Just picked up a V8 Vantage

Love the car so far. Feels very special and everything feels very high quality. I like it quite a bit better than the 997 Turbo I had.

Ps. Don't laugh about the i3, it enables the v8v to rest most of the time. I have both one of the ugliest and one of the most beautiful cars made.

My girlfriend is a service manager at a BMW dealership and the techs hate those things because they don't need any real maintenance so they don't make any money on them

Beautiful car. Enjoy your new toy. I love my Porsche but the Aston is something very special.

Congrats! Car looks beautiful.


Now get rid of that i3 and just daily drive the Vantage. You'll soon find out that's the best thing you've ever done for yourself (and for the car, too).


Well, I did and now I enjoy every mile going to and from work everyday.

Had mine a little over 6 months and just love it - you will too!

Bet you find excuses to drive it instead of the i3

Looks great, I'm going to guess an 09 with the sports pack? Manual or sport shift?

Love your Alloro as well! Nice to see other Vantage owners in the LA area.
