Do they release 3000 Aston Martin Vantages a year or 10,000? I believe it says on Wikipedia that the DB9 has three times the release number of 10k.

"Aston Martin planned to build up to 3,000 per year."

"While the V8 Vantage remains a rare and special car by any standard, the success of the model is highlighted by the completion of chassis number 10,000 - a specially ordered Onyx Coupe delivered to a customer in USA - in the first half of 2008. While the production of 10,000 cars is a tiny number by the standards of typical car manufacturers, it is a significant milestone for an Aston Martin model - the DB-9 being the only other Aston Martin model to have achieved that figure."

 

3000/yr or less worldwide. The V12 Vantage is separate. They were supposedly limiting them 1000 total but that was before they announced plans to sell it in the US...so the real number will probably be higher.

 

Tahoe,
might you know the production numbers for the DBS? i believe i read somewhere that it was around 300 a year.

 

Another point on sales - AM is trying to sell 300 Rapides 2010/2011 in USA. Drove one this past weekend - great 4 door ! Actually - a great 4 door sports car ...
