British luxury car manufacturer Aston Martin has used the name Aston Martin Vantage name to indicate a vehicle that is a high-performance version of a previous model made. An example of this would be the Vantage manufactured on 1972 – 1973, as this was a version of the Aston Martin DBS with straight-6 power.

The Vantage usually includes a grille that is similar to the DB6 but with a different front clip with 2 headlights. The Aston Martin V8 Vantage was introduced in 2005 at the Geneva Motor Show for the 2006 model year. This two seater coupé with two doors has both strength and lightness with its bonded aluminum body. 2008 saw some changes in the Aston Martin Vantage, including the transmission, engine, appearance, and suspension. A thinner liner allows a larger 4.7 L engine fuel capacity. There was also an increased cylinder bore and stroke, resulting to a modified total displacement of 4735 cc. The 2008 model also saw a modification in the dry sump lubrication system.

Base MSRP for New Aston Martin Vantage: $120,350
Estimated MPG for New Aston Martin Vantage: 13 City/19 Hwy
Available Trims: Coupe, Roadster

Aston Martin Vantage Review

This Hot Rod aka “Foose Coupe” showed its true colors at the 2006 SEMA Show. After the show, this car has gotten incredible reviews from the public. The Coupe has your every day’s needs from air conditioning to its very own power windows and doors.

When you buy your coupe you can customize the paint scheme and graphic design as your own. You can also add an engine from mild to wild to fulfill your dream car. I would recommend this car for people who are rough around the edges.

This Kia SUV was introduced into the market in 2008 at the North American International Auto Show as a production model for the previously released concept car Kia Mesa (which was launched at the 2005 North American International Auto Show). The Borrego is also named Mohave.
