Aston Martin Valkyrie

FWR it never got a full press release. Auction sales are providing more complete views of the final product.

Looks to have movable doors in the tunnel roofs. May be for additional cooling at standstill or a form of DRS.

There are some great photos of details on that site.

I guess it never got the full exposure because of the pandemic and the fact that they all sold to collectors fairly quickly when the order book opened (and probably before, in reality).

It's an amazing piece of automotive sculpture, if nothing else.
Turbo says "Dumpster sounds so much more classy. It's the diamond of the cesspools." oh, and "The Dutch fans are drunk. Maybe"

What is the point of making another thread for this car when there already is an established one viewtopic.php?t=23995 in which OP has already posted a lot?

And why does this mostly non-technical section even have ratings on?

Being precise, there is no need for two threads.
But one focuses, by title and by design, on what the car does not do.
Having one for the car per se, without the (now negative) angle, makes some sense, then.
Not life changing in any case.
I would like to see a paleontologist.
