New to the Aston Martin family

Hi All,

Thought I'd introduce myself since I'm new to the AM world. I just bought Secret Entourage's "Project Heaven" 2007 V8 Vantage that they had for sale on here. I've only had the car for about a day (arrived yesterday evening here in CA) and wow, I'm totally blown away. Aston Martin hit exactly the right marks on this one. The exhaust from RSC is also out of this world ... I'll be making full use of the car since it will be my daily driver and not a garage queen! Anyways, looking forward to this new "experience" and hopefully meeting any of you local AM guys here in the SF Bay Area!

Aman

Congrats, its a beautiful car. Love everything they did with the exception of the rear diffuser. The AM version is much better IMO.

Congrats. Truly a special car. The RSC and VantageCollection parts on that car are exactly how I would mod.

I'll have some updated pics up soon, but in the meantime, here's a link to the article Secret Entourage did on the car and its build:

You should perhaps create a new thread with the question on the plates as its a good one. Here is an idea
