Is anyone here really good with Photoshop? The V8 Vantage is my dream car and I wouldn't change anything about it. However, I've recently been looking at the Mercedes AMG GT and have been wondering...

What if there was a V8 Vantage, but with the longer bonnet and front half from the V12s, like from the DB9 GT or something like that.

I know it would be stupid because it's the shorter wheelbase and the great chassis which make the Vantage so damn good, but I've been curious. Would you get something like the AMG GT and have the massive bonnet and the small cabin over the back wheels?

Anyone good at Photoshop who could bash something together?

Try the Photo forum. If you can post reference photos for them it will help.

Thanks. Not awful, but definitely not "right". Interesting look.

As a sucker for a front engine coupe design, I think the AMG GT is a great looking car. There is a yellow one that often drives past my house, it looks and sounds terrific. Up close they seem quite big for a two-seat coupe, it`s closer to a DB9 than a Vantage in size, although it`s seems significantly wider.
The other awesome design that surprised me with how big it was in the metal was the Maserati Gran Turismo, that thing is large! They all look fantastic though, a stretched Vantage less so. wink

It may all be an illusion, but the distance from the base of the windscreen to the front of the AMG GT, does appear extra long.
Note the GT also has much more upright A pillars than the Vantage, which together with the long bonnet, give the impression that the cabin area has been pushed backwards.

Tell me about it. I had a GranTurismo for 4 years and adding insult to injury, I was living in Paris, having to deal with all those medieval streets. biggrin

But to be fair, they have proper rear seats. I am 1.96m and I could seat in the back, comfortably, provided the front seat would have been fully forward.

After that, the Vantage to me now has approximately the same dimensions of a go-kart! smile
