I had trouble finding info on this so I'll ask the experts here; did they actually built those 38 planned cars? Both coupe and speedsters?
The best thing about them, I find, is those do not have that racing style wing. The speedster is also very well designed.
I would love to see some pictures of both cars. Also of the coupe with its flip up wing opened.

Thanks!

The plan to build these cars was subject to a contract between Aston Martin and one of Andreas Baenzinger’s companies. As they’re currently suing each other, I’d be amazed if this project actually happened.

I recently came across randomly the press release for these cars.
What ever happened with these, were they ever made? They looked to be based on the V12 vantage S platform. The speedster looked very cool in my opinion.

Unfortunately, I can't answer the question about the Zagatos myself, but Aston Martin St. Gallen, the former headquarter of Andreas Baenziger and Florian Kamelger, is still in business. Many employees were taken on by the new owner, Beat Imwinkelried's B.I.Collection. So I'd suggest reaching out to them at stgallen@bicollection.ch or via bicollection.ch/en/contact/st-gallen. I've had nothing but great experiences with the team there, they'll surely be able to provide you with the information you need.
Good luck (and don't forget to post the results here)

According to this article from December 2020 https://www.auto-motor-und-sport.de/neuheiten/asto... there was one coupé and one volante given to their owners. "The first pair is now complete and has already been handed over to their delighted owners.".

Do there should at least exist one pair of them!
