Achingly gorgeous. Aston Martin’s super-exclusive ONE-77 hypercar is a true art form. Just 77 of these potent projectiles were built, each costing roughly $1.5 million. At its launch in 2009, this was the fastest, most technically-advanced, most radical Aston ever built. And, arguably, the most beautiful.

With a carbon-fiber chassis and hand-formed aluminum body, it was also light yet extremely rigid. And lightning quick, courtesy of its 750 hp, 7.3-liter V-12. How quick? Think zero to 60mph in 3.5 seconds and a 200 mph top speed. It’s the car Bond should be driving, but never has.  H.W.
