A few months ago, we reported that Aston Martin's CEO Andy Palmer had confirmed his company is developing a hypercar. Built in collaboration with Red Bull and designed by Adrian Newey, Palmer said the goal was for the car internally known as AM-RB-001 to lap Silverstone as quickly as an F1 car.

At the time, Palmer was short on specifics, but according to Jalopnik, a tipster who attended an owners event has revealed the first details of the upcoming hypercar.

Reportedly, the AM-RB-001 is codenamed "Nebula" and will be powered by a 7.0-liter V12 making 1000 horsepower and revving to 10,000 rpm. It will also weigh only 2300 pounds and won't have wings or spoilers. Instead, the car will borrow heavily from F1 technology to create downforce using the body itself.

Supposedly, the Nebula will look a bit like the Caparo T1 but with typical Aston Martin design cues, including a recognizable Aston Martin grille. And while there will be room for two, the seating will be lined up in tandem and quite close together.

As with other ultra-exclusive cars like the Nebula, owners were reportedly being encouraged to buy multiple cars, including a Vulcan, in order to get a shot at buying one of the 99 that will be built.

We've reached out to Aston Martin to see if the company is willing to confirm any of these claims but are still waiting on a response.
