"In 1992 Aston Martin's works service offered a 6.3 liter upgrade on existing models. Easily identified by their 'Virage 6.3 Litre' badge, these were fitted with a larger version of the potent V8 engine. Futhermore the rest of the car was comprehensively upgraded in this £50,000 conversion.
The engine work involved enlarging the engines to 6347cc which resulted in 465 bhp to 500 bhp. Other upgrades included larger brakes, a wider bodykit and in some rare cases features that were offered on the upcoming Vantage model. Both coupes and convertibles were equipped with the 6.3 engine.
