FS: 2010 Aston Martin V8 Vantage in Quantum Silver

Year: 2010
Make: Aston Martin
Model: V8 Vantage
Price: $75000
Mileage: 18399
Color: Quantum Silber
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (State): CA
Transmission: Automatic
Drivetrain: Rear Wheel Drive

I bought the Vantage with 14k miles and only added 5k over the last 2 years. Most are highway miles in sunny San Diego, driving to and from work. It’s never been to the track/autocross and lives in a garage at both home and work.

It’s been meticulously maintained by one of the best Aston Martin mechanics in CA, John Ryan (New Tickford St. Service). I was super nit picky with warranty work at the dealer to ensure the car was perfect at all times. I have all the records and the annual service was recently completed.

I worked with Stuart Dickinson from Velocity AP to bring out the gorgeous V8 soundtrack with 200 cell cats and improve the SportShift and throttle response with the ECU update. Details on all the installed options are below.

It was professionally washed every few weeks and detailed with a wax once a quarter. Aston’s look great in any color, but Quantum Silver with the Magnum mesh still blows me away when you do that over-the-shoulder look walking away from the car.

I love this car, but I am moving away from the GT class. Even my 997.2 GT3 isn't really raw enough, so I am moving to a Lotus Exige S 260 as a daily. I priced it under market to speed up the sale and make room in my garage for the new car.

Here's a full image gallery of the car

Beautiful car.
Does it have the original clutch? Any service other than scheduled maintenance?

Thanks guys.

@signes - I don't have a sound clip, but I will try to record one in the next few days.

@vdk - It does have the original clutch. I've always followed the proper startup procedures to ensure the tranny runs smoothly. I also avoided starting/stopping on hills like the plague to preserve the clutch.

As for other services, there was a recall on the accelerator pedal arm that I had done. I had small warranty work done like replacing the toggle control for the radio/computer system b/c it was sticking and had them reset the clock. I also replaced the rear brakes at 15k miles.

That's a nice looking Vantage. Interested in a trade with my 997.2 4S?

Thanks, but I already have a 997.2 GT3

Most likely getting a Cayman GTS or an Alpha 4C as a replacement.

Big Price Drop!

I pulled the trigger on a gorgeous agate gray Cayman GTS and I'm picking it up this weekend.

As a result I am dropping the price as low as I am willing to go at $75k!!!

This should make it the best priced, perfect condition 2010 Vantage out there.

If you are interested, please let me know right away.

Wow, $75k is almost a steal for this car. I wish we have a AM dealer in Hawaii, I would convince the wife to buy it.
