* Paint 9/10. Beautiful Jet black paint deep and rich in color. Smooth as silk to the touch throughout. Detailed regularly. Only some very minor specking in front of the rear wheel wells which is very common and only visible when up close.
* Headlights, taillights, windows, and mirrors 9.5/10. Clean headlights with 3M film protection, taillights clear with no chips or scrapes. Tinted power windows in great condition with no peeling or discoloration. No chips, scratches, or concerns with any windows or mirrors.
* Front bumper, grille, and splitter 10/10. Front bumper like new with no nicks or scrapes. Upgraded OEM 6-slat bright finish grille (vs. standard 8-slat grille on all other 2006-2008 model years) in perfect condition with no water spots or discoloration. Front splitter updated with 3M carbon fiber wrap.
* Rear bumper and diffuser - 10/10. Rear bumper like new with no dents, nicks, or scrapes. Upgraded carbon fiber rear diffuser looks amazing compared the original and is in perfect condition. Lots of compliments. Still have the original rear diffuser and is negotiable with purchase if interested.
* Side skirts 10/10. Upgraded OEM V12 side skirts provide an updated and more aggressive overall look, were paint matched with install, and are in perfect condition. This is a much sought after upgrade and was close to $3000 installed (have receipts). Still have the original side skirts and are negotiable with purchase if interested.
* Wheels and tires 9/10. Upgraded OEM 19 Sport Pack wheels and Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. These beautiful 5 double spoke forged alloy wheels were first available on the Vantage with the N400 special edition in 2008 and were later made available as part of a dealer-installable Sport Pack for all Vantages. These wheels are silver with diamond-turned faces which makes them iridescent in the sunlight. They are commonly regarded as the most beautiful wheels available for the Vantage. Wheels are all in excellent condition as you can see in the individual pics. Tires have plenty of grip with 7/32nds remaining or approximately 70%. 235/40/19 fronts, 275/35/19 rears. Comes with tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS). Still have the OEM 19 7-spoke classic wheels and tires and are negotiable with purchase if interested.
Interior: 9.5/10
* Seats 9.5/10. Updated 2007+ model year seat design. Power memory, heated seats in beautiful Obsidian black leather with silver contrast stitching. Seats are in excellent condition. Drivers seat has no stretching or sagging, or any scuffs, scrapes, or tears that you will usually find with others. Firm, supportive, and comfortable. Passenger seat looks like new.
* Dash 10/10. Perfect condition. Originally had a small pull in the leather on the front of the dash which is very common, but had that fixed with my initial purchase.
* Door panels 9.5/10. Excellent condition with none of the typical scuffs, scrapes, or nicks in the arm rests from the seat belt hitting them that you will find in many others.
* Headliner 10/10. Alcantera headliner in perfect condition.
* Center Console 9.5/10. Center console in near perfect condition with no cuts or scrapes. Updated with 3M carbon fiber wrap for a more distinctive look. Can be removed with ease if you prefer the original look.

* Carpet and mats 9.5/10. Black carpet and mats in excellent condition. Again, vehicle is detailed regularly.
* Door sills 9.5/10. Door sills in excellent condition. Updated with 3M carbon fiber wrap for a more distinctive look as you will see in the pics. Originally did this as an easy test to see if I liked the look before buying the actual carbon fiber sills, and decided to save the $$$ and still keep 90%+ of the look. Very happy with them, but can easily be removed if you prefer the original look.

2022 Villa d'Este Concours d'Elegance Mega Gallery | The show in pictures
Mon, May 23 2022COMO, Italy Held annually, the Villa d'Este Concours d'Elegance is, in many ways, Europe's version of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. It takes place in a beautiful location, and it brings together an impressive selection of rare and valuable cars. It's a real treat for the eyes, the ears, and, if you're into champagne, the palate. The 2022 edition of the show was no exception: About 50 cars were shipped to Lake Como from over a dozen countries, and it wasn't just the usual suspects. Sure, there were a lot of pre-war cars (including a couple of one-off models), but some of the icons that younger enthusiasts grew up with (like the Lamborghini Countach) were present as well. This year's event was split into eight categories: The Art Deco Era of Motor Car Design, The Supercharged Mercedes-Benz, How Grand Entrances Were Once Made, Eight Decades of Ferrari Represented in Eight Icons, "Win on Sunday, Sell on Monday," BMW's M Cars and Their Ancestors, Pioneers That Chased the Magic 300 KPH, And a design award for concept and prototypes. The jury gave the coveted "best of show" award to a 1937 Bugatti 57 S owned by Andrew Picker of Monaco, while the aforementioned classes were won by, respectively: The Bugatti 57 S, shown below, A 1936 Mercedes-Benz 540K Cabriolet, A 1956 Chrysler Boano Coupe Speciale, A 1966 Ferrari 356 P Berlinetta Speciale Tre Posti, A 1961 Porsche 356 B Carrera Abarth GTL, A 1972 BMW 3.0 CSL, A 1989 Porsche 959 Sport, And the Bugatti Bolide concept unveiled in 2020. Winning at Villa d'Este is a big deal: The cars are judged by a panel of highly experienced judges. No one gave me a scoring sheet, presumably out of fear that I'd award points to the late-model Fiat 600 lurking in the parking lot, but several cars that didn't win an award caught my eye. One is a 1934 Bugatti Type 59 Sports, a grand-prix racer that was once owned by King Leopold III of Belgium and that has never been restored Β its patina is inimitable. Another is a 1961 BMW 700 RS. One of two built (the other is in the BMW collection), it's a tiny, ultra-light roadster related to the 700 and powered by a 697-cubic-centimeter air-cooled flat-twin tuned to develop 70 horsepower. It won several hill-climb events during the 1960s, and it's one of the rarest cars ever to wear a BMW roundel. Aston Martin's freshly-restored 1979 Bulldog concept was cool to see as well; check out the cassette player integrated into the headliner!
2015 Aston Martin V12 Vantage S Roadster
Mon, Oct 20 2014Aston Martin previewed its most powerful, quickest-accelerating and fastest production roadster ever at this year's Pebble Beach Concours. The 2015 V12 Vantage S Roadster is essentially a convertible version of the V12 Vantage S Coupe, which we reviewed last year, a model that drops the automaker's most potent powertrain into its smallest chassis. Unlike the outgoing V12 Vantage Roadster, this new S model boasts a more powerful engine, a new transmission, new adaptive suspension and more luxurious appointments along with freshened styling. While last year's beloved six-speed manual gearbox is gone a thought that continues to bring tears to our eyes Β everything else about the updated roadster piques our interest. We recently spent a full day in the mountains and deserts surrounding Palm Springs with a China Grey (with red carbon fiber accents) version of the British automaker's latest. Driving Notes Mirroring its coupe sibling, the Vantage S Roadster features an all-aluminum monocoque platform with lightweight aluminum body panels. To replace stiffness lost when the roof was removed, a rigid cross member has been added to the open platform. The Roadster's power-operated soft top is fully automatic in operation, opening and closing in about 20 seconds at speeds upwards of 30 miles per hour with the touch of a switch. When tucked away, the entire assembly is hidden cleanly beneath an integrated hard tonneau cover. So as not to be mistaken for its predecessor, Aston Martin has upgraded the model's signature grille from aluminum to carbon fiber with black or titanium silver mesh, with or without body-color accents. The lightweight, forged aluminum, 10-spoke alloys are also new, as is the obvious scripted red "S" on the trunklid. Inside, occupants will find additional grippy Alcantara on the seats and new patterns in the stitching. There are also a slew of upscale options and access to Aston Martin's bespoke Q treatment available. Aston's famed, naturally aspirated, 6.0-liter V12 has been upgraded with a larger throttle body, dual variable valve timing, a revised intake manifold, an improved fuel pump and fully machined combustion chambers. Combined, the improvements are enough to warrant a new AM28 engine designation. On a dyno, the engine cranks out 565 horsepower and 457 pound-feet of torque.
No surprise, Brits still love the Aston Martin Vanquish
Thu, Jul 30 2015We like the Aston Martin Vanquish very much. Sure, there are faster, wilder, crazier vehicles available for the money. Cough, Ferrari, cough. But there's something just so damned charming about the Aston and its big, monstrous V12 engine and stunning looks. And we're not alone in that opinion. You'll hear much the same if you watch the video above, the latest from the team at Xcar. In it, you'll watch host Alex Goy sample the stunning Vanquish Carbon White Edition, rocketing along Britain's stunning B-roads accompanied by a howling engine note. Goy heaps particular praise on the Vanquish's new transmission, the extremely well-received eight-speed automatic from ZF. Aston Martin has a spotty record when it comes to automatic transmissions, but this is the same sublime box being employed by luxury brands across the globe. Considering that, its capabilities in the Vanquish aren't too surprising. You can and should check out the full video from Xcar up at the very top of the page, if only for the V12 soundtrack alone.
