1962 Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato – $14.3 Million
Debuting at the London Motor Show in 1960, the Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato was unveiled as an improved and lightened version of the standard Aston Martin DB GT. The modifications of the car were made at the Zagato factory in Italy. Zagato is a well-known coachbuilder since 1919 who designed other memorable vehicles such as this one. There were only Zagatos built, with the production spanning between 1960 and 1963. However, six more chassis were completed in 1991 and 2000, which became “Sanction II” and “Sanction III.”
The Zagato was powered by a 3.7-liter twin-spark engine that generates 314 horsepower and has a top speed of 247 km/h. The steel components of the car were all placed with aluminum to make it lighter, smaller, and aerodynamic. The car increases in value over time, and one unit was sold at an auction for $14.3 million—it must’ve been a great investment.
