I understand that only 100 2017 V12S Vantages will be imported to the USA - how many 2015 were imported? Anyone know?

 

2017 MY of 100 cars applies only to the 7-speed With the dog-leg Selector.

 

...and 2 of them sit unsold at dealer lots in NC.

 

Yep, 4 dealers in SoCal have @ least 1-2 still in stock.

 

I'm more interested in the 2015 model year than the 2017 - want to see how rare of a car the 2015 is.

 

The 2015 wasn't a "special edition" like the Carbon Black, Centenary, or Dogleg, and I don't think any numbers were announced. If you want to know contacting Gaydon would probably be your best bet.

 

6 of them 2017 7 speed still for sale in Canada. As for the 2015, you will have to contact the Gaydon factory or headquarter to find those numbers. I use this email address to make my request <SERVOPS@astonmartin.com> and this person reply back <keith.brissenden@astonmartin.com>, Keith is a Client Support Executive. In my case I wanted to know how many 2009 Vantage Coupe 6sp manual were imported to North America as I knew that back then the economy was not so good and fewer cars were manufactured.

His answer was: "There were circa 400, 2009 model year V8 vantage coupe manuals built, of these circa 70 were left hand drive and shipped to North America"

Hope this help

 

Handman2009...wow interesting...I guess the US market is not really getting as many AM cars with most sold overseas.
Thanks...safe driving

 

That actually a pretty strong number considering the economy, sticks being 1/3 of production means about 1200 coupes, coupes being less than half means they built at least 2500 V8V's in 09'. That's not far off the average since the 2010's stared around 13,000, At 3000/yr they'd be at 12000 and it was a 2005 model in LHD wasn't it?

I'd bet they sell as many in the UK as they do in the US. I could be way wrong!

 

Mine is 09 and my VIN is 13321 with a build date of 05/09 (May 2009), those were the number they send me...

 

Don't want to hijack the 2015 thread but this is very interesting.
My 2009 Manual, coupe has the VIN 13024.

Would be interesting how many of the 70 imported 09 Manuals were equipped with the Sport pack.

 

Mine is also Sports Pack

 

My mistake, 2010, 13833, built 12/9. Sport pack.

Sport pack was about 1/2.

 

no wonder it was such a ***** finding a post-09 manual, they didn't make many for the US!

 

I figured I was looking for 1 of 100 cars, 09-11', stick, couple, in a light color. If I was looking for black it would have been a much easier search.
