yes it is

as is the beige one!

what? no! Everything about the other Aston is :)

the white one has the circular steering wheel with alcantara but yu can't spec that on the website. ????

David Bana It is much better like that.

lol no that's gonna be a black one 77

One-77 still the best looking car.

Agreed! I Love This Car! 007 Skyfall And 007 Spectre!

GTA V has a car based after this car, but named differently. The Dewbauchee Massacro is one of the best sports cars in it's class. My character is sitting in one now. Just imagine driving a sports car that looks very similar to this car. Think about that for a moment.

I just sold my Bentley GT...now in the market for a vanquish

@@robertrogers7833 why???

2015 or later is the one to have. Much better gearbox

@@Dtp2296 do you have one?

Porsche, please

+Will James More like drinking a 30 year old single malt vs a fine wine!

Steve Jovan Nope, fine whine.

Will James What is fine whine?

Steve Jovan Good tasting and quality wine

Astons are about being the fastest, the most classy and most beautiful instead :)

***** what you mean?

***** you are against homosexuals? If that's true it's awful and I don't understand the connection with this topic, under this video.

***** I don't think there's an homosexual brand of cars. There isn't any car made for gay people. You sound pretty homophobic.

Guys... im talking about beauty here and you are discussing if you are homosexual or not!? Come on! :D Astons are all about beauty and style, a person that buys an Aston dont care about lap times.

Agree on this one. 565HP is a lot but not enough for its V12 6-liter engine.

I think AMG are going to make them in the future

Aston Martin is not about the speed, its about the elegance. Like they said, this is not a race car and therefore it doesnt need a new engine.

***** Right and wrong. AM is about class, beauty, design, looks and quality of materials. But their cars are definitely for racing or at least you expect them to have powerful engines for what they cost. Just like Ferraris, they aren't track cars either but have better performing engines. What's wrong with taking more HP out of a V12 6-liter? I think 600HP would be the minimum. But yeah at the end of the day they're not meant to be raced.

AND the chassis is a bit out dated as well. I think Aston Martin has to redesign one of their next cars from ground up.

+ahmed sal magnifier

Your nose

PantherP74 Because it is a name, or because vanquish is a verb, not a noun. Or a combination of both.

It's a super cool jacket isn't it? I was wondering the same thing.

glad to know im not alone in my quest for Bruno's jacket lol

james bond It might be barbour.. they fabricate jackets like this one.. cool name by the way ;)

Sebastian Fishbone thanks brother, ill check em out.

james bond It is a quilted jacket. Now what brand he is wearing is hard to tell. This is a Barbour jacket but there are many others out there in all price ranges. www.barbour.com/de/all-collections/mens/quilted-jackets/c/mens-quiltedjackets

The round one is standard and the other is the optional one-77 wheel

MultiTerpen, Performance GT :)

track only car :(

James Hogg Really? :(

Vylkeer Yeah unfortunately... But you can see it at the GT series... ;)

They were pretty close when they were driving too =/

+OneWayofLiving It's a European thing

Yeah I thought that, too! :) It's still a stunning car, even with the lack of torque.

Maybe it's the camera angle or something like that.

buy a new monitor, that should solve it.

whiteandnerdytuba The interior quality of the Aston?

You have to mash the throttle hard to get to that torque hard. But the harder you press the throttle, the more fuel it use since this AM is not light.

Fast Er I think the F-Type Coupé was based on the reinforced Cabriolet, in order to save costs, which may be the reason why it weighs more than a larger Mercedes-AMG GT-S. The Vanquish is much larger than both. Companies like Ferrari, Porsche, Mercedes (AMG GT), Audi (Lamborghini) can afford more dedicated sports platforms and engines. They also do racing extensively. Jaguar had to base their F-Type probably on a shortened XK. And Aston, in 2004 also under Ford ownership, probably also based the DB-9 on the XK, which in turn underpinned the Vanquish. Power and weight specs have moved on since then. Aston Martin is a small independent company, but with the support from Daimler, the DB-11 should get better technology.

You mean Tesla looks like a cheap knock-off with an inferior interior, lower quality materials and less attention detail not to mention its no where near as beautiful as the Aston.

Ultima893 They don't really compete either to be honest.

Ultima893 I'm not sure how a car designed in 2007 looks like a knockoff of a car designed in 2014... Well, maybe the Tesla has an inferior interior but I think it's nicer. I'm not a huge fan of cow peelings. Very heavy. Too hot in the Australian summer. But if you are, then I'm sure that there must be a coach trimmer somewhere who would cover the inside of a Tesla with lots of cow peelings for you for a lot less than the price difference between the two cars. As for lower quality materials, that's just wrong. Aircraft alloy vs Aircraft alloy with carbon farkles. They have their strengths and weaknesses, but one isn't "lower quality" than the other. Carbon is lighter and more rigid, Which is good in one sense, particularly for race cars. But it's more brittle, which is bad for road cars. To go for carbon (saving maybe 50kg at the cost of brittleness) is a strange design choice when you then fill the inside of the car up with 50 kg of leather. The designer seems a bit confused. Is it a race car or a road car? Maybe it's just a "LOOK, I've got more money than sense" car?

Oh, and they say in the video "Ahhrgh, it just needs more torque". No wonder it always feels like it's in the wrong gear, when it only makes 457 lb ft. The Model S is stomping down 864 lb ft and averaging 100 lb ft more than the aston's peak over the whole rev range. I just can't see why anyone would lay down that much dosh on something that's frustrating to drive in the twisty road environment it's meant for. Apparently that's the price you have to pay for the "smoothness" and "linear torque". Of course the torque is far less linear than an electric motor and the smoothness just doesn't compare. The Tesla with one gear and an electric motor is much much much smoother. If you want a Grand Tourer, get a Tesla with nearly double the torque and double the power that comes on instantly for half the price.

Well then there's the prestige of owning an Aston Martin. Pussy magnet, attention etc. the Tesla Model S is the second most sold car of the year 2014 in my country (Norway) only being beaten by VW Golf. Teslas here are more common than a Ford or Toyota.. How many Aston Martins are there in all of Norway? Well between 1-5 are sold per year on average.. you do the math. I would much rather own a unique and prestigious car that only 0.001% of the population has than drive the EXACT same car my neighbours and a huge chunk of the population drives.

Dont get a mclaren 12 , they will break .

Aston are about Luxury and speed. Look at the interior. Very few people would need more speed that this anyway. They would not know how to use it. A Porsche 911 would be faster on a track and probably more reliable but it would not be as luxurious as the Aston.

We weren't saying it's better than today's Astons. We were saying that compared with the times Aston Martin used to be the fastest, even faster than Ferrari. And 120 mph is definitely not enough especially for a car so expensive.

Awesome Person lol well no shit, probably even more than that, but I was just replying to neil cooper when he said 120 or above is enough and it definitely isn't.

***** I don't think there are combinations quite like that lol but I guess I see what you're saying you care more for acceleration than top speed. Personally I care more about what a car can do after 60.

Joe Ziadan Yes it's outclassed by Ferrari F12. But the F12 is so, so good. Ferrari deserve to get the sales - the British car is not as well executed (as a drive). However the Aston still has a more Rolls Royce-ish interior; while even the F12 is somewhat more racecar like.

+Jabran Shakil Overrated what? Ferrari is overrrated? Do you know why?

Jabran Shakil same (aston martin for the win)

Lol,, calls them overrated, what a sour mop xDD

+John Anderson I don't think that was in the plans. Aston for now are going to continue with the old 12 I'm pretty sure. But the V8 will be a M178 as far as I know.

I think astons should have ford/jaguar engines made in Britain even though amg make better engines

John Anderson Well the current Astons use engines that are unique to their cars. The 4.3 and 4.7 V8's are almost unidentical to Jag engines even though they're labeled an AJ V8. The V12 though is just 2 Duratec V6 blocks honed together but pretty much everything else is different. So in reality they should just be considered Aston engines. They're built in Cologne, Germany by Ford BTW who is basically the contractor. The V12 that was in the first gen Vanquish and Vanquish S I believe was built in England before they shut down the Newport Pagnell plant. That engine basically carries over, it's just built in a different plant. I wouldn't say the AMG engines are better because they are both great in they're own ways. It just depends what engine you're in the mood to hearing basically lol. There's really no bad engines currently being made. lol It's a good age for many engines lol.

forced induction amg engines make brutal low end torque compared to anything Aston uses today

John Anderson Yep, and in Merc AMG's case there seems to be no sacrifice in sound quality either. They really do make the best V8 and V12, in terms of sound and power. Can't say they don't. lol
