If you have been waiting for the Aston Martin One-77 to arrive, gear up for the big event! A test car was recently spotted and speculations are that the final testing on the model is being undertaken currently so that customers could soon be able to take delivery of the car.

The Aston Martin One-77 test car has been caught on camera at the Nürburgring Nordschleife. Going by what we see, the new sports car from Aston Martin is driven by a 7.3-liter V12 engine. The engine, we are told, would come with capabilities to deliver about 700 horsepower (522 kW / 710 PS). The automaker will be bringing in only 77 units of the car in the first batch.

Capable of racing from0 to 60 mph in just 3.3 seconds, the sports car model can touch top speeds of over 200 mph. This has been proved by a prototype, which under test conditions, ran up to 220 mph or 355 km/h speeds. Are you among the first 77 to take the car out for a spin? [via WCF]

For those out of the know, the new Aston Martin One-77 is a limited edition supercar — only 77 units slated for production. As exclusive as it may sound, 10 of these scorching speedsters have been ordered by some crazy fanatic hailing from the middle-east. That is surely a whopping order as the guy is paying $17M for 10 units and the speculation is that each of these 10 cars will get a unique exterior color and cabin. The new Aston Martin One-77 features a 7.3-liter V12 engine capable of producing 700bhp, and can hit a top-speed of 355km/h.

That’s another reason why I hate being poor. Don’t you ?

One of the most sought after supercars in the world, Aston Martin One-77 is going to be unveiled at the Concorso d’Eleganza on the shores of Lake Como in Italy. The fully-built concept car will see daylight between April 24 – 27, and visitors will get to see everything from the behemothic 7.3-litre V12 engine to its handmade interior that makes the One-77 stand out from the crowd.

“This is a major step in One-77′s engineering programme, showing the first complete car, and will demonstrate new benchmarks in many different fields of automotive design” said Dr Ulrich Bez, CEO of the company.

Looking at the new models that make it to Geneva this year, we’re really thinking if this year’s auto show is only for the rich and famous.

But the amazing isnot only the stunning exterior, but the power under the hood. Running on a 6.0-litre V12 engine that outputs just a bit over 700 hp, tops well over 200mph and sprints to 60mph in 3.5 seconds.
