I am tired of the brake dust on my new white car so I emailed Porterfield and Carbotech and they both said they don't have pads for it yet. They may for the S though and I know the front calipers are from the S. Are the rears the same as previous V8V's?

I guess that you need to get access to the V8VS and '13 V8V part books so that you can compare part numbers. Unfortunately, I've only got a link for the pre'10 V8V: https://www.astonmartintechinfo.com/DocumentUplods...

Otherwise, I call to the parts department at your local dealer should be able to furnish you with the info.

AFAIK
1) The newer Vantage with the plastic version of the V12 bumpers has the same brake set up as the S
2) The rears are unchanged on all V8's
