Hello to this crew

Hello All! Quick introduction, I just picked up a 2019 Vantage, what an exquisite vehicle! I come from the NSX, E39 M5 and multiple Porsches, the last one was a 2014 Turbo (been on 6 Speed for the 996, 997 and 991 forums). The astounding bit is what the used car market is doing, I ended up trading it in for (nearly) a straight swap! I figured I couldn't pass up a deal like this as they gave me about $12k off what I bought it for, CPO . . . four years ago! The 911 does so many things very, very right . . . But the Vantage's sound is intoxicating. The interior is truly amazing and I cannot remember the last time I launched the 911, so what does it matter that the Vantage is almost 1.5 seconds slower? Where do I have to be in such a rush?

I must be getting old, cheers! KH

Looks fantastic and welcome to the Aston club.

I had a 997S and Cayman and am still a Porsche fan. My Cayenne Turbo still sits in the garage.

Driving an Aston has been a wonderful experience. Be sure to keep us posted on your Aston journey!

Amazing vehicle. I'm looking to trade in my 991.2 for a new Vantage.

Good luck to you! Part of why I share my experience is to give folks a view into the crazy trade-in prices that are out there. I would have never imagined, but this was just the perfect moment to step out of my Porsche comfort-zone and try something different!
