2012 Aston Martin Vantage Range Update

Aston Martin has refreshing news: they are revamping and refreshing the V8 Vantage range for 2012! This certainly seems to be the year for change, with nearly every automaker releasing some type of ‘updated’, ‘refreshed’, or ‘rethought’ form of a previous model. See our Aston Martin V8 Vantage rental here. For some reason I am thinking of the Downy bear breathing in a deep breath…maybe if that bear had an awesome car model he wouldn’t have been such a sissy.

The refreshed Vantage will borrow items from the current Vantage S car, with enhanced dynamics, styling cues and perhaps power. The current Aston Martin Vantage S boasts a top speed of around 180 miles per hour, so something pushing the 200 marker would definitely be awesome.

The current Vantage range offers a 6-speed transmission with an optional 7-speed Sportshift–no word on if this will change with the new version. There will, however, be an altered chassis with faster steering, larger brakes and wider tires. This translates to a lower front-end and oversized intakes–offering a more aggressive appearance to the sports car.
