I really really love this design, that rear is so unique and gives of a retro vibes for some reason. The painted color shield on the back doesn't look so good though, only the satin carbon fiber version. The design team did an amazing job all around with the front, back, sides and interior. If you can afford this, you're worthy of it.😄
@Kalyptic so true. All the different design cues they integrated into this Vanquish from the rear shield, to the new side strake and the louvers on the hood. As a package they give this Vanquish a distinctive look compared to its smaller siblings....just love it!😍
Interior design is as nice as the exterior. V12 drivetrain as well, its all there. If you have the funds and love a GT this is a must have in my opinion.
@filoniz no, not to my knowledge. You can option it the way you want during the design process....but it's not like you can purchase different versions and interchange them as you please. You never know, it could be a possibility if customers demand it....
I can't say out of experience, since I haven't driven it yet. The pano roof is quite tinted, but I think they should have done better by putting an electrochromic roof. Personally, I'd opt for the carbon fiber roof - I usually don't enjoy pano roofs
@@RichWithCars Thanks for the info! Really appreciate it! If fortune assists me I might order a DB12 next year... Still unsure about the panoramic roof and carbonceramic brakes. Two things I was not able to try and have no experience with on other cars. Will be watching your reviews.. If you happen to try a car with panroof please show how it feels during a clear midday...👍
I Like the Front Wheel Intakes Were Fog Lights & Like the DB12 was a 2+2, Just in Case & I Really Like the Tail Lights. My Big Lottery Win GT. I Can Dream, Can't I? (smile)
While I understand why the grill is so large (V12 needs lots of air) - I wish it was smaller. The rear shield looks like a bolt on piece. I tried to like it but prefer the Vanquish Gen II 2012-2018.
I believe it is bolted on. If you jump to 10:03 you'll see one of the bolts that holds it in place. Not sure if it's attached any other way. Typically I'm not a fan of huge grills, but for some reason, I find it works on this. Kinda like the huge spindle grill that also works well on the LC500 versus all the other Lexus models....
looking at the grill and radiator at 3:01 BRAAA... all i see is rocks plotting to demolish the inside of this car right now ))) longevity aside... this is one good fucking looking car
LMAO! Yup, I couldn't disagree. My exact thoughts when I first saw it. The AMG GT-R had the same issue (when it first came out) and the aftermarket released a mesh grill to protect that area
Can't say much about the new Vanquish's reliability, nor any other Aston, since I've never owned one. I can't comment since I don't have an owner's perspective. Have you ever owned one?
@malleusmaleficarum4572 seems like every GT out there now looks like a Mustang, kinda like what other people said about the M8....🤔 I don't this has any resemblance to a Mustang - but hey, design is subjective and people have their own opinions!
@@moStallion I can see your point. I find the overall look matches quite well. I'm glad they went with that rear design. It really sets it apart from the rest of the model lineup....
@@jerickesquibel-iv1tv definitely would be cool. But I think it's too big for that. They typically use the Vantage for GT racing, like in the IMSA Series
It's a historic brand that's well known for its stunning design. I see your gripe, but I always loved the GT design from Aston Martin. You don't see much change with the 911 - probably because it's something that's worked so well over the decades.
First Euro high ends started to all look like insects, now we're moving on to fish - why? 2008 DBS, 2016 Vantage, old Vanquish - design, styling, brand identity perfected. Moving on from that is tricky, going for sealife inspired front ends not a good idea. One 77 had this problem already, now they're bringing it to "mass" production, that grille is not Aston like at all. Having clueless paid social TH-camrs comment on hood and headlight stylized character lines that 20 year old BMWs have does not help either BUT it is entertaining 😂
Thanks, I do appreciate your commentary. It’s not like BMW has done any better with their styling. I initially thought that the G80/82 models would grow on me, like previous designs, but the beaver look is still what I see. Personally, I prefer a fish over a beaver, but that’s just me

Best GT out right now.
Yes I agree (when it comes out in Q1 of 2025).
The reason I'm doing the lottery tonight. Soo beautiful
🤣🤣🤣 - I'd probably go straight for this if I won the lottery!
Work of art
Aston Martin never fails to disappoint when it comes to design!
Interior design is as nice as the exterior. V12 drivetrain as well, its all there. If you have the funds and love a GT this is a must have in my opinion.
Yes, absolutely. And it might very well be the last V12 GT coming out of Aston Martin
Very accurate and precise coverage Sir, I watched Top Gear coverage about the same car, you went miles beyond them , Well done and hats off 👍
@Solaf-cp1jx wow, I'm sincerely flattered. Thank you very much for your kind words and thanks for watching!
This spec is the best one I seen yet…should have been in all the marketing video as well.
This spec is very polarizing. I really liked the red one they used with the bronze wheels in their press footage
That's neat, so you can change the rear shield as needed 😮
@filoniz no, not to my knowledge. You can option it the way you want during the design process....but it's not like you can purchase different versions and interchange them as you please. You never know, it could be a possibility if customers demand it....
Amazing and this Aston looks almost like a 177 Aston Martin
Yes - it does have very similar front aesthetics
We want to hear it!!!!!
This is pre-production, but you can a bit of it below:

@@richardcarter1000 👌👍👊💪
Wow dream car. I'd drop half a Mil on it ❤
@beckysing9439 dream car for sure! Would you take this over a Ferrari Dodici Cilindri?
@@RichWithCars can I have both? 🤣
@@beckysing9439 if you can afford it, then why not! 😉
Love the color
It's called Magneto Bronze
Any thoughts on the panoramic roof? I'm a little bit sceptic how it performs during hot summer middays. Would love to hear your thoughts👍
I can't say out of experience, since I haven't driven it yet. The pano roof is quite tinted, but I think they should have done better by putting an electrochromic roof. Personally, I'd opt for the carbon fiber roof - I usually don't enjoy pano roofs

Beautiful, Astons new modern car releasells haven't missed.
Gladly they haven't....
Stunning car
In person even more so!

Yeah! I'd probably jump on this immediately if I won the lottery!
@@RichWithCars Touche' (smile)
The original Vanquish was, from a styling standpoint, was my pick of the 21st century cars....of course , I prefer the David Brown cars.
Now you're talking. David Brown era is full-blown classics!
10:38 Geez is it too much trouble to grind the weld bulges down?
@@huss03 Many people like to see them in this context
Good catch....I didn't notice that.
@@robertcook2572 A one-piece forged-then-machined part is what an exotic car like this should have. That just looks rough and backyard shed.
If I am rich, I would love to own one of these cars
Without a doubt! This would definitely be one of the GT's in my collection!
the front 😍, the back😒
@@cristobal2498 yeah - I see a lot of mixed feelings on the design, especially with the rear end of the Vanquish
Price?
No official pricing yet but expected to start in the low $400,000's.

Yeah.
The grill is big, but I find it's cohesive the the entire design....
Love the Grille

Because they have Lucas refrigerators.

Stunning what? I see same front end, and Mustang rear end - this is that of yours stunning design))

the back end is so Kia EV9
Disagree.....
Beautiful car but the rear doesn't match the front
Really? How so?
@@RichWithCars rear looks exotic and front looks elegant.
@@moStallion I can see your point. I find the overall look matches quite well. I'm glad they went with that rear design. It really sets it apart from the rest of the model lineup....
@@RichWithCars it's a beautiful car i agree
Boy that grill is big bit too big
But I find it still works well with the Vanquish.
I hope this car would bring into road racing like endurance race its look very competitive GT car
@@jerickesquibel-iv1tv definitely would be cool. But I think it's too big for that. They typically use the Vantage for GT racing, like in the IMSA Series
It is a crime to put basic led screens instead of analog gauges in such high end vehicle 🤦♂️
I don't disagree. A lot of the hypercars are retaining analog gauges, such as Gordon Murray, Bugatti,, and Zenvo to name a few...
Rear of car ?? I’m not so sure from a purely aesthetic perspective, ?
I find it's different and they managed to give the Vanquish its distinct appearance from the rear...
Shame they weren't more adventurous with the front design...it already looks old ..rear is a break from the past so different
It's a historic brand that's well known for its stunning design. I see your gripe, but I always loved the GT design from Aston Martin. You don't see much change with the 911 - probably because it's something that's worked so well over the decades.
How dare they put fake exhaust tips in such a car
Real exhaust pipes behind those - like AMG's
Owning a vantage I’d say that please stop doing such a horrible strut bar welding guys
A few others mentioned the same thing....could be a third party manufacturer that supplies the bracing....
2025 Vanquish.
2025 Bentley Continental GT Speed.
I'd probably go for the 2025 Vanquish over the Bentley...
@RichWithCars hey listen.
Both
@patmartin4411 lol! Yeah, for sure, if you can, then absolutely yes!

Makes no sense to have the db12 then. I'd rather have the vanquish
I agree - I'd go with the Vanquish 100%. Problem is that it's almost double the price!
Love the color
