Getting Fitted for the $2.6 Million Aston Martin Valkyrie Hypercar

Even if you had the cash to afford one of the 150 Aston Martin Valkyries that will roll off the production line in the next few years, you can’t just walk into a dealership and buy one.

The $2.6 million Valkyrie, the latest entry into the exclusive, ineffable club of automobiles known as hypercars, was developed by the historic British brand in collaboration with Adrian Newey, chief technical officer of Formula One championship-­winning Red Bull Racing. It’s a hybrid race car for the street, a carbon fiber rocket powered by an astounding 1,000-plus-­horsepower V-12 engine that’s assisted by an electric motor. And it’s already sold out—having been made available only to proven loyal fans of the brand with vetted financials.
