V8 Vantage GTS

[Gene G]

I just bought a 2016 V8Vantage GTS. I know that they made 100 of them. The Aston Martin dealer that I bought it from said that 50 were the sport version and 50 were the lux version. They didn’t have a figure for manual versus Sportshift. They said that the normal take rate is 70% Sportshift. I was hoping to find out how many GTS lux with a manual.

An enquiry to Tim Cottingham, Registrar, Aston Martin Heritage Trust, might be an idea.

Some USA Vantages have different model names from the UK, so we are sometimes unfamiliar with the specifications.
I know the Vantage GT is the USA version of the N430 ex. lightweight seats, but don't know much about the GTS.

We don't have Lux and Sport versions. Does that mean Coupe and Roadster (soft top) ?

When 'drilling down' into Coupe, Manual, Tungsten, you will have one of very few.

Enjoy your car. At 4,000 miles it must be 'as new'.

I feel pretty lucky to find this one. I have been looking for quite awhile. Everything I find has a Sportshift. I saw this one advertised on Autotrader. They didn’t even have the pictures for it. They emailed me some pictures and we made the two hour trip to Orlando Aston Martin and traded in our 2014 Mercedes cl600.
This is the fourth Aston for me and I think it might be the best one yet. Funny thing the cl600 was sold to someone who saw that I traded it on the mb forum. He saw the listing and bought before they had pictures of it.
