I gotta comment on the new vantage’s looks, to me it feels like the last version has hooked up with the one-77 (an all-time favourite Aston for myself) & created this stunning vantage with the bigger grill & the side intakes.
Looking inside, and it's like a whole new world inspired by the DB12. I like when the designers have little nods related to the car, like the buttons on the console mirroring a V8.
The power increase, from around 500 to 650hp, definitely ain’t going to be caught slacking at the lights now. Not far off the special V12 that was released.
Price wise I’m betting this new vantage has a serious jump over the last. I do wonder if it will depreciate like so many other Astons do.
The Y Spoked Forged Wheels is a lovely design. I would love to do a RW incorporating the launch colour Cosmopolitan Yellow, possibly a few other Aston classics like green and silver. Wouldn’t the watch be interesting if it could go backwards like the rev counter on some Astons.
