Aston Martin Vantage Powers Up
Written by steven on February 22, 2008 – 4:37 pm -
The Aston Martin V8 Vantage wreaks of illness: exclusivity, hand stitched leather and that sa-weet winged badge. Unfortunately, the ill whip jungle waits for no one and and the power race marches on. Aston Martin Vantage tries to step it up a notch with increased engine capacity to 4733-cc, and hopefully 20+ more horsepower. The inside cabin is also expecting an update. Car magazine reports that the DB9 is even due to get a “facelift”, causing one blogger to beg Aston Martin to “please be careful with what is already perfection.” We don’t find it that drool-worthy, but we do like this orange red Vantage from their website.

Specs: A 5-liter V-10 (523 horsepower, 376 pound-feet of torque); six-speed manual or six-speed automated manual transmission. About 11 mpg in town and 17 on the highway, which gets you slapped with a $3,000 guzzler tax (what’s that to a baller like you, a parking ticket?)
Competition: Ferrari F430 F1 coupe, Porsche 911 GTS, Aston Martin DBS which is the only one more expensive at around $265,000.
