The Ringbrothers Aston Martin DBS OCTAVIA is about to make its global debut, and anticipation is building ahead of Monterey Car Week 2025. This marks both the first Aston Martin project from the acclaimed Wisconsin custom builders and their first-ever appearance at The Quail, a Motorsports Gathering.
Ringbrothers’ First Step into Aston Martin Territory
Ringbrothers have earned global recognition for their meticulous reimagining of American classics. With OCTAVIA, they are stepping into the world of British grand touring, aiming to blend Aston Martin’s timeless elegance with their own uncompromising craftsmanship.
A Bespoke Carbon-Fiber Evolution
Starting with a 1971 Aston Martin DBS as the donor car, the team spent more than 12,000 hours crafting OCTAVIA. Its bespoke carbon-fiber body is a modern evolution of William Townsend’s original DBS design. The car’s stance is dramatically widened, 10 inches at the rear and 8 inches at the front, while the signature clamshell bonnet showcases advanced fabrication.
Power and Performance to Match the Looks
OCTAVIA will house a supercharged V8 engine delivering an estimated 805 horsepower, paired with a six-speed manual gearbox. This setup promises an exhilarating driving experience, balancing high-speed thrills with precise control.
Attention to Detail, Inside and Out
Every aspect of OCTAVIA has been tailored, from bespoke interior components to custom mechanical solutions. The build reflects Ringbrothers’ dedication to detail and their philosophy of pushing engineering boundaries.
The Quail Debut on August 15
Enthusiasts will see OCTAVIA for the first time on August 15, 2025, at The Quail, a Motorsports Gathering. The event provides the perfect backdrop for a car that blends British sophistication with American custom-building artistry. Full details and imagery will be shared following the debut.
Summary
The Ringbrothers Aston Martin DBS OCTAVIA is shaping up to be one of the most exciting premieres of Monterey Car Week 2025. With its widened carbon-fiber body, 805 horsepower, and unparalleled craftsmanship, it stands as a bold new chapter for Ringbrothers.
