I love Aston Martin. Everything they make just looks so awesome, just look at the current cars; DB9, DBS, V8 Vantage, V12 Vantage, One-77, Rapide. They all look fantastic, I WANT ONE!
A Grand Tourer is a sports car capable of crossing vast distances in relative comfort let also be sporting enough for track/spirited driving when required. Aston has always strived to be make the best GT cars on the road.
@carsmything302 and the car's I just listed have a v8 and inline 6. Car's like this with V12 engines and especially one's with blowers can really gain a LOT with engine management modifications.
@marshknute You also have to look at the torque figures. Its not only that they produce a lot of torque from the engine but also that they produce it over a very large rev range, thats the key, high torque over a large rev range makes for a car thats very easy to drive. Which is exactly what aston martin want.
@Dungarth i saw all three of them at the dealership couple weeks ago for a school event when they pulled the cover off of the V12 Vantage theres a R8 V10 and XJR in the back
@carsmything302 Most car's are like that. You can usually gain at LEAST 100hp just from engine management alone. My M5 gained about 90hp from it, my M Coupe gained about 85, not to mention they usually increase your redline, allowing the car to go faster. Another thing that would get that car up to that speed is a different gear ratio. That engine is very capable of those speeds, and if unleashed can produce insane power.
I mean Aston martin (like all car manufacturers) down-tune their engines to meet the environmental laws. With a good ECU remapping, I'm sure you can easily get the car above 190 mph.
@1norcal415 If the FQ-400 isn't a good comparison the Audi R8 V10 must be: 525 hp 3.9 seconds and that might be because of the 4wd but it doesn't matter to me, the only thing that matters is how fast it hits 60 mph that's what I'm trying to say and the Aston is just to slow and Audi gets 525 Hp out of a atmospheric 5.2 Liter V10 and Aston "only" 517 out of a atmospheric 6.0 Liter V12.
strange how this new aston martin v12 vantage even when it has its 510 hp engine and its the lightest aston martin car still tops out at its 190 mph. I really like this car but seriously the db9 does 190, the older vanquish does 190, the dbs does 191, the new v8 vantage s does 190 and now this does 190. can someone explain this
I'm glad you agree. I love the car. It's amazing. It's gorgeous, and as soon as I win the lottery, I'll buy one. I just had to laugh when the reviewer in this clip referred to the car as a super car.
I'm sure it's a brilliant car and way better then anything I'll ever drive(on four wheels atleast)..but I really dont like those gills they fitted to it.Imo it'd look better if the vents were covered by metal mesh..
@norasemo I don't get why people say this as if people who're looking to spend that much money on a car should take their money to a different market. wtf. Someone with 135 grand to spent on a car should already own a house.
This is the dogs bollocks of an Aston...blimey! But....take peak at the acceleration thingy at 2:48.. 0-40 in 0.33, but 0-50 in 5.04? I don't thnk so. This car is proper brisk..way faster than suggested by the vid :D
I really don't want to begin a discussion about ,,word definitions'' or anything like that. BUT the cars you named and others like SLR, Murcielago LP670 -4 Superveloce or the Aston Martin One - 77 ARE indeed hypercars. Gallardos, f430's AND ALSO the whole aston martin range (apart from the new vanquish which also is a borderline hypercar - the price tag alone would indicate that) you actually DO call ,,supercar''. So it isn't really the reviewers fault, but rather yours. Do some research first.
Now this is my opinon, get the regular V8 Vantage, upgrade it to the V12's power, get the body parts for the V12 and put it on your V8, it's cheaper, lighter, and faster!
She is simply magnificent !!! vulgar ? I don't think, a little more aggressive but was needed :D The sound of V12 is hummm ^^ that great video thank you
Price alone would indicate that a car is a hypercar or a supercar? By that rationale, I could put a sticker tag of 3 million on a Ford Focus, and call it a hypercar. Thanks for your input, but I'll stick with my assessment. The Aston Martin doesn't, nor was it ever designed to go 250 mph, or handle the Nurburgring in less than 7 minutes. That's what the hypercar would be designed to do. A Grand Tourer is a pricey, great-driving vehicle with some flare. That's exactly what an Aston Martin does.
I love these cars for their beauty, performance and history. But this is beyond amazing. It's an art masterpiece with a nuclear weapon under the hood. God bless Aston Martin. -- YWNA USA
@AdrianC12345 it takes alot of engineers to make a car both faster and handle equally if not better you wouldnt be able to achieve it and people dont just sell them body parts haha
looks beautiful... but id buy the V8 Vantage... the later ones are almost as fast, and im sure are lighter and cheaper! plus that v8 has a godly sound but if i was going for a european performance car, id get the 911... probably cheaper and just as fast with half the cylinders!! don't get me wrong, i like astons, love em in fact... but not the best performance supercar... and i think the amv8 has more style than the amv12
He called this a "super car". It isn't, and never was meant to be, a super car. Ferrari Enzo, Koenigsegg's, Pagani Zondas, etc are super cars. This car would be better called a Grand Tourer (GT). Be that as it may, it's one stunningly gorgeous piece of automotive sculpture. I'd buy one in a second (if I was a billionaire LOL)
it should be able to do 191 mph or 192 mph cause it weighs a little less than the dbs and its a smaller car and the dbs does 191 mph thumbs up for people who agree CAN SOMEONE TELL ME WHY IT WONT GO ABOVE 190
I love Aston Martin. Everything they make just looks so awesome, just look at the current cars; DB9, DBS, V8 Vantage, V12 Vantage, One-77, Rapide. They all look fantastic, I WANT ONE!

@geedunk13 , Audi is a regular brand, R8 is a sport car, V10 indeed, but the V12 in the Aston says: Super Car
@carsmything302 Most car's are like that. You can usually gain at LEAST 100hp just from engine management alone.

@hippieswithpeace I'm not so sure! VW Passat got the same system
@carsmything302 It was a response to someones question.
im so torn im not sure weather to buy a dbs wich i derely love or a v12 vantage
i recon the times might look like that cause the wheels were spinning. just a thought.
damn dude how much is it to get that type of start up option in a car?
those vents are fitted there on purpose or just as a ´decoration´?
@s54bmw wat do u mean by environmental laws and ECU remapping
i want one of these SOOOOO BADLY
Such a fine machine.
my uncle has got a V12 vantage RS and what a car it is :D luv it to bits lol
Aston Martin db9 is my favorite but this one seems cool too
What kinda of an engine starter was that!
does any1 know what is thw music at 0:15 onwards........plz reply
@marshknute astons engineers dont suck they built the aston 177 that makes 750 hp
This car is bad ass man. So awesome
what song is this in the intro!?
mereorite silver would be my colour, plus i would opt for colour coded bonnet vents.
Nice mullet Matt. Is this from the 80s?
I mean Aston martin (like all car manufacturers) down-tune their engines to meet the environmental laws. With a good ECU remapping, I'm sure you can easily get the car above 190 mph.
Hang on... 0-40 in 0:33.. exactly how precise is that 0-30 figure?
@Buttnut105 Just make sure the replacement's got vents in it as well or the engine will explode! Also, they're less noticeable on a black car...
i'd buy both!
@1norcal415 If the FQ-400 isn't a good comparison the Audi R8 V10 must be:
525 hp 3.9 seconds and that might be because of the 4wd but it doesn't matter to me, the only thing that matters is how fast it hits 60 mph that's what I'm trying to say and the Aston is just to slow and Audi gets 525 Hp out of a atmospheric 5.2 Liter V10 and Aston "only" 517 out of a atmospheric 6.0 Liter V12.
Its fast, elegant, and purely simple!
Better then a lambo or ferrari cough cough..
I love this car sooooooooooooooooooooooo much
is it a4 wheel drive car or rear?
would you like to expand on that? at least point out why it isn't instead of throwing words around...
this looks like a good show
i saw one of these on the road the other day.
The Conduit tomorrow!
yeah those vents on the hood look just plain silly on an aston without sponsorship stickers IMO
@rycherisingg
yea. But you can drive the audi more, and more places
strange how this new aston martin v12 vantage even when it has its 510 hp engine and its the lightest aston martin car still tops out at its 190 mph. I really like this car but seriously the db9 does 190, the older vanquish does 190, the dbs does 191, the new v8 vantage s does 190 and now this does 190.
can someone explain this
@s54bmw how do u know this
I'm glad you agree. I love the car. It's amazing. It's gorgeous, and as soon as I win the lottery, I'll buy one. I just had to laugh when the reviewer in this clip referred to the car as a super car.
Astons are a man's sports car. Love 'em
I'm sure it's a brilliant car and way better then anything I'll ever drive(on four wheels atleast)..but I really dont like those gills they fitted to it.Imo it'd look better if the vents were covered by metal mesh..
@s54bmw wat do u mean
@norasemo I don't get why people say this as if people who're looking to spend that much money on a car should take their money to a different market. wtf. Someone with 135 grand to spent on a car should already own a house.
Holy shit, he smashed the bonnet really hard!
@carsmything302 Engine tuning
That it fucking BEAUTIFUL!
OMG! i saw one of those just a few hours ago!!!!!
same thing mate
Best car ever, love it!
i want one
Great car!
Push start like any other new car nowadays, except the whole keyfob goes into the hole and pushes down.
@alive4game haha agreed just have to make a few sacrafices and save up
This is the dogs bollocks of an Aston...blimey!
But....take peak at the acceleration thingy at 2:48..
0-40 in 0.33, but 0-50 in 5.04?
I don't thnk so.
This car is proper brisk..way faster than suggested by the vid :D
@Niel360 k thx =)
thnx for the info...^^
0-60 in 5.9 seconds was really slow for a V12, don´t you think? =s

@CheechMarin4TW
Yeah, you would be right...
Nice!!!!
I win the lottery, I gonna buy this!😎
@1norcal415 You're right I'd safe alot of money and buy a STI or Evo.I love Japanese cars
hahaha man this guys jacket is wicked cool
anyone happen to know the brand?
Now this is my opinon, get the regular V8 Vantage, upgrade it to the V12's power, get the body parts for the V12 and put it on your V8, it's cheaper, lighter, and faster!
Car Of The Century! Personally...
@ShadowBoarder33 Rear Wheel
@arni0202
well i was talking about design not about
the diesel vs. petrol engines.
for you its hideous
for me its the best looking R8
@s54bmw ya da waz ma question
*The DB9 looks sleeker and less bulky looking....
the best of the astons
V10 looks nice but if it was a v12 that would be even nicer, check the R8 V12 TDI
that is the best looking R8 ever made
yup yup
This a Super Car to enjoy it Dudes......
@trlalli92 this without a doubt.
beautiful car but not a huge fan of the vents on the hood
@zXFreeStyleXz THE best looking car ever made.
She is simply magnificent !!! vulgar ? I don't think, a little more aggressive but was needed :D
The sound of V12 is hummm ^^
that great video thank you

@hereHehereHE 2 seats. 2011
We have a DB9 it's still a wkd car.
I love these cars for their beauty, performance and history. But this is beyond amazing. It's an art masterpiece with a nuclear weapon under the hood. God bless Aston Martin.

I dont like astons,but this is so beautiful!
the rear looks ungly...but the front still looks good
@Dungarth i see a XKR like everyday at my friends house LOLLL :P
@AdrianC12345 it takes alot of engineers to make a car both faster and handle equally if not better you wouldnt be able to achieve it and people dont just sell them body parts haha
looks beautiful... but id buy the V8 Vantage...
the later ones are almost as fast, and im sure are lighter and cheaper! plus that v8 has a godly sound
but if i was going for a european performance car, id get the 911... probably cheaper and just as fast with half the cylinders!!
don't get me wrong, i like astons, love em in fact... but not the best performance supercar... and i think the amv8 has more style than the amv12
So this is the LaFerrari driver in the Supercar Driver😂
wat the hell a man should like big engines with BIG power!
GOD!! if only I had the money Dx
@allah211 I'm with you one that one..I think i'm choosing the supercar lol
there is alot of cars that can beat the gallardo even i think in the top gear test track a evo beat it

it should be able to do 191 mph or 192 mph cause it weighs a little less than the dbs and its a smaller car and the dbs does 191 mph
thumbs up for people who agree
CAN SOMEONE TELL ME WHY IT WONT GO ABOVE 190
Porsche GT2 ftw !!!!!
google images dosn't count
This is by far THE best GT car on the market today..in my opinion...
ThEsE aRe wHaT DrEaM CaRs aRe SuPpOsED To Be RigHT???....RiGHT!!
