2016 ASTON MARTIN V8 VANTAGE GT

Generations may come complete cars from other cars, and he went at that time was the Aston Martin V8 Vantage around, and after the car entry-level British car industry is still going strong. Introduced in the 2006 model, and V8 Vantage can be described as too old to compete, but spend some time in the 2016 Aston Martin V8 Vantage GT convertible, and will form a different impression. However, we did not just pay the 2016 V8 Vantage GT drop top. Also we spent time in the V12 Vantage S, DB9 GT, and conquer the same day and the same ways. Each has its own gravity, but when you want a more exciting with the leadership of the uniqueness of the back certainly German sports car engine experience, as well as 2016 Aston Martin V8 Vantage GT to your list.

Short-throw six-speed manual, 2016 V8 Vantage GT costs $ 107.825, including $ 2,825 for destination, and the Roadster model starts at $ 122.325. It is offered seven-speed automated manual too, but we avoid it. Before we got behind the wheel of any car, chief engineer program Aston Martin John caressing stressed that automated guide rather than a conventional automatic, and it shows. Aston stadiums as a way to connect to the efforts of the transfer of motor sport, but buyers will be better off eschewing transfer Sportshift II and using the $ 5,300 it costs to other options. Automated directory in the auto mode is a bit jerky, and if what you really want is the traditional and pure driving experience to ride your weekend, and get a V8 Vantage GT with the clutch pedal until the replacement of the car has a solution without smoother or faster interval.

Unless you keep track of your horse regularly weekend fancy ride, it is difficult to extract the most potential of alien species without driving accidentally in a tree, off a cliff, or in a prison cell. Unlike the fastest 565 horsepower V12 Vantage S, however, you do not feel like you're wasting a lot of power with a V8 Vantage GT. After reducing the soft top of the car and speeds of up to about 30 miles per hour, naturally aspirated, 430 hp, 4.7-liter seems V-8 with sports exhaust from the entry level to Aston wonderful reverberating against the walls of the tunnel.

Such as the 2011 V8 Vantage S we drove years ago, riding a V8 Vantage GT is firm as you would expect, but not beat you on every bump. Guidance is to communicate and along with the GT model is adaptive sports suspension makes winding roads more enjoyable.

Once this is done or need a break, get out of the swan-wing doors that open up slightly at an angle, and admire plates and V8 Vantage beautiful. The car was for sale since the 2006 model, and you can save money by getting a used car gently, but who thinks logically about buying cars with signs six-figure price?

Astons those used may not benefit from the extra equipment and V8 Vantage GT. Apart from the sport suspension and exhaust system, and V8 Vantage GT 430 hp and 361 lb-ft of torque, 10 hp and 15 lb-ft more than regular V8 Vantage with the same 190 mph top speed. Aston estimated 0-60 mph in 4.6 seconds. In Motor Trend test, we recorded the eight-cylinder, manual transmission for the 2009 Coupe up to 60 in 4.1 seconds.

GT V8 Vantage offers a choice of five exterior colors with a controversial, contrasting colors. (A complete panel is available on the normal V8 Vantage model.) And one in recognition of those color combinations and the desire or enthusiasm for the manual transmission will go a long way toward justifying the purchase process emotional like this. Aston does not offer a blind spot monitoring or adaptive cruise control, is likely to provide means just as many for the allocation of 911 as you can with credit for the Porsche lineup.

But what we have said from the 2006 Aston Martin V8 Vantage and 2005 Porsche 911 is still true 10 years later:

"Option here is detailed in Savile Row tailoring versus Hugo Boss off the rack. If issues like enough because you've tried them both, and if you can afford it either, and you'll be happier in the Aston Martin."

Although cruisers across the country more relaxed and elegant present in the Aston Martin lineup, and when more practical and a little faster, and more efficient 911 lineup no longer holds the appeal, a low-volume, fun to drive may be a V8 Vantage GT's a good addition to the garage MULTICAR if I was not bought the Aston before and if the plots GT model, and look in the directory.
