Anyone driven an AM V8 Vantage?

[BioBanker]

This car looks absolutely unreal to me.

The performance appears fantastic. The looks are killer. Its unique. Not horrifically expensive. Only thing wrong with it (to me) is that the engine is in the wrong place and there's no SMG like trannny.

It looks sweet. Clarkson gave it a good review on Top Gear, except he thought it was too slow. They also said you could hear the exhaust like 2 miles away!!

Personally, I am in love with the DB9.

this car is fantastic.

If I do well, maybe one in 6-7 years isn't out of the question on the used car market.

I like the front of the cars, but I think the rear of them are UGLY!!

If I have to get a front engine car it has to be a F550 or this.

I think the exhuast is loud because above a certain RPM, it changes to an open exhaust. I read something about this in a car magazine. I'll look for it.

Sexy and oh so elegant. Its the vantage and the vanquish S that swept me off my feet, and I promised myself that one day i would own both.

Here it is. From a Road and Track test drive. ".....acceleration comes on strong at 4000 rpm. That's when the exhaust is uncorked and a throaty growl grows to a race-car wail. Bystanders instinctively swivel their heads to get a look. "
