2009 Aston Martin V8 Vantage review

[chickenpax1]

Those two cars are awesome. Those two guys are, well, faggoty. Times two assholes!!

[gyzmooo1]

Just imagine these two clawns as sales man, trying yo sell u one of these cars. No matter how good these cars are I would just walk away, they have no idea :DD

[104overnout]

Got one 2009 of this still just have 2000 miles. Pure automotive eye candy X 2. Mine is black. Gotta drive it more.

[buttnut1080]

This isn't a review. It's over ten minutes of the worst journalism and videomaking I've ever seen. Your car-advice is garbage so let me give you some advice, quit.

[currie115]

would you sit on the monalisa? thats what i though , so dont sit your ass on that car

[HoodooFX]

This reminds me of topgear years back when they did proper car reviews, I'm talking 2004-2005 in and around then, might just be me :L either way, what a noise lol

[aerlingus18]

you just wouldn't expect that noise from that car

[1983misio1983]

hybrid music !

[BankGt5S]

It was assembled in germany? I was lead to believe that they were made and assembled in England.

[aerlingus18]

@BankGt5S just the engine

[2007TypeR]

@BankGt5S They are made in England. These two thick ozzy twat's can't even get their fucking facts straights. They are happy to wank themselves off over how great these cars are but they can't even fucking check some simple facts out?

[jonathanstensberg]

@2007TypeR the engine is built in germany. the car is assembled in england.

[tfozzy319]

orgasm at 5:09 - 5:10

[woteverz123]

why do all australian shows embarrass me

[Airr91]

anyone know the name of the song starting at 8:00

[jjet2112]

I saw one of these in California in white with camel interor it was sweet.

[zapatero39]

after top gear, any carshow seems lame

[StuRaz]

The 4.3l Vantage sounds better I think, despite being less powerful. My Grandad owns one (couple of videos on my channel), such a beautiful machine to behold and drive.

[MrGarratt1]

Pure car porn!

[Erick67630]

this car are not alot of money for me i have one like that is awsome.

[Uberkreig]

If only the coupe didn't have that sickening blue leather!

[iraqiblaze]

@Uberkreig u can pick the interior colour, personaly i like it in red

[acidrain55]

i am pretty sure they are assembled in england.

[jferlm]

@acidrain55 no, the engine is not.

[kekecom]

@jferlm te vantage is much cheaper than the DBS right?

[lizoalex]

I wish i was a billionaire, so fucking bad.

[keezo1234]

What is the name of the song when they go up the mountain?

[ic3berg21]

@keezo1234 Hybrid - Mr Smith (Ultimatum)

[3089280288]

@keezo1234 Matrix OST

[Sleezemaster]

If you have a AM V8 Vantage Coupe and need a car cover, I am selling mine. Location: Southern California. Leave a message/comment on YouTube. best offer over $500. Blue in color. Special order with logos. Retail is over $600. Shipping not available.

[EliteRide1987]

This is a serious chick magnet, elegant and super sport in one car. Aston Martin make most prestige sport cars in the world!!

[aston1bartolotta]

im 13, live in sydney are really priviledged to have one of these. i love it, my dad takes me everywhere in it. but just like the guy said, although in a lambo u look like wanker, in the aston, everybody loves. its pure car, pure elegance

[COCHIAIRWAYS]

aston martin should not be imported to vulgar places such as australia or america.

[CroswhiteK]

@COCHIAIRWAYS I would love to hear your reasoning on this.

[COCHIAIRWAYS]

@CroswhiteK

They don't drive with manual.

[CroswhiteK]

@COCHIAIRWAYS I'm sorry your sentence doesn't make complete sense. Are you saying they don't drive manual cars?

[theerasmusagain]

Loved driving this. It sounds amazing. Took a while to figure out just how to get the automatic going though. Turn key (stupid message comes up) hold the break, press drive, pull lever up, hold break????? Just get a manual......

[88durham]

sorry hang on???? since when was this car made in Germany you idiot! its made in Warwickshire  England, stupid gits!

[sitafreak420]

@88durham engine is from germany, as well as for DBS

[delco714]

why do they sit so close to the wheel?

[jystyle]

best automotive shapes? lol yeah it looks a penis but yeah it looks good regardless

[superfly000]

@jystyle no, the car that actually looks like a penis is the dodge viper. aston is far from that.

[Porsche010]

eye-candy

[MrTiganj123]

i saw an aston martin DB9 brand new for 91 000€

i was shocked

[wreckz189]

i'd love to own the hardtop vantage but would love even more to own it while living in the UK..you always read abt how the british just love their astons and how much silent respect you get on the road..

[TroVirus]

prettiest Aston ever made.

[laceitaliano]

cars are good but those 2 blokes are ragers

[witeit]

YESSSSSSS!!!!!!

[cwirth2011]

people who can afford those cars, know how to spell car **

[Jn183]

Not NBA 18years old player. :)

[MrJamessweet]

Best card ever! My next car...:-)

[shadowscreecher]

eh an aston martin isnt to draw attention... its really to be sleek and smooth. Get an Aston in black. Supposed to be James Bond remember?

[DB7Volante]

@shadowscreecher Well, as much as Aston Martins look absolutely perfect in black (this one especially) Bond drove his Vanquish in silver, and his DBS in a sort of dark silver/ gunmetal-ish color. I do agree, though, that Astons should be black. Or silver, or gunmetal.

[555NaKuL]

@shadowscreecher mate, i ve just been in this car, for a week and i went to central London with this badboy and its not the low key i thought people know what it is people staring, taking photos, bus drivers wanting racers.. Its an amazing machine, only good in small doses mate

[willchen19920929]

@shadowscreecher yo~ I'm ordering a roadster in DBS black with soft top and interier all black~~~~ the car is not here yet, but I hope it will look as cool as I imagine

[StuRaz]

@shadowscreecher Bond never had a Vantage. That's like saying buy a silver Lotus Elise because he used to have an Esprit.

[PandaMagicFTW]

@StuRaz No its different because it looks similar.

[DJK290]

@shadowscreecher

Yea but if you wanna be bond you have to get the Casino Royale Silver.

But if you want black, Onyx Black looks better than Jet Black.

[animeonperseest]

@shadowscreecher bonds aston has always been silver

[High99222]

@animeonperseest gray

[RoyalGrigsby]

Real car people don't sit on cars!

[lukewarm711]

people who can afford these cars can afford to sit on them.

[xchrisbobisx]

interesting, certified used 2005+ db9s only cost about 5-10k more than a v8 vantage. i guess that little row of LED lights are more popular than they appear.

[spartakus463]

like the black one hit me on trafic driving by rich idiot

[magnusnus]

i have this car, its a dream to drive :)

[schecterhaziq]

down gear sucks for me..look at 5.07 ..

[alphie10]

Dad I want that......:P

[kempowarrior]

Anyone up here know the song at the beggining at around 00:38 of the video?

Thank you. Awesome cars = ) I want both of them.

[wesassa]

smartass?

[lifeintheblitz]

If these guys are car experts, they ought to know that their driving positions are horrible. Their distance to the wheel should be arms' length.

[0988509885]

@lifeintheblitz

You want to be relatively close so you can twist more with your arms without them hitting each other in emergency conditions

[dennieb1]

How is the song called at 7.50? it sounds cool

[Medjeed86]

it's called Mona Lisa Overdrive, by Juno Reactor and Don Davis; it's from The Matrix Reloaded Soundtrack.

[SnezicSun]

what a baby ... uhhh

[rocknrollman1234]

Those look gorgeous, but I wish Aston kept the v12 vanquish body in production.

[turbonbc]

beautiful cars

[barthoedemaker]

The styling of the coupe is awesome!

[911GeorgeBush]

Australian accent is so terrible.......

[S2Sturges]

They sound just fine to me, mate..

[etherjoe505]

okay car advice people. if you are blocking out your presenter's rant on 4.7 vs 4.3... you don't understand gearheads. Let the man preach on it!

[quuaa1]

car porn!!

[mkm282]

whats the name of the music at 3:40 ??

[shitheadmuthafucka]

Mona Lisa Over Drive by Juno Reactor and Don Davis, it's from the Matrix Reloaded movie, 10 minute song, the good stuff comes in like halfway thru the song haha

[artilistic]

its from the matrix just look up matrix soundtrack

[TDuda92]

thats what dreams are made of lol

[XMG3]

the presenter is quite annoying... amazingly beautiful car though.

[funkyrocker88]

He's Australian.

[gazelqp]

this car is amazing

this video is very cool

[theshmelo]

That is just an absolutely fantastic car.

[DutchManticore]

I know I'm not very original but I fucking want one :(

[anurek123]

lamborghini lp640 is my fav supercar!! it screams "look at me" i am so cool!!

but aston this car speaks" ka ching... bling bling!!!"

people will be jealous when they see you in this!!

i truly beleive what you see on the startup sequence power beauty and soul. its there, its for real!!! i love Aston martin :D

[doomalz3eem]

09.59 he said that evrey time he drove a super car

bulshit replay

[sootyferrari65]

wots the music at 7.45 onwards

[ZippoZoid]

Sure clemson.. sure..

[Clemsonandcubsfan1]

i am an owner of the car but i like the db9 a bit better although it is a bit pricey but handels better one thing i hate about this car is gas guage u can barley see it and the converdible is not very reliable and the car is a bit bummpy and shakey

[Guitar5525]

Surprisingly affordable.

This car can be bought used at around $110 000-$150 000, leased at around 2k a month, and is worth every penny.

Amazing car.

[playermc17]

The Best car....

[scaremenga]

Quite an affordable car at around 100k, much nicer inside and more refined exterior than the SL-class, Audi R8, and other comparable cars. Of course, this is all opinion.

[osirisjak242]

I want all of the Aston Martin, pure beauty...

[dannyclub09]

and the handling is good

[dannyclub09]

Astons are my favourite cars and i do like the v8 vantage's design, it looks really cool but it isn't that fast it only go's 175mph

[patfromozZ]

thought it was good for 186mph (300kmh)?

[AM007009]

are you really ever going to go that fast though?

[patfromozZ]

well i wouldnt buy something i liked less just because it can go 10 or 15mph faster.

[bsg1206]

I honestly can't think of a single place where I would ever get a car above 130 mph.

[tmat04]

does the new 4.7 liter engine sound better than the previous 4.3?

[postie502]

Jojo,u really are lispthisth ! Tothsally outrageouth bethaviour.......

[patfromozZ]

lmao :)

[JoJoTia3rd]

really is a nicth asthon martin...............

[postie502]

And people emmigrate to Australia because ?..........they like gay,lisping indigenous people flouncing about,doing a poor mans imitation of Top Gear ? Arn't Aussies supposed to be macho ? wotta pair of POOFS !

[postie502]

Two superb cars,made even more entertaining by the two reviewers........Shane Warne's gay uncle,and his sidekick,Cwiss Eubanth's gay aboriginal cousin.Never in the history of car reviews have I seen such a pair of limp wristed,raving,gay presenters.They make Hammond and May look like Arnie and Stallone.Top Gear they aint !.....who's the Aussie "Stig" ?..... Dame Edna ?

[JoJoTia3rd]

The noisth isth justh great

[GoditsLong]

That soundtrack at the end sounds like its from a lamborghini commerical

[lanceor090209]

Hey, I think the Music is from Matrix Reloaded.

[Silvadragon]

The initial commentary wasn't bad. Then Anthony's wasn't bad. But then the guy driving the red roadster sounded like a bloody wanker! Change ur accent/ voice and ffs get rid of that lisp its annoying the hell out of everyone. Or... just get a new reviewer all together. His voice is like verbal diarrhea.

[jaydee423]

Please stop trying.

[lemon7squeeza]

Tried to watch this but my ears couldn't take it. The producer of the program ought to look for someone who doesn't sound like he's got elastic bands tightly round his best friends twin brothers.

[saveAsinner]

it cost alot....

but jesus's love is cheap

[aleksey1995]

how much would this car be if i got it used?

[ThaHives]

about 70k

[Futuregohan14]

I've seen Vantage's on Ebay with around 10,000 miles(sometimes as low as 8,000) going for $58,000(American Dollars). You can easily find one for under $70,000. DB9's can be found now for well under $80,000.

[aleksey1995]

thanks

[JS96SS]

I know this one is available in the U.S. but, is the DBS V12 also available in the U.S.?

[christosganidis]

yes it is. it costs about 270k $

[EliteSoldier112]

God one beautiful car. I have 2 choices.. Either get this car or the DB9. However, If I were you to get the DB9, I'd only be able to afford it used. Therefore, I plan on getting this V8 Vantage all brand new custom tailored to my tastes xD Might still envy someone with the V12 vantage lol

[cmz23]

this guy sounds gay as hell, lol

[teamcc123456tt]

British Car..

[sugarboy7]

this show is so much better than top gear aus!

[jerometiti]

what is the title at 8 minutes ? please

[m3power96]

i still can't tell which sound is better, granturismo s or the v8 vantage

[IkethePanda]

I like the vantage better

[StuRaz]

This is a great video, a proper honest road test. My grandfather owns an 07 V8 Vantage with the 4.3l engine, it is great to drive but it would be better with a little more grunt. That said it is still good for overtaking and it is very refined and a great car to own.

[sno9r]

Tell him to remove fuse 22 from the engine, and the grunt is all yours!

[StuRaz]

It's in the boot (trunk) on the right hand side behind a piece of carpet, not in the engine. We already have anyway, it stays out usually unless I, or they, take it on a long motorway journey where the constant drone can get a bit tiresome.

I think there is a very slight increase in power, but it could still do with a bit more, even if you want the fuse in.

[sno9r]

Aha, cool ;)

I just think its the worlds best sounding car, so you're pretty lucky to be driving one! :D

[StuRaz]

The noise is astonishing yes, it just never gets old!

And thanks :). Like I say, it isn't my car it belongs to my Grandfather, I'm just a named driver on the insurance policy.

A note on the exhaust valve (basically what fuse 22 controls) - I understand that it can be controlled manually too in both the V12 Vantage and DBS once the sport button is hit, I don't know if it's on the new 4.7l Vantage or not. Ours is an 07 reg 4.3l in Tungsten Silver and wasn't available with the extra features.

[sno9r]

That sounds great, tungsten is such a lovely color!

You should make a video of it soon, really!

Keep on rollin!

[StuRaz]

It is very nice colour. By the way the colour is Tungsten Grey, not silver - my mistake.

And yes I would love to make a video, the only reason I haven't already is because I don't have good recording equipment. If you look at any of my current videos (they're nothing special) that is the best quality I can get and people would want better. No doubt I will if I buy a video camera eventually.

I would be more than happy to send you photographs if you gave me an e-mail address.

[F0ka]

I admit...I absolutely adore this car...I'd rather have the coupe too...looks even more beautiful, the best-looking car these times...I'd take it over the Porsche...even over a Ferrari too...nothing can be compared to the sound of this car.:)

[britishcitizen1]

Amen Jethro...good on ya!!

[NEROROYAL]

Excellent video guys. Damn I want one now. I would take it above the porsche just for the exclusivity alone. Beautiful cars the coupe is the sexier vehicle and I am usually a convertible man!!

[jonathanBch]

UK for the win!!

[Lyncherrr]

amazzzzzing

[SlackBore]

..................I'm speechless!!!!!!!!!!

my favorite part was when the music started playing and they first started up the cars

i love aston martin

[thenumberator]

Made in Germany is good, they are actually capable of precision unlike us most of the time. Nothing beats German quality.

[SPEEDMAN120681]

it is true: the optional 700w sound system is worth every penny. I've tested it for real during a test drive and it's truly amazing. connect your ipod and enjoy the music ;)

[fivepointsix]

please tell me that the engines aren't really made in germany. i might as well buy a fucking carrera s.

[nmzanie]

dude, german engines are the best in the world.

Porsche doesnt have the sexy factor that an aston martin does.

[petbedding01]

no aston martin does have an engine facility in germany, but the engine in the v8 vantage is built in wales.

[eloylb]

Were they sitting on the cars???

[neirdo]

Stop saying DBS when you mean DB9!

[FerCcr]

he drives like my granny

[GerKinZ92]

i was there when they were filming them driving across the damn lol random

[liwei287]

'09 Vantages are only in the 110k to 150k range. I don't think I've seen one that's more expense than 150k right now. The top of the line DBS is based at around 270k. Unless your uncle got a DBS that was optioned out and had an understandable premium, he got ripped off.

[CarAdvice]

Unfortunately in Australia this isn't the case.

[Chachie217]

True!!!

[ferrarifanatic25]

Looks like you saw the video i posted of the ferraris and the ride in my dad vantage.

[Chachie217]

A very nice review there guys. My uncle had just recently bought one, and oh boy do i love being in it?!!! Whats the starting price any way? Cos he paid $350,000 (with tons of extras tho)

[ferrarifanatic25]

Wow!! Thats a lot. My dad just got one with all the options for $170,000.

[Chachie217]

Wow, yeh it's alot, but it was hand crafted in the UK, so must be some importation cost or some stuff.

[DarkMess1ah]

bah! what was the music at 3.40 ish?! otherwise, great review! + I hate you /jealous :P haha keep em coming :D

[AstonDew]

Great video guys, thank you! Love the Vantage. Great use of our fantastic Aussie landscape, good shoots and well edited! Cheers.

[jfysjoel]

what's the colour code for the v8 vantage coupe?

[CarAdvice]

The Coupe is in Onyx Black, and the Roadster is in Fire Red. Hope this helps.

[0611930024838]

Very good!

[NEEDCARS]

omg this car is amazing

[minibus1351]

My favourite car of all time after the DB5
