I just wanted to relate how great I think the Vantage V12S is. I have had the car now about 3 months and every time I get in it it puts a smile on my face. So raw and visceral. When I was thinking about getting one I also toyed with the idea of getting a 2008 or so Ferrari 599GTB. There was never one close enough for me to drive it but when I drove the Aston that's all it took. Well yesterday I got the chance to drive the 599. I must say I am glad I went with the Aston. The car was nice but just wasn't as RAW as the Aston. The torque came on later and the steering was soft. I am thinking the Vantage V12S is a well kept secret because it seems like there should be more demand out there for it.

 

I agree 100%

 

if I am able to get another Aston, then that will be the one!
