  • just a typical ricer flyby

  • This is ironic. I was involved in the devlopment of the Aston Martin Vantage V8 and the 928 was used as a benchmark to measureup the transaxle system at Gaydon

  • @MarquisRex Nice post... thank you. I have an 86.5 928S. Best money I've ever spent. I like historical trivia like you posted. Thx. again.

  • "VS"?

  • Lol nice "race"

  • did the person driving the aston martin knew they where racing?

  • Hahaha....next time make sure your opponent knows its a race....ricer in a Porsche?

  • I have got a very good hint for you to keeping the nice old Engine in good shape with todays ultra dry eco fuels: Use 1:100 API TC two stroke oil / fuel mix as regular driving fuel, that keeps the old fuel-system gaskets, rubber parts, alloy parts etc... and cast iron metal surfaces of those vintage engines in excellent shape...and it also lubricates the valves and upper piston regions. Most Porsche vintage owners in Germany do so :) Also keeps carbs and tank clean and rustfree

  • @Klottelitsch Thank you for that tidbit of information. I'll have to start doing that to my classic car when i get back home from germany.

  • @Klottelitsch Yes, but does it mess up the catalytic converter? That's a concern here in the U.S.

  • If aston was racing we would hear screaming exhaust, but nothing was there :)

  • The Aston Martin would not smoke the 928 because the 928 used to be the fastest production car going 182 mph

  • I was involved in the development of the engine of the Aston Martin V8 Vantage engine (AM5/AJ37) and the irony is that the Porsche 928 was used as a benchmark vehicle for the transaxle layout!

  • I FEEL SO LIED TO

  • There was no fucking race !!!

  • wow good job you get a special ed. award for winning that one...champ

  • this is hardly a race, if it was the aston martin would smoke you

  • More like "928 passes Aston martin V8"

  • The title of this video is bullcrap. That Aston was minding his own business and wasn't even aware of the 928. Heck I could run past a fully stopped 911. You wouldn't make a video and call it middle aged dude VS 911 would you?.. or maybe you would. And, on another note, If I had a penny for every little kid in some douchy racer trying to pass me I'd be rich by now.

  • Nice ricer fly-by, douchebag...

  • It would be a close race

  • Ps Must admit 928 is my ultimate dream car,love them!!!!!

  • The guy in the Aston never tried. He's probably sick to death of boy racers in old scrappers trying to prove something. Well done Bond

  • 928 vs also Opel Omega, what a race!!

  • Shouldnt the title just say Porsche 928 overtakes Atson Martin V8 on motorway lol. Whats with the v's.

  • I would pay the owner to do a remake titled "Porsche 928 VS Very Thick Brick Wall"

  • la 928 est puissante certes, mais à mon humble avis, le type dans son aston, voulait pas faire parler la poudre.....

  • Comment removed

  • Wow, great race!!! Porsche vs Porsche because the Aston Martin wasnt paying you any mind...............LAME!!!!!!!

  • aston martin vartage vs 928 gts is a seriously close match, both will hit just over 171mph and both will hit 60mph in around 5 seconds.

    Aston wouldnt have much of a chance of beating the 928.

    I would love to see a 0-top speed race in straight line.

    :)

  • You are dumb as shit.. Official specs combined with my dad having rented one out.. I can tell you the V8 Vantage has 380BHP, 0-60 in 3.8 seconds and a top speed of 186.. That performance blows the 928 back to its release date... Lets not embarress the 928 and talk about the sound of the Aston :)

  • 3.8..... bit quick for a vantage!!!!

    they are horrid car in my opinion, and aston settles for 4.5 to 60mph, as for 186, thats db9 territory and the vantage was meant to be slightly lower, so it settles for 178mph.

    928 is such an awsome car and one i admire, yes the vantage has a sound to keep you in heaven, but the 928s grumble from the v8 is enough to send me crazy! such a more 'meaty engine'.

    if i could own either, it would be the 928 gt from 1992 :)

  • i agree on the 380bhp as 928 gt has 335 (gts as shown has 350)

    but the aston just feels a bit too much like the girls edition to the aston martin family :L

  • You've got a point there. In the time we had it hired out we tested some of the facts, we did get it to 60 in 4.4 seconds, with wheelspin... The aston does do 186 easy, we raced the new m3 e92 on a dual carriageway, up to 160, obviously the bmw was limited to 155 but the speed it got there, it was a job keeping up. I know alot of facts about the aston and having seen them in action, i know exactly what im talking about. It's not rapid, but it's surely quick enough.

  • yeah i wouldnt turn down the offer of the aston by many means!!! its a very nice car, and your lucky to have raced an e92, my dads old 964 turbo had a rave with an esprit turbo gt and got it to 145mph but then i began to feel the 911 was a little hasty at higher end of the table.

    i think the aston martin may do 186 if your refering to the N400 which is certianly a pretty car.

    if i was to get an aston, i would go back in time for an 1986 vantage :) 181mph cabriolet :) 5.7!

  • Okay mate I think you've nailed the head with that one, thats what it must have been. Cos I just re checked specs from the site and top speed for normal is 180mph... None the less it would kil the 928.. Anyone seen the new 911SC.... ORGY ON WHEELS.

  • yep the limited edition is the sexiest porkie ive seen yet!! shame theres only 250 of them and they cost £115k a piece :( but wow 10/10 for remaking a legend that is the carrera rs-the greatest 911 classic ever.

    the n400 would kill the 928 at the start and keep the lead yes, however for cruising, i would take the 928 it is a smooth sporty tourer! witha 5.8L soundtrack!

  • Thats true though.. The Aston is far too small and cramped, not exactly comfortable if you're in it for long with no adrenaline rush.

  • heh.. it's one of those " if it wasdoing 140 and I was going 145 I would have easly passed him"

  • Pretty sure the Aston woulda won if it felt like it.

  • i smoked a bugatti today. it was parked on the side.

  • LOL

  • wtf ? ,

  • I didnt see VS anything.

  • LAME!

  • VS? The Aston is just cruising along lol

  • Aston Martin all the way.

  • haha, what a joke of a video

  • Good job you overtook an aston

  • did you look the camera away because the martin caught up and past you like no tomrrow?

  • Dude.. this isnt special.. you were just overtaking it.. I one overtook a bugatti veyron on my bike :O

  • Yeah I remember the day when I totally smoked an F40 while walking pasted it, and I wasn't even trying to walk fast.

  • Lame.

  • Any car could pass an aston martin but if they were to race the aston martin would waste this porsche!

  • Ppl who upload this kind of vs vids, are usually sorry loosers, or have a problem with the definition of what a joke is.

    Nope, it's not funny to write that this was a race, and no; it wasn't a race. I have overtaklen a Porsche in a Fiat 500, but that sure as hell doesn't mean the Fiat is the faster car. It only means that the driver of the Fiat (a mate of mine), was driving over the speed limit, while the Porsche wasn't.

  • i could make i video of my jeep passing a AM too, if it was parked on the side of the road. 928s are way cooler though.

  • Eventhough i rather like the AM's, i have to agree with you on that one. 928 are wonderful:-)

  • you know it has to be both people wanting to race for it to be legit

  • You overtook an Aston !!!!!!!! I overtake cars in my 928 all the time....

  • this isnt a race,

  • Wheres the race?? Why did you even bother?

    Aston V8 was cruising cool and all you show is your infantile insecurities. You could have at least called your vid "Look at the luxuriously appointed 928 interior" and showed off the digital dash trip computer, memory seats or something. Would have gathered more respect. Silly twit.

  • What the hell  where was the "VS" in this? The Aston moved over to the left so the guys could pass thats somehow a race?

  • What a complete nob.. I love when people post.. look I am beating a better car.. and their not even looking, or even racing.. because they probably have a hot chick in their lap.. or listening to some good tunes with an attitude of "What" "You want a race" Please...

  • fail?

  • nice job dufise but i dont think that car was raceing.

  • How could you tell ? :))

  • on a normal day a new v8 could reck a 928. it dose evry thing better and the fact that you could not hear the aston peans sompthing. thats how i know

  • i dont think the aston was racing

  • @friendofppl1 it wasn't . Would be a good top end race.

  • @friendofppl1 I dont think neither the driver was thinking about that.

  • ur a knob

  • dude that was not a race. The AM was driving at legal speed....you were driving at.....lets say not legal speed

  • I'm a pure 928 lover however I know that the Aston V8 will eat the 928 gts for breakfast.

  • damn right, im a 928 fan too but it is the way it is

  • @stepahead2be

    Actually, the 0-60 for the aston v8 is anywhere from 4.9-5.1, very similar to the 928 gts. However a v12 aston martin, yeah is obviously faster.

  • @stepahead2be

    Well then you and 30 other people(that thumbed up your comment) don't "know" the car as much as you think.

    I used to work for a large dealership several years ago that carried Porsche, Jaguar, & Aston Martin and used to drive many of the cars on a daily basis.

    As beautiful as the AMV8 and all their cars are, they aren't as quick as everyone perceived them to be. The AMV8 Vantage is a 380hp car weighing in at almost 3,500lbs. InsideLine for example ran a 13.3 @ 106.0 on the 1/4.

  • @stepahead2be the aston is a ironpig and the torqe of the 928 will eat the aston earlyer... i drove one last year the gts 5.4 liter the only problem is the damn automatic gearbox but the old porsche V8 is a way better engine than in the other (british) car ;O)

  • aha , if thats a race , how do you call it if the other car pushes it too ?

    In your logic my porsche GTS video must be : from last position to first , or what :P

  • If Porsche brings back the 928, or Fiat resurrects the X1/9, I wll be the first in line...

  • That wasn't a race.

    That was you overtaking an Aston Martin.

    By your logic I should say that my car is faster that countless Ferrari, Lamborghini and Porsches that I have overtaken on the motorway.

  • Go, GTS, GO!

  • this isn't very cool 10 agreement

  • This is FRENCH 928 GTS => V8 5,4L 350 hp for 1620 kg.

    0-60 mph => 5,2

  • @flavrs French? Meaning you live in france? Because Porsche is German...

  • 9th agreement

  • If you're the only one in the race, it doesn't matter who wins. The Aston wasn't aware you we're racing him.

  • I Agree

  • 2nd agreement

  • 2nd agreement

  • 3rd agreement

  • 4th agreement

  • 5th agreement

  • 6th agreement.

  • 7th agreement.

  • 8th agreement

  • Hairy assholes!

  • Thats 18 seconds of my life i'll never get back.

  • The aston martin almost blown up the engine trying to get you.

  • Dude. He wasn't even racing.

  • Aston got out of the way so you wouldnt tailgate him. But good job, you did technically pass him I suppose.

  • The PORSCHE 928GTS was at this time a high tech GrandTourismo Car with 350hp. But the aston martin is faster!!!

  • so just how fast is it?

  • ok, read the review on the 2007 Vantage. handling is meager, 928 is much better with perfect weight distribution. top speed on Vantage is 175, 0-60 is 4.9. 1987 Porsche 928, top speed 172, 0-60 is 5.5 with 316 horsepower. I would take the 928 any day, pick a nice one up for 10 grand versus 110,000 for the vantage.

  • 928GTS makes 346HP but is lighter

  • The Aston is really only great cause its a Aston Martin. The 928 was really ahead of its time, porsche was really proud with what they did, and I hope they do bring the 928 back.

  • There is a new 928 on it's way from what I know ...

  • look a 928 would never beat a vantage stock lol

  • read my comment fool, very similiar, 928, 90,000 less and better handling. better quality build, vantage is a ford for gawd's sake.

  • its an aston martin

  • aston is owned by ford.

    however, it is independently run and each car is built by hand... plus they are some of the most beautiful cars in the world. so i wouldn't hate on aston simply because it is a ford brand.

  • aston isn't owned by ford anymore... they hold an 10% stake or something, but aston was bought by 2 investment companies (Investment Dar and Adeem Investment Co) in a deal lead by Prodrive

  • Eh, whats wrong with a Ford again? Last I checked it was a Ford that kicked Ferrari, Lambo, and Porsches at LeMans for like a decade when they were into that kind of thing. I'll take a GT over an enzo any day.

  • There's nothing wrong with the british built GT40

    Ford is in the ALMS GT2 class with a Ford GT.

    They get spanked by porsches, ferraris, and corvettes...

  • Lol. Porsche has more victories at Le Mans than any other car manufacturer. 16 and the second place is 9.

  • Last time I checked Ford had a 7 liter car in the 1960's and Porsches 908 was 2 liters. We lost in by meters. You suck!

  • cool video.. my friends yugo could have blown away that aston

  • ya, what do you own pal? shit!

  • Yes youtube where you can boast about winning a race where you you were the only one racing. The pitfalls of modern web use. How sad it is when children post blatant lies.

  • Yeah, this is all too common. Oh well, when I rule the world I'll have them executed....oh wait. I'm not rich so I've got no shot in politics.

  • I beat an Aston Martin too once, except he didn't know we were racing,lol!

  • cool video, 928 is the fastest way from A to B without having to eat airline food...
