T he reveal of the Aston Martin Vanquish Volante, which is set to arrive in the U.S. in the third quarter of this year, will surprise no one. After all, with convertible versions

The Vanquish Volante is back with more power than ever before. Its 5.2-liter V12 makes 824 force-fed ponies and 738 pound-feet of twist

While Aston hasn’t released pricing information, company insiders suggest the Volante will be “in the region of $470,000” — that representing a supplement of around $40,000 over the coupe. Which, by the standards of option pricing in this rarefied part of the market, qualifies as a good deal.
