New Vantage?

[matrignano]

The options prices are surprisingly restrained!

This is the UK options list (not sure if current pricing though):





From memory Lightning Silver is a 'Contemporary Colour'. The Primary Colours include: China Grey, Jet Black, Magnetic Silver and some sort of white.

Cymario - there are specific design aspects on both the Vanquish (love the distinctive leather interior smell btw) and the new Vantage that I admire. The new Vantage in your photos genuinely looks impressive.

Thank you Alex for the info. I have asked the dealer to let me know which categories the different colours for both interior and exterior fall into and he has emailed AML for clarity and is waiting for a response.

There used to be a colour pallet page on the old website (but like most companies these days who make their website look prettier, the content gets worse!), but it seems the English page is now unavailable. however the Chinese page is still available, so via the power of google translate you can still get to it.

Good enough to give you the groupings, and Im sure you can work out which group is which...

Thanks, really helpful!

Ah thanks. I assume at those prices there are no additional 'extras' required or available if you choose one of those?

Just when I think I have convinced myself of the front end of the new Vantage Aston go and post this:

Looks amazing, with a few small changes (well OK, some big changes to the width, but the grill and bonnet vents are not too different) -next GT8 anyone?

[northernmedia]

If you look at the underside of the bonnet the cut outs are there ready and waiting to be punched through!

The GT3 race version looks awesome from the front, but I just can't stomach the nose of the standard road car. It's proportions look so wrong.

I like it. But to me I instantly think French rather than American (which I think was the intention). Maybe it needs a star or two?

[Beefmeister]

What ridiculous wheels. Can it even turn?

Well, what can I say?

Those blue lights in the brake calipers are very nice, but I don't think they would be appropriate for my own Vantage.

I do like the garage floor though. The reflective surface is a masterpiece.

You might be right with the French theme as the owner lives in Montreal, Quebec.

This was inside the AM Cambridge showroom today, absolutely beautiful spec inside and out. For some reason I’m unable to get the share links from Imgur on my phone so here’s the link:

The colour is White Stone which has a lovely depth of metallic flair to it, with a blue and orange interior, Db11 wheels and sports exhaust.

Wouldn’t personally spec the white interior bits, but they’re easily changed for something else I’m sure.

Up for £158k

Are the bonnet shut lines always this bad?

The left side of the bonnet wasn’t closed properly (there’s a latch on either side due to the size). I pointed it out just after and they closed it, but I went into a meeting so couldn’t retake the photo

It's a shame the parking sensors appear like pock marks on the front valence.

There shouldn't be a bonnet shutline in the first place. Too many disgraceful shutlines all over the bodywork, one of the reasons the New "AMG" Vantage looks better in dark colours.

And that brings us back to
