When the Aston Marin V12 Vantage made its debut earlier this year, Aston said that it will produce only 1,000 units of the car during its life span and that it will not offer the car to the North American market. Well, it seems like CEO Dr. Ulrich Bez has changed his mind.

Speaking to CARandDRIVER at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show, Bez said that Aston Martin may build additional units of the V12 Vantage and that it will indeed come to the United States.

Power for the Aston Martin V12 Vantage comes from a 6.0L V12 engine making 510-hp with a peak torque of 420 lb-ft. That allows for a 0 to 62 mph run in just 4.2 seconds with a top speed of 190 mph.
