There's no reason that iteration of the V12 engine can't be used as the "top trim" V12 option of the next-gen Vantage. It'll definitely make the cost for performance justifiable against the AMG-GT drivetrain.
Cost would be far more reasonable if they stuck to the materials of the standard Vantages rather than using so much carbon fiber.
Envy Chris Harris a little? No, sir. I envy him a lottle.

Because they know they can sell every one they make, even at crazy prices.
NA gets screwed over again...
I'm imagining one in monotone without the stupid slashes of colour and graphics. Black maybe.

Am I the only one who wishes he was riding along at around the 08:30 mark and beyond? Why riding, not driving? Cuz I can't drive like that but I want to feel it.
Also, love his facial expressions as he nears total chaos!

Just get the V12S, do a cat bypass and ECU tune and retune the transmission TCU.... Voila... Perfection.
You can easily get to 600hp from the "base" 565hp V12S. 35 HP on V12 NA tuning is piece of cake, even at that high of a specific output. We have all proven Aston always leaves a lot of room on the table on all their cars

Rather than start a new thread, just added the new EVO video:
Aston Martin Vantage GT12 review | evo LEADERBOARD - YouTube
And why can't they ever test a car on a dry track?
