Harry is such a class act.

Yupp. A enthusiast and not a biased influence who is afraid of insulting manufacturers and lose privileged access to free breakfasts and canapés.

One of the most impressive features of this car is the speed at which the roof folds up or down.

I love his vids, but he is extremely biased towards anything British. Most of his vids make little sense, he always drives the same stupid route from his house through that little congested town, and he is barely audible because he refuses to attach a mic to his shirt. I sent him a couple of messages already to suggest some improvements, but I get not even a response.
Still like his vids though, he's old school and knows a lot of things.

Ads for this new Vantage......LOL go home Aston, you're drunk. The only good parts in this entire car are sourced from Mercedes-Benz. Aston Martin is near dead, unable to produce a proper car anymore due to lack of funds. The interior is absolutely ghastly too. And the rear.
No doubt it's "good". But it better be "good" for a tiny little two seater that costs more than a small apartment, and which lacks any kind of modern sophistication and tech. Harry was wise to not even turn on the nav system screen.

Eight days of the week, I take a 718 4.0 GTS over this, which is better in every single aspect and also costs half (!!!)

Yes, Harry does sometimes romantisize about British cars and racing history.

In the Vantage review his criticism was Blunt: The Boxster GTS is just as capable and fun, the F-Type V8 offers the same recipe for less and the 992 Targa is a great car for less.

A V12 Vantage would be splendid and more unique but it's unclear whether AM will bother.

Yes, that was fair.

They shouldn't lack funding considering all the investments from Stroll and now Vettel with many more people joining.

 

[Matski]

he always drives the same stupid route from his house through that little congested town,

Can't speak for all his viewers, but for people like me it's way more representative of real-world use than pummeling a race track or cruising down to the south of France.

 

[Levi68]

Wonderful car ruined by Mercedes parts.

 

[Levi68]

IMV best best side profile of any 2 door car. LC looks perfect too, but it is a bigger car.

it needs updates though. the headlights should be different, slightly larger and better integrated.

interior needs to be new, given it is a Mercedes, give it new S Class interior, or maybe new SL if it is similar.


and TTV6, better and plenty enough.

Until you sit inside it and realise that outward visibility is terrible and you look like find a Goldbug challenge in a Richard Scarry illustration from the outside. I have no feels for this car whatsoever. I walk right by it whenever I go to the local agents' showroom. I don't think it looks good at all.

Looks like from this teaser picture, Aston Martin is going to unveil hardcore version of the Vantage on March 22nd.

The F1 pace car maybe...?

Aston Martin Vantage F1 Edition

535PS(+25PS)

upgraded chassis courtesy of changes made to the suspension and steering. Underbody modifications were also on the "to do" list, and the car now boasts tweaks to the dampers and springs to sharpen the handling and increase body control.

The aerodynamic package is what catches the attention the most, contributing to an extra 200 kilograms of downforce at top speed.

€162,000 in Germany

beautiful

Yeah no, the standard car with the original grille for me.

Love the new grille. Now Aston only needs to do a small facelift to the frontlights, rear rumper and bootlid, and make them more similar to the DB10 ones.

The car needs a facelift inside and out. They should replace the dash with the one in th Speedster.

It's Sacrilege that the Vantage has the infotainment of a 2012 A-Class: A tiny 8 inch screen without standard carplay or Android auto.

Although the DBX has a 12 inch display, it's not even a touch screen! Serious corner cutting.
