Aston Martin Valour In Andromeda Red: A $144K Paint Job Steals The Show

This UK-based one may be the most striking Aston Martin Valour out there. The paint job alone, in the mesmerizing Aston Martin color-shifting shade Andromeda Red, costs a jaw-dropping £110,000 ($144,000).

This color is like nothing else, shifting between red, orange, purple, pink, green, and blue with a pearlescent finish. The dominant hues of orange and purple really bring out the car’s sculpted lines and curves, making it look even more dynamic.

Adding to the visual drama are gold-painted accents on the grille, splitter, side skirts, rear diffuser, and wheels. The blacked-out badges provide a contrast that accentuates the vibrant paint. Aston Martin’s Andromeda Red is one of the most expensive factory paint options available, even more exclusive than Porsche’s rare Chromaflair collection. Inside, the Valour is just as wild.

Satin carbon fiber finishes the carbon fiber bucket seats, which feature bright orange leather upholstery. This vivid orange theme continues on the center console, door panels, and parts of the dashboard. Meanwhile, luxurious plum-colored leather wraps the top half of the dashboard, steering wheel, and pillars. The interior also features gold accents on the scuff plates, switches, and even the gear knob, contributing to the cabin's opulent feel.

A beastly twin-turbocharged 5.2-liter V12 engine from the DBS powers all 110 Valours, producing 705 hp and 555 lb-ft of torque under the hood. Paired with a 6-speed manual transmission, this powerhouse sends all that torque to the rear wheels, delivering the kind of pure, driver-focused experience that’s becoming increasingly rare in today’s automotive world.
