I just love the look of the Vanquish..It's so much more beefy than the DB9.
But is it really worth the extra money?

Is the performance that much better in the Vanquish ?

Tks

V8 Vantage & DB9 are nice, Vanquish.. might as well buy a Ford. The interior is just discusting.

The only great Vanquish is a 2006 "S" with the transmission converted to a true manual by Works Service in the UK. Otherwise, the transmission stinks and it's a lot of money. DB9 w/ Sports Pack is exactly what I'd get instead.

I think the Vanquish has the best sounding engine ever....that being said I'd never buy one

I agree.

The Vanquish is slow and overpriced.

Vanquish is by far the best looking coupe out there... the DB9 in comparison looks slab sided.

Of course it is ! The Vanquish is a brute. Reminds me of the 80s V8 Vantage.

The Db9 is nice but doesnt look as aggressive as the Quish or even the V8.

The DB9 is too tame , The Vanquish S sounds very intoxicating.
