Why can't they make this at a reasonable price? (I was told to bring one here would cost about $500k)

 

Hard not to envy him just a little...

 

There's no reason that iteration of the V12 engine can't be used as the "top trim" V12 option of the next-gen Vantage. It'll definitely make the cost for performance justifiable against the AMG-GT drivetrain.

Cost would be far more reasonable if they stuck to the materials of the standard Vantages rather than using so much carbon fiber.

Envy Chris Harris a little? No, sir. I envy him a lottle.

 

A little?

 

Because they know they can sell every one they make, even at crazy prices.

NA gets screwed over again...

I'm imagining one in monotone without the stupid slashes of colour and graphics. Black maybe.

 

Telum and Deckman,

Clearly I should've simply said "Hard to envy him just a little." Much more accurate!

 

Am I the only one who wishes he was riding along at around the 08:30 mark and beyond? Why riding, not driving? Cuz I can't drive like that but I want to feel it.

Also, love his facial expressions as he nears total chaos!

 

Just get the V12S, do a cat bypass and ECU tune and retune the transmission TCU.... Voila... Perfection.

You can easily get to 600hp from the "base" 565hp V12S. 35 HP on V12 NA tuning is piece of cake, even at that high of a specific output. We have all proven Aston always leaves a lot of room on the table on all their cars

 

The V12S is a great car but the appeal of the GT12 isn't just the engine and sound. The 2 are very different.

 

Rather than start a new thread, just added the new EVO video:


And why can't they ever test a car on a dry track?

 

Because England

 

OMG!!!, I wish I could drive like that. I would love to take my Vantage on the track some day. Thanks for posting the video.
