The V8V Niche Gets More Crowded

Dang, that's pretty slick. Luckily the next Vantage is getting a twin-turbo V8, which trumps the Alfa/Maserati twin-turbo V6 in the marketing game. But I really hope the next Vantage pumps out more then the off-the-shelf 500-ish hp AMG is tuning it for. There's no reason the AM version can't do 550 hp, which will definitely set it apart from the competition. Then it's just a matter of styling... Alfas are gorgeous cars and we're all still waiting to see what AM is going to bring us.

The V12 Vantage's engine is going to continue development a while longer (per Aston Martin's statements), and hopefully they'll really pull out the stops and make it a 600+ hp engine.

500 (or 507 or 520 or whatever it ends up being) hp is the off-the-shelf rating from AMG. So if it's less than that, they'll have to detune the engine before they stick it in the Vantage - something they surely wouldn't do to it since it's being shared with the next C63, which costs have as much as the Vantage.

I am not confident that the next gen Vantage will have a MT.
