They're great cars; fast and better leg room than DB9/DBS, bigger trunk. B&O is great, especially in a convertible (can actually hear it very clearly). Some say you need the 8, but I don't think so. Fewer gears makes using the paddles more enjoyable since you're not always clicking on them. On the other hand, if you don't use the paddles (it's a gimmick if you ask me), then 8 is fine. Either way, you can't go wrong with the top of the line.

Get the book, do your homework
Anyone thinking about getting an Aston should get a copy of Grant Neal's book, "The Definitive Guide to new Gaydon era Aston Martin"
It is in my estimation the Bible for the cars. Everything and anything you want to know.

I agree. The engine has some much power that 8 gears is too many. My wife's Jag has 8 gears and paddles are worthless. On the Rapide and 6 gears it's just awesome.

I’ve seen a used Centenary Silver colored Vanquish for sale a couple of years ago at my local DC dealer before I bought mine (Skyfall Silver on Spicy Red with Obsidian Black). It’s generally a “love or strongly dislike” with the degradated paint job of Skyfall Silver into charcoal. I personally liked but my other friends thought it looked odd like the paint wasn’t finished. This is mine for perspective...

++1! Definitely a must read before buying one of these cars! Full of truly useful information and a big help when scouring the internet for just the car you want.

Most Aston Dealers are resellers for an aftermarket splitter guard.
