big beefy V12 powered Aston Martin Vantage. The fastest most agile Aston Martin has been unveiled here in Geneva and apparently it won’t be coming to the United States. Why? Apparently, the front of the car has some huge problems with passing U.S. regulations.

Nonetheless, you can get your real-life look at the 510-hp Aston Martin V12 Vantage right here. 0 to 62 mph run comes in just 4.2 seconds (0 to 60 mph in 4.1 seconds) with a top speed of 190 mph.

Aston Martin will limit production to 1,000 units. Deliveries of the V12 Vantage will begin in the third-quarter of 2009.

    What is up with the U.S. regulations anyway….may be we'd have cooler cars if it wasn't for dumb regulations….even fuel-efficient cars get canned cuz of those “safety” rules….yet the Smart ForTwo is some how safe

    I take back what I said 4 weeks ago about the wheels needing more spokes, they look terrific. What was I thinking?!!! On the other hand I still wish there were less louvers on the hood.
