[@IndianMartialArtist]

First time I've been surprised by a power bump in a while. At 15k less than a Porsche 911 turbo s somehow Aston have made something that's "good value for money" 😂

[@993mike]

I'm a life-long diehard Porsche nut, but man - if you have the cash for a hyper fast GT daily driver, this car sure pushes all the buttons. The Porsche turbo is a premium, superfast and reliable ride, but it wouldn't even get noticed parked alongside this beauty.

[@stanlee3619]

​@@993mike The Aston is likely to be less reliable, and surely will depreciate at a much higher rate. In its favor, you can likely walk into an Aston dealership and order one right away, instead of playing the Porsche dealership games.

Should have put a manual transmission option in it since it’s clearly not all about the stats which I appreciate as stat sheets are overrated. Make a drivers car out of the Vantage. Jethro is hilarious with 500% quote.

[@lefroy1]

Beautiful spec on this one. Be nice to see it do well.

[@Stevieboy130664]

I think they're rationalising about using an auto gearbox - developing a twin clutch gearbox would cost too much given the numbers.

[@bjwal6]

“Compact tension” is a great way to describe it. I like it.

[@SykesAJ]

It jumped out at me that Aston pined for a bespoke tyre programme on this, yet Gordon Murray specified off-the-rack tyres for the T.50 so owners aren’t lumped with massive bills or unobtainable rubber. I think Gordon’s got the right idea there.

[@martyn_g]

He has the right idea full stop. Manual only, too😉

[@HiddenWen]

Which is funny since if you can afford a T.50, you would have no issues paying for bespoke tires.

[@TheImperfectGuy]

​@@HiddenWenbut Gordon is endlessly frustrated with the F1 owners that garage queen the cars once they themselves and the parts reached astronomical prices are. so he did everything possible that take excuses away to not drive the T.50 that includes parts' availability and prices

[@tastypymp1287]

Hello? Ferrari? Hi, yeah, about my deposit in the Roma....

[@JC-kz3ut]

Marek slapped the DBS when he took over from the DB9 team, but has been in the shadows since then. With the DB12 and Vantage, he has really announced his legacy at Aston. Both cars are going to age well and WILL be classics in the future. Shame about the engineering decision to drop the manual though. The new vantage with a manual gearbox would have been THE perfect car.

[@mattb4353]

One of the best looking Astons I've ever seen. If a manual does come , then for me it's then a very special car indeed.

[@nairbyad7188]

well done! - perhaps in the future, you will attend to the difference in volume between studio mic and with car mic.

[@nattcharles]

Gorgeous car love it. Not convinced about the continued choice or reason for it of auto box over DCT though. Plenty of high powered high torque cars running DCT, Ferrari Roma, 296, SF99, Acura/NSX, Lamborghini Reveulto, Mercedes AMG GT etc. Don’t think its anything to do with power, toque or character more to do with cost.

[@martyn_g]

Do away with it all together. Manual only please - like the GMA T.50

[@Pondjumper1]

Must admit I was distracted by him dropping his Ts. Aston Mar-in?

[@DominicChang-h3b]

M177 engine always had more power except Aston couldn't bump up the power before due to their agreement with AMG. It is only because an adjustment of AMG partnership that allowed them to tune it in house. The face lift on the other hand is trying too hard to build in the one-77 design element which the original vantage was not built for. The original Vantage based off the DB10 which is so much sleeker... It looks more nose heavy... Not to mention the lack of a manual makes this car fairly quick to become obsolete which is commensurate with the depreciation of AM cars right now...

[@Soraviel]

Beautiful car and it's slick with performance etc

[@Idaho_Spud]

One of my favorite things with a new car launch is to hear the designers talk about the details and the decisions they made. Would have love to have heard that designer crap on. Or did you say crack on?

[@QBIX04]

What is the curb weight? It's cool that they improve everything but it doesn't sound like weight improvement (I mean weight loss)

[@martyndyson9501]

That's a lot of car for the price compared to some brands, and it looks better than 95% of ALL sports and hyper cars, the biggest change for me is the interior, the extra power could always be added with a tune and other mods but you almost had to keep that old dated 2nd class dash and infotainment. I would take it over the equivalent Porsche anyday, the Porsche is a master piece but you see so many about nowadays, I'm just wondering how close to the £200,000 you need to get with extras, upgrades and add ons in the car configurator to get one that looks this good?? I'm sure this version here isn't base...

[@almac9203]

Aston has always looked better than the Porsche but paying customers go with Porsche. Porsche builds great drivers cars that are dependable.

[@lbco5229]

[@makug]

While I think it's the best FR configuration car in the world, the amount of computer assistance is a bit of a turn off. If there's a button to shut off EVERYTHING that's an assistance off, I'd rather have that and would likely drive it like that most of the time. Real feel of man and machine....don't kill that.

[@Superduperloopo]

Whats the difference between this model and DB12?

[@erickcarlson9245]

I wish the voiceover volume level better matched the rest of the video.

[@RUNMDC]

Everything on this facelift is great but it needed a buttlift as well. The rear bumper design is the same and well, the rear is just as important as the front because it’s what most drivers will be seeing. Maybe it’s just me but it seems to not flow with the rest of the car.

[@Pizzarolles_.]

I think the back is perfect

[@chrispysnappz]

Aston Martin/ most people need to change the way the view/promote the Vantage. It is no longer an entry car, it is the Sports version against the DB12 which is GT version. Yes, it might cost less, but it has a different vision and cost is cost. It looks great, the idea sounds great, but I agree, I will only buy one with a manual. You are cutting out a whole market and customer base.

Aston should really look into F1 team for more. I hope this will be enough to fight refreshed 911 Turbo (when it comes out), and carry own weight. Ferrari and McLaren already gone hybrid, Porsche about too, hopefully Aston can keep up.

Why not focus on making it fun to drive, instead of faster? I don't understand why you'd buy this over it's many competitor which have better dynamics inherently. At least it's exterior is still pretty, though I'd rather look at a gauge then another screen that'll look ancient in 3 years.

[@maestroadam]

Because this is not a Mazda Miata

[@SSRstudio]

because fun to drive factor is more important , for better numbers you can buy Porsche or Tesla ))))

[@web]

If you watch other coverage - half of the promo materials for the journalists was about how the car is about playful character. Even here it was mentioned about “at and beyond the limit” April test drives would be highly anticipated

[@temwananinkana3419]

In agreement. I would prefer the vantage to have analog dials , less or non steering wheel buttons and the manual gearbox they just ditched.

[@TheUrbanEpicure]

Wait, didn't an entirely new one come out just a few years ago? So that was a dud, and needed a complete redesign?

[@MM-xr6tz]

Still feels like an old mans brand. Will date and drop in price faster than Katy Price would spend a lottery win.

[@AR-rs2dy]

As Ferraris get uglier, more fussy, heavier, hybridised with stupid driver controls, Astons keep it simple but bring their cars bang up to date in terms of focus, power and great controls. To me they no longer look like the poor relation and I think I'd take one over the Roma. Only problem is, Vantage or DB12 but realistically that's never going to be a problem that troubles me. If I'm nitpicking then I'd say that they are getting less pretty and more brutish. Have to hand it to Lance Stroll. At first I thought this is just another man with way more money than sense who wants to take a mahoosive fortune and turn it into a tiny one but he's pulling Aston (F1 and road cars) kicking and screaming into the 21st century.

[@JourneyStand]

Kinda wish they went all in on the mid engine layout

[@martyn_g]

Nup. It might be the best format for ultimate performance, but it’s not Aston’s thing - most of their cars have been front engined. Like 911’s are always rear engined - I also like the aesthetic of a long nose - mid engined cars always look awkward to me, and don’t excite me at all.
