2008 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Convertible, Perfect Condition, Only 16k Miles on 2040-cars
Scottsdale, Arizona, United States
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. Call Dave for any more information or showings at 602-625-3283 |

Aston Martin-Red Bull Racing V12 hypercar | Autoblog Minute
Sat, Jul 9 2016Aston Martin and Red Bull Racing are teaming up for a hypercar. This week we got our first look at it, as you can see, this is an amazing looking car. It's going to be known as the AM-RB 001.
800-hp Aston Martin Vulcan will live long and prosper... on the track
Tue, Mar 3 2015The Aston Martin Vulcan might by one of the most beautiful creations to ever emerge from the British sports car company. Unfortunately, its status as a track-only toy limited to 24 units makes seeing one on the road practically impossible. That's a shame, too, because nothing would wake up an early morning commute better than seeing jets of flame shoot out of the side of this coupe. For the Vulcan, Aston Martin takes a 7.0-liter version of its tried and true V12 and promises to extract over 800 horsepower from it. The engine is hooked up to a six-speed sequential gearbox, and the car features all of the other necessities for a full-bore track car too. The pushrod suspension, anti-lock carbon-ceramic brakes and traction control are all fully adjustable to create the perfect balance for any circuit. Underneath, there's a carbon fiber monocoque, and the body panels are also made from the lightweight material. While the mechanicals are everything a driver could want on the track, the design is just as attractive. The styling takes the taut lines from Aston Martins of the last decade and sharpens everything to look futuristic. The pointed, orange filaments making up the taillights are an especially cool touch. The brand promises to reinterpret this look for future models, so we might still see inspiration of it on the road. Give it a thorough look in our live gallery above from the floor at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show. Related Video:
Are supercars becoming less special?
Thu, Sep 3 2015There's little doubt that we are currently enjoying the golden age of automotive performance. Dozens of different models on sale today make over 500 horsepower, and seven boast output in excess of 700 hp. Not long ago, that kind of capability was exclusive to supercars – vehicles whose rarity, performance focus, and requisite expense made them aspirational objects of desire to us mortals. But more than that, supercars have historically offered a unique driving experience, one which was bespoke to a particular model and could not be replicated elsewhere. But in recent years, even the low-volume players have been forced to find the efficiencies and economies of scale that formerly hadn't been a concern for them, and in turn the concept of the supercar as a unique entity unto itself is fading fast. The blame doesn't fall on one particular manufacturer nor a specific production technique. Instead, it's a confluence of different factors that are chipping away at the distinction of these vehicles. It's not all bad news – Lamborghini's platform sharing with Audi for the Gallardo and the R8 yielded a raging bull that was more reliable and easier to live with on a day-to-day basis, and as a result it went on to become the best-selling Lambo in the company's history. But it also came at the cost of some of the Italian's exclusivity when eerily familiar sights and sounds suddenly became available wearing an Audi badge. Even low-volume players have been forced to find economies of scale. Much of this comes out of necessity, of course. Aston Martin's recent deal with Mercedes-AMG points toward German hardware going under the hood and into the cabin of the upcoming DB11, and it's safe to assume that this was not a decision made lightly by the Brits, as the brand has built a reputation for the bespoke craftsmanship of its vehicles. There's little doubt that the DB11 will be a fine automobile, but the move does jeopardize some of the characteristic "specialness" that Astons are known for. Yet the world is certainly better off with new Aston Martins spliced with DNA from Mercedes-AMG rather than no new Astons at all, and the costs of developing cutting-edge drivetrains and user interfaces is a burden that's becoming increasingly difficult for smaller manufacturers to bear. Even Ferrari is poised to make some dramatic changes in the way it designs cars.
