Accidentally drove a DBS today... I shouldn't have done that. So, um, does anyone want my V8 Vantage?

 

LOL, this is why I don't want to drive a V12V.

 

Did no one warn you of this effect?

 

Ditto!

 

"Did no one warn you that the naked model in your bed might have a large, violent boyfriend?" Lol had to do what I had to do!

 

Accidentally

 

lol **** happens

 

DBS...hehe did u try the new Vanquish yet? Might want to stay away....lol

 

nah, and we don't have one here yet. had a couple for events, but not none in the showroom. that said, the reason i hopped in the DBS was because it had a manual transmission. the only thing getting me out of my V8 Vantage (which has a manual transmission) is a V12 with a stick, i'm not interested in paddles. i'd love a V12V, but the DBS is amazing, too. and it actually beat my expectations. i thought the size and weight difference between it and my V8V would be more noticeable, but it wasn't.

 

lol @accidentally

 

I can tell you it's not all bad . I went to test drive a vantage s, with intent to order one in the newly available manual transmission. "Just for comparison" I decided to sample the v12 while I was there...my plan quickly changed and I left with the v12 vantage and haven't looked back!

 

That's funny, When I drove the V12, it made me only want the V8 more lol. To each his own.

Vantage S coming shortly

 

Was it running on 6 cylinders? That's the only way you could possibly want a v8 Vantage over a v12 Vantage

 

Congrats, I look forward to seeing it. This summer?

 

First of all, great thread title. Secondly, I fell victim to this phenomenon. The v12 is intoxicating. I still think about picking up a used DBS roadster. The one bit of advice that I can give you is go with the 6 speed.
