Read the full story on Modern Car Collector
A rare 2022 Aston Martin Valkyrie, one of the world’s most exclusive hypercars, is set to headline RM Sotheby’s upcoming Dubai auction, offering collectors a unique chance to acquire this cutting-edge machine. With fewer than 100 miles on its odometer, this near-new example is expected to fetch between $2.6 million and $3 million when it crosses the auction block in December.
The Aston Martin Valkyrie is a true marvel of modern engineering, created in collaboration with renowned Formula 1 designer Adrian Newey and Red Bull Racing. It breaks away from Aston Martin’s usual luxury grand tourers, focusing instead on extreme performance and advanced aerodynamics. The Valkyrie’s design generates an astounding 4,400 pounds of downforce, allowing for remarkable handling at high speeds.
Beneath the sleek, futuristic exterior lies a hybrid-assisted 6.5-liter V-12 engine developed by Cosworth. Paired with an electric motor, this powertrain generates a breathtaking 1,160 horsepower and 664 lb-ft of torque. Weighing less than 3,000 pounds, the Valkyrie rockets from 0 to 62 mph in just 2.6 seconds and reaches a top speed of 249 mph, making it one of the fastest street-legal cars in existence.
What makes this particular Valkyrie even more special is its exclusivity. Aston Martin produced only 150 road versions, making ownership a privilege reserved for a select few. This model’s striking Lunar White finish, combined with exposed carbon fiber detailing and black magnesium wheels, gives it an unmistakable presence. Inside, the race-inspired cabin features a Pure Black Alcantara steering wheel and racing seats with vibrant Spicy Red stitching, enhancing its motorsport pedigree.
For those who missed out on securing one of these groundbreaking hypercars during its original release, this upcoming auction represents a rare second chance to own an automotive masterpiece., one of the world’s most exclusive hypercars, is set to headline RM Sotheby’s upcoming Dubai auction, offering collectors a unique chance to acquire this cutting-edge machine.
