  Every now and again a new, ultra-rare hypercar comes along,
with less than 100 units made for a very exclusive clientele.
The McLaren F1, the Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR, and the Ferrari 250
GTO all fall into this category. So too, does the Aston Martin
One-77, and with only 77 units built (see what they did there?),
it's a beautiful thing.  The One-77 was announced at a weird
time, just as the economy was completely collapsing. Even still,
Aston forged ahead, and they somehow managed to sell every
single car they made despite the astronomical price tag of
somewhere around $1,700,000. This documentary from National
Geographic takes a look at the heritage that went into the car,
the design process, how they're built, and, luckily for us, even
what they sound like. It's also interesting to note the hyper-
modern factory, and it's especially comparable to McLaren.
Unfortunately, they don't have any footage of One-77s randomly
stalling around Paris. You'll have to stick to Jalopnik for
that.
