Finding an Aston Martin Valkyrie for sale is a rare enough occurrence, even in the crazy world of millionaire car collectors. But finding a Valkyrie Spider that’s basically brand new and painted in one of the rarest colors to ever leave the Gaydon factory is something else entirely. That’s exactly what’s coming up for sale through Broad Arrow, and this hypercar packed full of Formula 1 technology can be the pride of another lucky collector for an estimated $4.1 million.
The Valkyrie itself doesn’t need much of an introduction. It’s the Adrian Newey-designed hypercar that brought Formula 1 technology to the road, with a screaming Cosworth-developed V12 that revs to 11,100 rpm and makes 1,176 horsepower. Chassis #39 of 85 has covered just 60 miles since it left the factory. To put that in perspective, most owners probably put more miles on their car on the first day they collect it. This Valkyrie Spider is about as close to a museum piece as you’ll find. But what really sets this Valkyrie apart is the specification.
Ordered by Argentine billionaire and car collector Alejandro Roemmers, whose garage includes several limited-edition supercars and hypercars like the Bugatti Centodieci and Pagani Zonda Cinque, he clearly didn’t hold back when it came to ticking boxes on the build sheet. The proof? Over $320,000 in options have been fitted to this car. The aluminum honeycomb wheels are a $53,000 option, for example, while the exposed carbon fiber bodywork adds another $60,000 to the build price. Most of the interiors have been personalized by the Q Division too. It’s a seriously considered build, and not just someone asking Aston Martin for the most expensive paint they had and calling it a day.
Speaking of paint, the colour Storm Purple Gloss itself is not something you see every day, even though it’s been available on other Aston Martin models in the past via the bespoke program. Seeing a color this unusual in the wild makes this car stand out even more, strong words when it comes to a model that was already built in numbers that give the word ‘limited’ new meaning.
Given the mileage, the specification, and that rare colour, it’s not hard to see why there’s so much interest building around this particular car. We just hope the next owner actually uses it as it was intended and doesn’t just park it up to look at.
