Opinions from Vanquish owners
I really love the looks of the Vanquish from pictures. I don't think I have ever seen one in person. For those of you who own one or have driven one, what is your opinion? How do they compare to other Aston's?
I am considering purchasing one later this year as they can be had in the $150-60 range now. While that is still a sh*t ton of money to me, it is attainable.

I've owned my 2015 Vanquish for over a year. I think that this car is the most beautiful Aston currently available, even compared to the DB11. It is a great combination of power, performance, and beautiful design, inside and out. The sound of the normally aspirated V12 is awesome. It brings a grin to my face every time I fire it up.

Really different cars
'16 Vanquish -6L NA V12. Great mass, outstanding interior materials/execution. Rich looking, especially in dark colors. A wealthy man's car. $300K, and more on window sticker.
'16 DB11 -5.2L Turboed V12. Lighter, more lively looking. More contemporary design, inside and out. Too much styling, especially the interior in my opinion. Less expensive, but well over $200K on sticker.
Saw both on the same showroom floor in Sarasota this past spring. I would be surprised if they could be bought for the same money.
If you want to make an impression, Vanquish is the way to go.

After researching the various AM models for several months, I acquired in May a '16 Vanquish. For me, it checks all of the boxes and captures the essence of AM: style, sound, and speed. I wanted a car with "soul" and this one has it like no other. It looks amazing from any angle, sounds incredible both inside and out thanks to a fabulous normally-aspirated V12 and will put a grin on your face every time you punch the accelerator. You won't be disappointed by going with a Vanquish...in fact, you will experience a pleasure that you have never known before each and every time you fire up the engine. We are all but mere mortals and our time here is limited so if the bank account can support it, I would go for it. Best of luck in your quest.

I'm going to find one and see for myself. Now I just need to put about $50k into a slush fund my wife doesn't know about!

I have a 2011 V12-Vantage and have been toying with the idea of trading it in for a Vanquish. I spoke with the GM at my local dealership. His take was that the V12V is much sportier; manual transmission, smaller, more responsive than the Vanquish. He says the Vanquish is absolutely an amazing car, one of the top GT cars ever built but if you want a sports car, stick with the V12V.
Like any other decision, it comes down to your preference and what you experience you want. For now, I'm sticking with the V12V but agree that the Vanquish experience > DB11.
