      @AbandonedRaven 3 месяца назад

      I personally don’t see the appeal with it in certain high tech new cars. I can’t speak on this since I know virtually nothing about Aston Martin (I do love how this looks btw). However, for instance my favorite car is the newer 992 GT3 Touring with the PDK. I’d rather have that option for a new car but if I had an older 964 or 930, I’d rather the manual. I do understand that can be a bit sacrilegious to some saying you want a sports/supercar without a manual.

      You are correct. Designed by Fernando Alonso.
      “Since the Valiant is based on the Valour, it looks pretty similar. Except, the two-time world champ’s creation has carbon fiber vents, strakes, and louvers everywhere. They’re in the grille, in the front air intakes, above the rear diffuser, on the rear glass, and even in the rear wing. It might not be quite as elegant as the Valour, but it’s lighter and sportier, with better aerodynamics.”

Just a few bolt ons and you reach 800hp pretty easy. They have all the new tech. You can get a really nice version of these cars for under 100k. Anyone that pays 1.3 is literally just saying look at how much money i have. I have so much money, I can't waste 1.2 on car. Nice car, I like the front end, hate the rearend. You did make a great marketing commercial for them though, so there's that. All in all, great video, on a over priced average car

    While undoubtedly, it is a fine machine. But for 1.3 million, it still seems to fall short in some areas by a fair margin. When you have to make an effort to justify the steering in the car. And that infotainment system is just totally unforgivable at that price point.

    • @skierpage

      NA V12 would have even less power. At some point a limited edition supercar with less power than an EV for a 1/15th of the price is embarrassing. This is a cool retro car, but it's also a cynical exercise in milking the rich.

    Another great video. So glad manufacturers are still building such raw, manual, mechanical-focused cars, although at an insanely high price. It's an aggressive looking car, although with this paint scheme, from the front, it looks like a Mustang has swallowed an Aston!

    • @skierpage
      @skierpage 3 месяца назад +2

      The '77 - '89 V8 and Vantage likewise looked like Camaro and Mustang Mach 1 muscle cars. (The clichés about "a bruiser in a Savile Row suit" just poured out back then.) That's why this car looks so good to Aston fans ( but maybe not that excessive ducktail).
      I just looked on Classic web site, it lists a whole bunch of 1989 Vantage cars for $200,000 and way up. Earlier ones are a lot cheaper.

    First off, well done Aston Martin 👏🏽 Things I love: V12, manual, retro style. Some missed opportunities: 7K redline is way too low for this special of a machine. They should have used the Cosworth engine from the Victor and not from the V12 Vantage: the end. Lastly, 1780kg/3924lbs is hefty, especially given that at $1.5M-$2M US, it’s as expensive as the Gordon Murray T.33 ($1.8M) at 1090kg/2403lbs, and 5-7X the price of the 911 S/T (1380kgs, 3042/3058lbs EU/US). At this price, it should have a much more special engine, a higher redline, and shave off around 800lbs.
