I’ve seen this before where only one of a set is published. I’ll bet this quote will show them as thumbnails. And no, no idea.

I like the exhausts - not too sure about the wheels

Thanks for sharing. I think those DB10-style wheels really suit the new Vantage. Can't see them on the online configurator anymore....are they still available?

New Vantage has grown on me....best looking rear of the range in my opinion. How's the reliability? Heard they are generally excellent.

Is that Xenon Grey? Your car is beautiful!

Thanks for your comments. Yes it is Xenon. I only have 300 miles on it so far. I was able to buy the unused rims and tires from The
Luxury Wheel Collection company in Arizona. They gave me a $800 trade in value for mine and charged me $3,200. I think that
was very fair since they are a $3,100 option. The car is very satisfying to drive and just to look at. I’ve had just about every other
brand of sports cars. I can only say the paint,interior materials and assembly care is best that I have ever seen.

Nice choice of mods in my opinion.

Love the wheels, they remind me of the DB10 Bond car. How did you make the twin exhaust fit, carefully cutting the original body part or a new one?

Actually I took my car to a different independent shop who corrected the positioning of the pipes. No cutting required. By the way,
my understanding is that the 10 spoke diamond cut rims on the new Vantage were used out of necessity. My dealer told me they were getting
cars delivered to the US without specifying the extra cost rims because the standard rims couldn’t be produced quickly enough. I
suppose these wheels were unused ones from the first years of the DB10 run.

Also forgot to mention the engine dress up kit that was not at all that easy to put into place...

Like others the new Vantage took some time to grow on me but now I like it. Much better looking at the rear that the front to my eyes but on the whole a great looking car.

Not so sure about the wheels but this is such a personal area so cant be criticised.

Nice choice all round though.
