One of just 1,000 ever made — the 2012 Aston Martin Virage delivers pure V12 power and the soul of a future collectible!
Overview
SBX Cars is proud to offer for sale this 2012 Aston Martin Virage Coupe showing 61,130 kilometers (37,984 miles) at the time of this cataloging. Finished in Stratus White over a Chancellor Red leather interior, this GCC-Spec Virage is offered in Dubai by a private seller with two keys, a manual, an umbrella, and service records.
The striking Virage – bearing the name of a venerable sports car first produced in 1989 – made its world debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2011, and manufacturing kicked off in Warwickshire, England shortly thereafter. From its onset, the handcrafted Virage was designed to bridge the gap between the Aston Martin brand’s grand-touring DB9 and flagship DBS, blending equal parts luxury and sport into an all-inclusive package. The result was an automotive home run: Car and Driver said, “We emerged impressed by the Virage’s eager responses, controlled body motions, and communicative steering.”
The Virage was widely reputed for the performance thrill and the aural sensation of its naturally-aspirated V12 engine, and the car was destined to become a future collectible even when it was new. Only about 1,000 total units were produced. Over a decade later, it has become an increasingly desirable supercar in the marketplace.
This stunning, low-mileage example from the Virage’s short production run is sure to impress and reward its next owner. It comes fully inspected for informed buyer awareness, and it is accompanied by extensive service records showing responsible stewardship and care.
