The Aston Martin Vanquish Zagato was unveiled as a concept back in May of 2016, and was eventually put into production thanks to customer demand. Based on the normal production Vanquish, just 99 examples were built and sold to Aston's most important customers, and now, one of them has already popped back up for sale. You should buy it.

Welcome to You Must Buy, our daily look at the cars you really should be buying instead of that boring commuter sedan.

According to the sellers at Laurent Auxietre in France, this Magnetic Silver Vanquish Zagato is the 70th example produced, and has never been registered. It has an unspecified amount of "delivery miles" on the odometer, and sports a Sandstorm leather interior. It seems the person who originally bought this car never actually drove it.

Like all Vanquish Zagatos, this one is packing a 6.0-liter naturally aspirated V12 sourced from the normal Vanquish, massaged up to 576 horsepower. Getting that power to the rear wheels is an eight-speed automatic transmission controlled via column-mounted paddle shifters and dash-mounted buttons. Along with the stunning Zagato bodywork and customized Zagato-themed leather interior, the car also gets its own suspension tuning and a retracting rear lip spoiler. In case you're wondering how the Zagato sounds, this video of it testing on the Nurburgring should give you a good idea.

Laurent Axuietre doesn't give pricing on its site, but considering the exclusivity this Aston has to offer, it can't be cheap.

And if you're not into the Zagato coupe, don't worry-Aston Martin is building a drop-drop Speedster variant and a wildly cool shooting brake version as well. There's no telling whether the owners of those cars are willing to part with their prized British GT cars as quickly as the example above, however.
