RE: Aston Martin Vantage GT12 out and about
Discussion
I can't help but feel that Aston Martin are a little late to the party with this car.
I'm pleased to see that they have finally reached 600bhp with that V12. Seems to have taken over a decade compared to the cometition.
Also, when are we going to see the new amg v8s.
Pleased to here that new designs arecoming.

A little unfair. Given their financial position. Don't you think they wanted to change 10 yrs ago. The new amg v8 will give them close to 600hp, new designs coming. I love astons but I won't buy another until they meet their completion in regards specific output, which they willI'm pleased to see that they have finally reached 600bhp with that V12.

Porsche own GT3?!
It's a race series - and one that's been around for 10 years now... So 8 years less than the Lotus Esprit which was 3 years ahead of any Porsche of such a name!
Aston may need to concentrate its investment on development but let's not let the Germans go swinging their cocks on this one. Don't get me wrong, I drive a 911 and will back Porsche all day on most things, but no!
A GT3 is not necessarily a Porsche, it wasn't one first and it shouldn't go out as one either.
Been discussed if I remember the gist correctly it doesn't matter that lotus used it first. They didn't register it so the name was free to be used. Porsche did register it so now it's one of their trademarks or something. Porsche own GT3?!

No I don't get it either, also no mention of the bently GT3 having to change names.
