In the Market for an AM Vantage V8 or S - Some questions?
#46
I agree with RossL,
It's the perfect daily driver, it has all of the features you want and bc it is 7speed SS2, it's perfect for traffic around town. It really is the best balanced of all the vantages. After 6 years Ason really has made the perfect Vantage IMO ... (ok well maybe a little more power wouldn't hurt).

Unless you've decided you want paddles, don't forget about the non-S 4.7. Until the mid-2012 changes, '09 - early '12 are the same. With the Sports Pack, the mechanical spec is the same as the N420. While the S's quicker rack is nice, the difference in power is negligible, and I personally prefer the ride/handling balance of the Sports Pack, which IMO is the best balanced of them all. The ride of the S is quite a bit firmer. The manual 'box is a great one; short throw, very mechanical feel, and a real joy to use. For me, no paddle 'box is anywhere near as enjoyable, no matter how "good" they are.
Either way, you'll have a wonderful car.

Well... earlier today I pulled the trigger on 2011 S Blk/Blk with 3500 miles. still under warranty until may 14 and since it was certified i am able to add extended one for 3 k a year which i will add 2 .( warranty was a big factor for me) should get it delivered tomorrow and will post some pictures.
For now there is the dealer link-

I loved the way it drives and the finishes inside where amazing and beautiful.
I went and drove an R8 an hour before just for my peace of mind and the R8 was very nice, nothing bad to say except it just didn't wow me or felt special.
Very happy with my choice, so thank you all as without your help and guidness i would have 100k more in the bank but would be without this very big .
So now The Q is .. to 3M or not?
P.S Please feel free to send flowers with your congratulation cards

I 3M all of my cars. It's definitely worth the money. I usually cover the entire front up to the windshield, the side skirts and the rear bottom half of the fender.

Congratulations! I agree the bank account may not be happy but you sure are and at the end of day that is what really counts.
Clear bra for sure, I have the entire hood, lights, splitter, mirrors and front fenders wrapped.

I have full front/hood etc Ventureshield(made by 3M and some reviewers like better) on my Gallardo and there are certain bugs that stain the plastic and will not come off -dirt dauber drippings have stained mine also.
