If you have an extra three hundred grand laying around, and you’re a huge Patriots fan, Aston Martin wants to take that cash off your hands.
On Thursday, the manufacturer announced that they would be releasing a limited edition Tom Brady edition of its Vanquish S Volante. The model will be limited to just 12 cars, and will cost a whopping $359,950.
According to ESPN, the car has Brady’s signature and TB12 logo plastered all over it.
The car has an ultramarine black exterior with dark leather inside and paddle shift tips made out of California Poppy leather.
Brady’s signature is on the plates inside the doors on the floor of the car, while his “TB12” logo can be seen throughout the vehicle, including on the fender and embossed on the headrests.
Aston Martin chief creative officer Marek Reichman said that Brady made the customizations on his car. ESPN also noted that Brady won’t be getting one of the special vehicles as part of his agreement with the company, which seems bizarre, but whatever. He can afford one.
“When he does something on the field, he sees the result immediately,” Reichman told ESPN. “His world is very short in terms of timing. So one thing he made clear to us was that he wanted to be able to make a move and feel the immediacy of performance.”
Hey, if you really love the Patriots and you’ve got money to burn, I can’t get begrudge you for ponying up the cash on this car. But man, that is a *whole* lot of money, which I guess you would expect given that this is Aston Martin and not Kia or Ford or Honda.
