Let me comprehend this fully.
The V8 Vantage will be a new model, different to DB9 (and Vanquish)?
Will it be the one aiming at the base Carrera ?

If so I'd definetly choose the AM to the Porsche. Looks far more exotic to my eyes

Yes, not so sure about the base carrera. It will be aimed to compete wil that but more along the lines of Carrera 4S

Thats one of the last protos or one ot the first off the line. It has the ugly black airel from the back of the roof that some of the early build slot holders were sending back as they were not willing to accecpt that on their cars.

Jeremy Clarkson already drove it. But he wasn't alowd to talk about it in his show, but he did. He told every performance, how it rides and the price..
