The Vantage was designed to take on the venerable 911 head-on, resulting in the sharpest knife in Aston’s drawer. The design has been described as the elegant DB10 enhanced by the menacing stance of a Vulcan. Equipped with AMG’s benchmark twin-turbo V8 in terms of power and tractability and ZF’s 8-speed auto transmission, the V8 Vantage makes a strong case against the usual Teutonic GT offerings.
