we're currently looking at a vanquish, 360 stradale, bently gt, and the lambo murcielago.

my dad is partial to the vanquish or the gt, but I like the lambo or the stradale. SInce we have the gt2 already, we agreed that the stradale would bee too close to the gt2 in performance to really differentiate the two cars. I really like the stradale or the lambo, but it really looks like hes gonna get the black vanquish. So i suggested waiting for the vanquish "s", but its a little more pricey and we'll have to wait for it....

any suggestions?

You may want to consider getting a very low mileage Vanquish, new ones are taking a beating.

I know I am in the process of getting one.

Dabum: ah... ok.. we jsut figured that performance-wise, the stradale was too close to the gt2....

Orli: yeah i know, thats what turned him off from the Vanquish S. THe vanquish that we are lookign at has about 7k miles....

What's the difference between the Vanquish and the Vanquish S? Engine only?

Vanquish are holding their value at a very crappy rate.

The stradale wont, its an incredible car, drives, sounds and feels like nothing I've driven.


Try to take one for a test drive, you'll see.

P.S hit the sport button
