Car Stuff: Aston Martin V8 Vantage;
Yup, the cheapest of the Aston lineup. Too Bad it's not actually cheap...starting at $140,000. Styled like all modern Astons, beautfully. Performing like all modern Astons, like we can only dream about. Handbuilt. Glorious sounding 340 bhp V8. 186 mph top speed with 5.1 seconds to 60. What more could you ask for in a car?
This is supposed to be the smaller, tighter more focused of the Astons. As such it was tuned at the Nurburgring (a 13 mile 147 corner widowmaker of a track in Germany). As well as the rest of the Astons it's quite possibly the best looking car of all time. It's only got two seats but that doesn't stop it from being somewhat practical, it's got a hatchback. Yeah, I want one.
