Aston Martin V12 Vantage




There's a new kid on the block. Meet the Aston Martin V12 Vantage. First of all, when you get in to this car, you know you're in something extremely luxurious. And second of all, it doesn't take, long to notice that you piloting 510 horsepower V12 engine sports car by the noise. And that's not all, this car only weighs 3700 lbs. But best of all, press the Start button and you will rise to a top speed of 190 mph. And then, press the Sport button and it seems that you have just kicked of 20 afterburners. But the sad thing is that it takes a firm hand to charge gears that go up to 6. And also, Aston has lowered the suspension by 0.6. in. from the the V8 Vantage, along with 45% stiffer springs, well, that was required, especially on the rear to accommodate the bigger tires. The tires on the front are 255/35ZR-19 ones. It is the most focused Aston you can buy today, with exceptional engineering.
