Fantastic! I got into James Bond during the Brosnan years; the Vanquish was my favorite car of all the ones he drove (especially after finding out how mediocre the BMW Z8 is in real life). Please post more pictures when you can!

Yes, but very pricey! Heard it's around $25K or so (could be more...)

Wow 25k, that's expensive for a swap. Are they using the factory OEM manual or opting out for a t56/6060 6 speed from and lsx motor?

Just googled. Looks like the OEM unit is a t56. Learn something new everyday.

Swapping for a full manual seems pointless to me since the SCT works great as is.
