Enjoy the new ride!
I am right up the street, live off of Williamson.

thanks for this info I am going to use this as ammunition when making offers.. 6k miles, well optioned.. 73k.. AWESOME
I used the information from Manheim to get them down from 79k. Maybe the person you talked to was just rounding?

I dunno.. but rounding up!

Yes I am shocked at how much money they are trying to make on these cars.. Manheim commonly is moving 07's with super low miles like your in the mid 60's.. they they are all trying to sell them for 80k and up.. very odd.

No, not that low for an 07. The last one sold Black on Black 6/11/09, with 13k miles for 73,500.

The 2006, which are out of warranty are in the 65-69k range.

The problem with Vantages, is there are not that many going through auctions let most cars.

Great looking car. I considered one of those, but fell for a P-car instead. Still might look to pick one up some day. They are just so classy and stylish.

I bought the same black on black Aston at a Manhiem auction . I was high bid a $65,000, and bought it 2 weeks later for $67,000. with 13k miles , My partner listed the car on a website and almost sold it out from under me within 3 weeks of my purchase at over $75,000.(I passed) I did have to put a new clutch in it , so I am all in at about $71,000, it is the exact same car you have . I drive it everyday , A tire will run you about 320$ (ran over a screw) , I plan to drive the car and sell it going into the fall.

How did the Aston Martin tire repair kit work on your flat until you could get a new tire?

I found the screw in the tire in my driveway, so I just hit it with some fix a flat in my garage and used another air compressor to fill it . The tire held over night before we took it to the tire guy . The local Firestone store was scared to service the tire on the car so had to take it to another STS tire dealer. My tire took a day to get there. I will save the repair kit for another day.

Congrats...nice shots. How can you go wrong with a black Aston? your red stitched interior is very nice as well.

Drive it lots!
