Aston Martin Vantage Coupe, V8, 6-speed. It's not that fast, but it looks and sounds fantastic. I also like its handling balance better than a 911, still remember my awesome test drive.

A friend co owes a jag independent repair shop and that also works on AM’s. He took me for a quick ride in a vantage V12 S. Ummmm definitely NOT slow.
With the flappy paddles it stepped out a little on the first two shifts. Sweet sweet car.

In the past 10 years or so, I've grown to really dig them. I'd buy one without an engine to put in my garage just so I could look at it and sit in it.

Marisa and I drove the boxster up to our yearly retreat to northeast Pennsylvania. God, this car is good here.
But for roads we visit once per year, is it worth it? Hmm. |
