Thumbs up 2009 Aston Vantage in beautiful Fire Red

Some pics of the refreshed 2009 Aston Vantage in beautiful Fire Red

Did I mention the 2009 model delivers more horsepower?

Pictures look good but does not feel right IMHO .. I had a few RED Porsches and felt the same way ... just more a Ferrari color ... and the old Brits would say no way to a RED AM ... you can tell the company is run by a German (and maybe that is a good thing).

I agree that Astons SHOULD be BR Green, but that AM V8 looks just plain AWESOME in Fire Red! The sport wheels complement the look nicely. Any idea how much HP the '09s have compared to the '08s?

Why are the sport package wheels so ugly?? Pretty sure they can still achieve the weight with a better design... the stock units are so beautiful in comparison.

That car is very bold and in your face, but I think with new wheels it would look even better, because those wheels don't do it for me.

What do folks think of the new console? Not sure I like the new knobs. They seem somewhat "chunky". Hopefully they look sleeker in person
