[FlowPhille]

Song name at 0:55???

[ryan97303]

haha i was so scared win he was driving through the scrapyard

[yo93yeah]

thiis guy won le mans o.0 ???

[esca8652]

Still waiting on mine to show up!! Been almost 4 years.

[ianrkav]

@esca8652 There's plenty used one's available!

[gozala007]

This is the best car in the world!!!

[xchrisbobisx]

dont think anyone can comment on how this car sounds from listening to it on youtube. people are just jumping on the sound bandwagon because topgear and 5thgear say it sounds nice. on another note. this car is going for 65-70k which is amazing to me more than half of its MSRP gone

[marksapollo]

Easily the BEST of Astons range, small, and because of this those rear sholders just scream power...... By far it's the best looking. Sure it's not a 911 or an R8 but you have Aston Martin on the bonnet!!!!

[esca8652]

@marksapollo It looks better than a 911 or an R8, in my opinion.

[MrIglaq]

Does anyone know the name of that sound track from 0.55 min?

[mikeb1444]

Sounds brilliant.

[nicazeman]

It costs only few minutes of fear - if you know how to rob a bank :)

[arielatom03]

its rubbish

[StuRaz]

My grandad paid £93k for his in late 06 and turned up by 1st March 07.

[buttnut1080]

I hate the girl on fifth gear. She's so annoying. Her accent makes me dry heave every time she speaks. I don't even think she actually works there. She just sits around and they can't get her to leave. I bet she doesn't even get paid; she just thinks she does.

[mikeb1444]

@buttnut1080

You should see how she looks in the review of th Ferrari California.

[buttnut1080]

Yeah I'm sure she's discusting

[mikeb1444]

@buttnut1080

Whatever.

[DeepCore214]

the california is like 4 times the price lol

[xmodrock]

.. ford owns Aston Maritn... its cool.. they have like a 50% share.. hence the V8 :-P

[freddie249]

Foed sold AM a while ago. It's now owned by Prodrive and Dave Richards of Rally/F1 fame.

[xmodrock]

not when that car was designed.. :-P still has a ford V8 in my book

[freddie249]

Hmmm.... Well maybe. But the engine itself was manufactured by AM in Cologne with a dry sump racing spec lubrucation unit.

But, yes, the AJ V8 engine on which it was based was Ford :D.

[xmodrock]

... i have no response.. lmao.. ford produces some of their V8s in cologne.. and im glad someone is willing to admit that AM's v8 was based on a ford V8...

[ThatFelicitygirl]

Most beautiful car ever built. I'll never own one and guess what?  I don't care. I'm just happy it exists.

[tdyduch13]

yea i had my sights and dreams on an aston martin dbs however 250k + is not exactly affordable price range lol.... you can find alot of good deals on the v8 vantage and it is still sexy as fuck... aston martin is the best...more class than any other car... of course thats just my opinion ...

[wildstylechef]

I'm sorry wanks but sound, looks, and half decent power in the real world of 80 mph speed limits, the Austin Martin beats all. especially with aftermarket performance you can get 400 plus HP

[deepWestSide]

im thinking about buying a used one, 12,000 miles, for 55,000 :)

[AM007009]

do it, in a few years, Im taking out a loan to get one. for hopefully $40K or $50k for a 4.7

[goldenbuds]

where are you gonna get one at that price i've seen them for $80,000+ the 08's

[hasmanDUDE]

my dads friends got one im going in it soon

[tacosrgood484]

i saw one of these just the other day they're real nice i think

[duansinan]

Aston Martin is an exotic car, Bmw is a good car. that is the price difference. cant compare.

[TheRealist01]

Aston Martin Vantage Engine: Eight Cilinder V8 0-60mph/100kph: 4.8 sec Power: 420HP Top Speed: 180mph Price: £87.500/€100.000/$150.000 (estimate) BMW M3 Engine: Eight Cilinder V8 0-60mph/100kph: 4.7 sec Power: 414HP Top Speed: 155mph Price: £49,995/€55.000/$80.000 (estimate)

[FtwJammie]

Aston has 380, or the one on top gear did

[StuRaz]

The engine has been uprated to 4.7 litres now thus the increase in power.

[LEEJIMM]

awesome carrr

[bigmangiff]

this car is pretty good lookin:)

[GSXRReaper]

this car kicks ass

[CineFox6233]

Porsche owned by Aston

[SeigeCJ]

he can't hear that V8 he most be getting deaf then with his old age!!!

[GoodMarilynManson]

Did you have ever heard the sound of the engine when you press the start button? Did you have ever driven an Aston Martin? This is not a car this is an wonderful feeling.I have driven the Porsche 911 Turbo,The only thing that i can say, Vantage look better than 911 but when you drive the Porsche you have the feeling that is easier to handle. That's just my opinion, that can change from person to person.

[norra124]

Omfg Ford fucks everything up, even volvo is fucked up now thanks to ford

[nickryals]

Ford no longer owns Aston Martin. They sold them a while back. To who and exactly when, I'm not sure.

[MikeRoin]

Sold to a consortium headed by a Brit called Dave Richards who runs Prodrive.

[mas4eva]

Mate, volvo was always fucked up! and Aston is Privately owned now. The DBRS was made by Prodrive!

[norra124]

Yeah I know, it's some racing guy who owns aston martin now, but why is volvo and why was it always fucked up:P They are robust, good looking and strong cars

[eahs07]

tiff needell not tigg needel

[whiteboyfrankie]

beutiful car

[malcrew]

Tiff is the Man! Love the way he drives the cars.

[FoundingNemo]

then i am afraid u really suck at drivin if u think hes a pro lol

[paulusandronicus]

Well if getting a 3rd at the 24hrs of Le Mans doesn't qualify him as a pro then I don't know what does.

[FoundingNemo]

Britz are gay fagz !

[TangoR34]

I thought u r american when u say that but i'm wrong, u r not human at all!

[FoundingNemo]

this was the most borin video ever ! horrible

[Denisdog34]

NO, I think, it is rather interesting...

[markimbr]

C A R A L H O

loko demais

[artofwheels]

stylishious vid!

[mercclkblack]

i cant remember wanting anything as badly as i want that aston

[andyjhun877]

hi Skimaniac05, i've just bought one in a deep red with paddle shift so if you're ever in manchester then i'd happily take you out for a spin, better than my porsche 911 (997)anyday. cheers pete

[albaniancandy]

i wouldnt say the most wanted sports car in the world. dont forget bugatti, ferrari, lambo's or even the muscle cars of america

[gtiturbo11]

tool

[Lyncherrr]

sports car...super car...difference. Vantage, some porsche's, BMW, Chevrolet corvette, new skyline...sports cars.

[FoundingNemo]

ur rite ! fuckin liar Tiff is lol...he just a fag n dont no shit about cars

[wowitsmaurice]

is this Jeremy Clarkson?

[kentafication]

His name is Tigg Needell, he is nodoubt a better presentor and driver than Jeremy C.

[wowitsmaurice]

actually i meant if findingnemo is JC

[redlaurieyellow]

what the fuck this guy sucks Jeremy Clarkson is way better in Top Gear

[FoundingNemo]

are u stupid?...tht will answer ur question hopefully lol

[DreadRaptor85]

My cousin bought a grey Vantage, but he said the waiting list was 1 year. I thought it was 2 years?

[prOgrenadier]

If you buy it from the dealer, you get it when you buy it pretty much...the waiting list is for the ones you choose the options on, I believe.

[DreadRaptor85]

He got the exact same color scheme as the DBS from Casino Royale. Fag won't let anybody else drive it though. :\

[prOgrenadier]

Haha, tell him congrats...I wouldn't let anyone else drive it either.

[FoundingNemo]

cuz ur a cheape fuck thts y

[StuRaz]

Not exactly. My grandad bought one with his own specifications on the 9th December 06 and it arrived on the 7th March 07 for the new reg. I don't always trust the claimed waiting list for cars.

[skimaniac05]

i want that noise in my life. i love that car to pieces just from looking at it, and i really want one badly.

[jas03000]

I wanna bang the blonde brit lol.

[Seantech1]

Fifth Gear is crap... Top Gear IS MILES BETTER!! Oh yeah, and funnier. (Fifth Gear is a poor man's Top Gear)

[highclerist]

sure production value of TG is way better, but watching complete idiots trying to drive the cars can be painful to watch (Jeremy Clarkson = British equivalent of a redneck)

[Christian505]

I agree! Except I would take it a step further and say some of the photography in Top Gear is terrible.

[eddgreen91]

100% agree with you there mate can't stand fifth gear, makes my week watching TG on a sunday night.

[Poler777]

Top Gear is for people who dream about the car being tested. Fifth Gear is for people who want to actually buy the car being tested. I like both shows, but FG's reviews are just so much more accurate in describing the actual feel of the car. But what do you expect. TG has the Simon Cowell of cars-Jeremy Clarkson, and some other guy that used to blow up campers on science TV. FG has Tiff Needle, ...how many times has he run (and won) Le Mans?

[CORTICEIRO0]

@Poler777 plus Top Gear is hilarious xb

[pistadifiorano]

sounds like a dream!

[matthesvk]

Sure, it´s V8.

[kneelio321]

hahahaha!!!

[ubustang]

True, but fuel economy is for Toyota's and Honda's. The C02 produced by all of the sports cars of the world are dwarfed by the amount produced by other vehicles; they account for less than 10% of automotive C02, and less than mainly because they aren't driven as often. So its stupid to complain about emissions, cause they don't matter.

[43painter]

You're absolutly right, but the people who use their cars purely for transportation from A to B have a goal, a destiny, but sportscars??? It's a pure anacronism! It is out of this day and age to want to go fast and furious with that knowledge in the back of your head that's not really necessary AND you're contributing to the polution! This line of sports could find their thrill elsewere!! But: I know, I know!! Its all about the money and power. AGAIN!!!

[dannyg001]

Money and power? Well, i have neither of those things, but i still enjoy driving. These days however, i tend to cycle, take the bus, or walk. In addition, i always use energy saving lightbulbs, compost, rarely use heating (which sucks, cos it's pretty cold here), and a whole load of other annoying stuff. But on the occasions when i do go out for a drive, i shouldn't be made to feel guilty. Enthusiasts like myself simply are not the problem. They barely produce any emmisions.

[dannyg001]

also, saying that enthusiasts could get their thrills elsewhere is a bit ignorant/patronising. It's like saying that footballers could get the same enjoyment from competition knitting, and thus saving the environment, and cash, by not building and powering stadiums. If someone told me i couldn't drive (ever again) i'd be inclined to care a lot less about their world, especially considering my otherwise miniscule carbon footprint. The basic point of my rant? Don't stereotype us! :)

[AlexJamesB]

so ur an enviromentlist, another one banging on about the enviroment, again?!

[43painter]

Dear James, To react on this never ending story: A story about ignorance and short-term-thinking

What comes out of the rear of each vehicle we don't see and therefor it doesn't realy exist! Arrogance! Its necessary to keep on talking about those things, like the HUNGER in the world. Small-scale improvements ARE improvements. The temptation is always tooo big for us humans to go in to that car again and drive it, inspite of the emissions.

[DeltaGaryGordon]

well maybe if there werent so many fucking people in the world wed have enough food. you pro-abortion liberal scum

[DeltaGaryGordon]

*anti-abortion, not pro

[LIVERPOOLSCOTTISH]

Yep-another bleeding heart lentil muncher! They are such miserable sods aren't they?! Life would be totally dull & miserable if they had their way! Thank God for Aston Martins for injecting so much beauty into our lives-when you see one it makes your day-it REALLY does! :)

[LIVERPOOLSCOTTISH]

What a miserable bugger you are! No doubt you'd have everyone driving around in Gee Wizz electric cars! What a miserable, annodine world we would live in if people like you had your way! :(

[AlexJamesB]

do u mean me of the enviromentilist?

[LIVERPOOLSCOTTISH]

The environmentalist of course....

[Fraiserd]

Nice Ferrari

[geomaticstech]

ford used to own aston martin, now AM is owned by serval different owners now

[jsyoo]

Is that true that Aston Martin is owned by Ford now???

[Elvasilon]

They Used to not Anymore. They Still Own Jaguar, Volvo, Mazda, and Land Rover. Ford Motor Co Resurrected most of these Companies.

[schecterbassman]

By far my favorite Aston...still not entuirely sure why, but that doesn't matter

[topgearfan1234]

Proof that the British can make good cars (with ford's budget.) Now it's with prodrive. all Astons look very much alike.

[mordeth14]

i'm in love with this car

[Huib1992]

I like the V8 Vantage, but I LOVE the DB9. I can't stand the fact that people keep on talking about that it has more BHP than a Carrera S... cuz what do those extra BHP's matter if the Carrera S is still faster?

[scotty2trucks]

Awesome car!!!

[LilithFilth]

F#ck that's sexy!

[jaymacc7707]

he's driving on the wrong side of the road......lol

[ByzanKnight]

Nurburgring , the vantage is up there with the 911 and even better at seom points.

Can u resist that engine sound? FTW fken best sound ever lol even up there a lambo LP640, spoils of war lol :P

[Symbrio]

911 S is a little bit faster and civilised, but you're right about sound. Not to mention it looks apsolutely fabulous!
