2008 Aston Martin Vantage V8 convertible low, low reserve


Perfect condition 2008 Aston Martin Vantage V8 convertible. It has the 4.3 liter, 380 horse V8 mated to the automated manual Sportshift transmission. It also has navigation, factory iphone/cellphone integration, and all power options including doors, trunk, windows, mirrors, and seats. This car is an absolute blast to drive whether the top is up or down and Aston definitely hit the nail on the head with the smooth V8 and exhaust note on these cars. Aston Martin is one of the few cars out there today that are still hand-built and the extremely high level of craftsmanship definitely shows in this car. The quality of the leather, stitch-work and overall fit and finish that Aston Martins exhibit is truly remarkable. An Aston Martin Vantage is not simply another luxury sports car like a Mercedes SL, Corvette, Nissan GTR, etc... It is a rolling work of art and a fine example of high performance engineering and quality British craftsmanship. I assisted a good friend of mine in finding and purchasing this car in the fall of 2010. He is the second owner of this car and has had it most of its life at almost 4 years. I am a total car nut and have owned everything from old Military trucks to Ferrari's and Porsche's so he has enlisted my help to list it for him. Also, he lives in Tucson and there isn't an Aston Martin dealership there so he would leave the car with me in Scottsdale whenever he needed regular service. It is truly an amazing car in absolutely pristine condition but rarely gets driven with only 16k miles so he has decided to sell. It has never been driven in rain or bad conditions of any kind and since we live here in Arizona and it was originally from Southern California, it has never come close to seeing snow. The color scheme and wheels is what originally drew us to this car and I think it really sets this Aston apart from the other Vantages on the road. The exterior color is Tungsten Silver Metallic with a black soft-top in perfect condition and a unique two-tone black and saddle brown leather interior that all really do this car justice. The wheels are custom TSW 19" with Bridgestone Potenza 235/40's up front and 274/35's in the rear. Everything works perfectly and as it should on this car and we have had all service work performed at the Aston Martin dealership in North Scottsdale, although these are not pretentious cars at all to maintain and do not require any outlandish servicing like many other ultra-luxury brands. I also have the original Navigation DVD, manual, and 2 sets of keys/remotes. Unfortunately, prices have slumped off on these cars in recent months so we don't expect to get anywhere near Kelly Blue Book's current retail price of $117,102 but it's at least good to know that even Kelly Blue Book recognizes the value of these cars and of course, that number definitely couldn't hurt if you ever wanted to finance this car. This Aston has been meticulously cared for its entire life and has always been store in a climate controlled garage. Ready to sell fast with an extremely low reserve so bid with confidence.

Aston Martin Vanquish Zagato Volante is the belle of the Pebble Beach ball

Sun, Aug 21 2016

While Aston Martin is showing off the Vanquish Zagato Coupe for the first time in North America, it's also using the Monterey Car Week to confirm a convertible version of the stunning supercar. Limited to just 99 cars – many of which will be spoken for this week by those visiting Aston's Carmel, California pop-up shop – the Volante will share the coupe's enhanced V12, cranking out 592 horsepower. The 0-60 time of 3.7 seconds is almost as quick as the 3.5 touted by the new DB11. And, of course, the topless models will distinguish themselves in several ways aesthetically. The Vanquish Zagato Volante gets the same rounded taillight reflectors and "bladed LED technology" of the Vulcan supercar. Lower carbon fiber sills that run the length of the car add a pronounced, sporty emphasis. Zagato's trademark twin cowls blend into the rear deck, concealing the folded top used in the Vanquish Volante. Design director Marek Reichman says the Zagato version is more muscular and flowing that the coupe. The interior gets the Zagato "Z" quilt pattern stitch on the seats and doors, and an embossed "Z" on the headrests and doors add additional flourish. The Vanquish Zagato Volante is the latest result of Aston's partnership with the Italian design house dating back to the 1960 DB4 GT Zagato race car. Aston says this latest Zagato model is aimed especially for the North American market, much like the 2003 DB AR1, an open-topped Zagato-bodied DB7 that was also limited to 99 units and is now considered a collectible. Aston's pop-up shop this week attracted enthusiasts and owners alike, and featured the cream of the DB lineup, the iconic DB5, DB10 from the latest Spectre Bond film, and, of course, Aston's newest series-production GT car, the DB11. Check out the new Vanquish Zagato Volante in the gallery up top, and the brand's pop-up shop below.

AMG-powered Aston Martins still years away

Mon, 16 Sep 2013

After flirting for several years, Mercedes-Benz and Aston Martin have finally tied the knot. Just don't expect to see any offspring to result from the union for at least three or four years.
This according to Auto Express, which spoke with Daimler chief Dr. Dieter Zetsche at the Frankfurt Motor Show last week. AE reports that a new range of AMG-developed turbocharged V8s, transmissions and electrical components will make their way into the successors to the current V8 Vantage and DB9, but that these models are still a few years off.
Purists might balk at the thought of a Mercedes-powered Aston holding true to the brand's heritage. But while David Brown (for whom the DB range is named) may have steered clear of shoehorning in Detroit muscle into his cars, the entirety of the company's current range is powered by engines borrowing technology from Ford, and that arrangement seems to have worked well for Aston until now. And if you're still skeptical, look no further than Pagani and its AMG-sourced engines and you should have all the proof you need that the new relationship between Daimler and Aston could be a success.

The Windsor Castle Concours d'Elegance in pictures, courtesy of Bentley

Sat, 15 Sep 2012

Bentley went to the Windsor Castle Concours of Elegance as the main sponsor and showed off six of its best among the gathering of "60 of the finest motor cars in the world," including the 4¼-liter Bentley 'Embiricos' Special built for a Greek shipping magnate and gentleman racer in the 1930s.
Even better, for us at least, is that when Bentley decided to capture the moment it took pictures of most of the metal on the lawn, not just the Bentleys. Thanks to that, we have a high-res gallery that's home to rarities like the Vauxhall 30-98 Type OE Boattail Wensum Tourer, beauties like the Bugatti Type 57S Atalante, long-tail Ford GT40, Maserati Tipo 60 Birdcage, Aston Martin DB4GT Zagato, a sinister Ferrari 250 GTO and the even more sinister Rolls-Royce Phantom Aerodynamic Coupe, among others. All you need to do now is click and enjoy.
