To mark a decade of Aston Martin\u2019s<\/a> presence in Mexico, the British sports car maker\u2019s bespoke arm, \u2018Q\u2019 by Aston Martin, has collaborated with Aston Martin Mexico City and Menchaca Studio to create the Mex\u2019Uk Series: six one-off Vantage coupes that feature exquisite details portraying Mexico\u2019s indigenous culture. Each car is a singular build, with the livery and interior tied to a different power animal from the Wix\u00e1rika culture, representing the people of western Mexico. Rendered in dramatic Q-exclusive finishes and traditional motifs, these aren\u2019t mere artistic details but are symbols that possess deep spiritual meaning.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The canvas for this project is the new Aston Martin Vantage,<\/a> introduced last year. Powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 with 656 horsepower, the dash to 60 mph happens in 3.4 seconds and a 202 mph top speed, which is the fastest Vantage to date. The immense power reserves are complemented with active vehicle dynamics, adaptive Bilstein DTX dampers, an electronic rear differential, and 21-inch Michelin Pilot S5 rubber. A fully reimagined cabin with a state-of-the-art infotainment system completes the package.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThe Vantage has been a treasured part of our brand\u2019s line-up for 75 years, and it\u2019s now a high-performance \u2018canvas\u2019 for our Mexico City dealership to commemorate a milestone decade of sales in Mexico,\u201d said Pedro Mota, President of Aston Martin The Americas. <\/p>\n

\u201cTheir work with Q by Aston Martin and Menchaca Studio exemplifies the truly endless possibilities that result from creative minds uniting to celebrate culture, history, design, and performance.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Every Vantage in the series features a custom Wix\u00e1rika-inspired motif: an intricate, pearl-bronze graphic pattern on the hood. Other exterior details include a bronze-painted grille and side strakes,\u00a0 and forged 21-inch Y-spoke wheels are finished in Satin Copper Bronze. Being used here for the first time, each of the six cars also bears the colors of the Mexican flag on the Aston Martin Wings, a special badge created back in 2016<\/a> to celebrate the World Endurance Championship (WEC) GTE Series win. Handcrafted in copper <\/a>and featuring green, white, and red enamel, the tri-color badge took several hours to complete, with each hue applied separately to prevent mixing. Each of the six cars also features a \u2018Q\u2019 badge that indicates the bespoke commission.<\/p>\n

Step inside, and the cultural theme continues with a Huichol Quilt design embroidered into the leather seats; an homage to the indigenous beaded textiles. A custom sill plaque features the Mex\u2019Uk logo, along with a central cross representing the union between the U.K. marque and its outpost in Mexico City. Surrounding it are 10 concentric chevrons, which is a nod to both Aston Martin\u2019s 10 years in Mexico and the Wix\u00e1rika \u201cOjo de Dios\u201d or \u201cGod\u2019s eye\u201d protective amulet.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The plaques identify each of the six cars by name and their symbolic animal:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Blue Maxa (Blue Deer):<\/strong> A study in serenity, finished in Q Ion Blue with an Aurora Blue interior. It symbolizes purity and grace<\/p>\n

\n

Gray Rawe (Gray Wolf): <\/strong>Q Satin Aluminite Silver outside, Spicy Red inside. A nod to ancestral wisdom and communal strength<\/p>\n

\n

Crimson Cauxai (Crimson Fox):<\/strong> Painted Q Supernova Red with Oxford Tan leather. This combination honors intellect and agility<\/p>\n

\n

Green Xaye (Green Snake):<\/strong> Dressed in Buckinghamshire Green with a Forest Green interior. A metaphor for renewal and harmony<\/p>\n

\n

White Terika (White Scorpion):<\/strong> Metallic Zenith White with Eifel Green. It channels resilience and the will to endure<\/p>\n

\n

Red Hukuri (Red Falcon):<\/strong> Finished in Scorpus Red over Navy Blue. It captures perspective, clarity, and the will to ascend<\/p>\n

\n

Beyond the bodywork, each animal is honored with six Wix\u00e1rika-style beaded sculptures, representative of spiritual wildlife were handcrafted by Menchaca Studio. Every Mex\u2019Uk unit has already been sold, and deliveries are expected to begin in Q2, 2025.<\/p>\n
