The Aston Martin Vanquish turns 25 this year, and Aston Martin has marked the occasion in the most Aston Martin way possible: by making an already exclusive flagship even harder to obtain. Meet the Vanquish 25 Special Edition.
Created by Q by Aston Martin, the anniversary model draws from all three generations of Vanquish, with particular attention paid to the original car unveiled at the 2001 Geneva Motor Show. Production is limited to 50 examples worldwide, evenly divided between 25 Coupes and 25 Volantes. Buyers can choose between 2+0 and 2+2 seating configurations.
Every Vanquish 25 is finished in exclusive Q Skye Silver paint and decorated with metal-foil detailing along the side sills and shield vanes. It also receives bespoke Aston Martin script graphics, stainless steel side strakes, special exhaust finishers, “Vanquish 25” badging, and subtle V-shaped highlights on its 21-inch forged wheels.
Inside, the anniversary treatment includes unique perforation patterns and trim divisions, embroidered seatbacks, laser-etched trim inlays, a bright red start/stop button, bespoke rotary-controller detailing, and a black Alcantara headliner. Onyx Black, Oxford Tan, and Phantom Grey are the available interior colors.
The mechanical package remains suitably excessive. Its 5.2-liter twin-turbo V12 produces 835 PS and 1,000 Nm (738 lb-ft), driving the Vanquish from 0–100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.3 seconds and onward to 345 km/h (214 mph).
The Vanquish 25 will make its public debut during Monterey Car Week, running from August 10–16, 2026. Deliveries begin in the fourth quarter of 2026. Pricing has not been announced, though “limited V12 Aston Martin” should provide a useful warning. In any case, you are welcome to learn more about this ride most of us will never afford, or have a shot at purchasing here.
