Aston Martin resurrected the Vantage name as a stand-alone model in 2005. Previously used to denote a more powerful variant of an existing nameplate, the Vantage is a grand tourer, just like the DB9 that slotted above it during the period. This particular 2009 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Coupe bears only 8,200 miles on its wheels and is said to have received a recent tune-up, as well as full maintenance done approximately four months ago. If you've ever wanted to channel your inner James Bond fantasies, just buy this car and let your imagination run riot, albeit within the confines of the law.
Exterior and Interior
This particular 2009 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Coupe wears a beautiful gray suit. In fact, an Aston Martin is one of the few cars that can make gray look beautiful. That's no surprise, given that the design of the Vantage is the work of two prolific automotive designers, namely Ian Callum and Henrik Fisker. The car rolls on silver multi-spoke alloy wheels shod with low-profile performance rubber. Behind the wheels lurk a set of red brake calipers that can grip down with utmost potency when required. The leather-lined cabin of this 2009 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Coupe imbues its occupants with true British grand tourer luxury. As you slide into the power-adjustable driver's seat, the first thing to catch your eye will be the signature Aston Martin analog instrument cluster from this era. Sporting a set of contra-rotating speedometer and tachometer needles, it truly is mesmerizing to watch them in action. Then, we shift our focus to the center console, where we find automatic climate control with air conditioning, a radio with a CD player, and an analog clock. There's one more thing that's worth mentioning, and that's the gear shifter. Yes, it's a good old manual transmission, and sneaking a look into the driver's footwell reveals three metal and rubber-clad pedals waiting to be worked by an enthusiastic driver.
Engine
The Vantage was offered with V8 and V12 engine options. This 2009 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Coupe goes with the smaller engine, as you would glean from the name. However, don't think that means it's slow. On the contrary, its 4.7L naturally aspirated unit can still deliver an impressive 420hp at 7,000rpm, along with 347lnb-ft at 5,750rpm. Sent to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transmission, you'll be having the time of your life as the engine howls and wails its way through the rev range.
Inspection
The 2014 Aston Martin Vanquish Volante represents one of the most dramatic expressions of Aston Martin’s grand-touring formula, combining a naturally aspirated V12 with open-air motoring and unmistakably elegant British styling. This example takes that character in a more personalized direction, pairing its factory Sunlight Silver Metallic finish beneath a silver vinyl wrap with Chancellor Red upholstery, extensive carbon fiber detailing, aftermarket wheels, suspension upgrades, and an aftermarket exhaust. Showing approximately 50,039 miles, it also brings desirable touches such as Bang & Olufsen BeoSound audio, embroidered Vanquish headrests, quilted upholstery accents, and a 2+2 seating configuration.
