Zagato, it’s a name synonymous with style, grace and power. The double-bubble roof screams sex appeal and spy-like mystery that captures imaginations faster than flipping a light switch.

That’s why we were so excited last week when images leaked of the new Aston Martin V12 Zagato, scheduled to make its public debut at the Kuwait Concours d’Elegance. Well, who likes waiting anyway? The good news is, there’s a new video available today that showcases the V12 Zagato running down a road, engine roaring.

The 150-unit-limited beast is powered by a 6.0-liter V12 engine capable of 510-hp and 420 lb-ft of torque, pushing from 0-60 mph in 4.2 seconds.

Of course this, perhaps more than many other exotics, is reserved for the wealthiest connoisseurs with a roughly $520,000 price tag.

It’s true that there are plenty of cars out there capable of more power, higher speeds and crazier shenanigans for a lot less coin, but with far less style, monsieur.

Watch the video and drink in the exhaust note after the jump.
