David Brown Automotive recently unveiled the Speedback GT Silverstone Edition at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show. The Aston Martin-styled speedback is a bespoke edition of a classic car and will remix classic British themes into a spacious two-door grand tourer. The body of the vehicle is built of handcrafted aluminum that was inspired by the GTs of the 1960s. The interior is quite luxurious, with brouged tan leather, Kvadrat Remix fabric, scorched Ebony Macassar wood with metal inlays and a Bluetooth sat nav hooked to a Bowers & Wilkins sound system.
Under the hood, the Speedback GT Silverstone Edition features a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 engine, a six-speed automatic transmission, an upgraded suspension system and a automated Dynamic Stability Control System. The Speedback GT Silverstone Edition is capable of 601 horsepower, 565 lb-ft of torque, but the entire vehicle is electronically limited to a top speed of 155 mph.
