    As you may know, I'm currently on the Mille Miglia in Italy, one of the most grueling car events of the year. In the mean time I'm publishing some as-yet unseen content from my tour Down Under, I hope you enjoy! To get started, let's check out this fabulous Aston Martin GT12 in Auckland with a little ride to hear the V12.

  • @mrrumncoke2984

    Honestly that spec is drool worthy. I wish his GT8 was a better colour combo like this. Think the GT8 looks odd in the blue and orange

      MRRUMNCOKE I strongly disagree

    • @mrrumncoke2984

      Rey Fakhar I meant the GT12 spec is amazing sorry not the GT8 in this video. Though I also prefer this spec on the GT8

  • @TheRamiKhouryChannel
    @TheRamiKhouryChannel 6 лет назад +9

    I thought the manual option was also available on the GT12.. I think this might reach the $1M+ mark, they are already very valuable and I surely understand why. What a piece of art !

    • @RaffleReefer10
      @RaffleReefer10 6 лет назад

      I wonder if it’d be possible to swap in an aftermarket steering wheel without an air bag, that’d help a lot.
      I remember the Vanquish has slightly fancier air vent surrounds, maybe these ones are plain because its “track focused”

    The GT12 sure is rare. But I'd say the ultimate Vantage is the manual V12 V600 Vantage and Vantage Roadster which only 14 will be available that is coming out.

    I never realised how fast modern supercars are until I drove a McLaren 540C two weeks ago....insane. Until two weeks ago I’ve never had experienced the full throttle acceleration of a 500+ hp supercar. It’s the best thing ever, RIGHT SHMEE😁😁

  • @HamzahAA247
    @HamzahAA247 6 лет назад +10

    Is it just me or does anyone else feel that Aston Martin could have done a better job with the interior (console etc) on the GT12. Outside of the seats and stitching in areas, it seems a bit plain.

    • @ezekielk.3629
      @ezekielk.3629 6 лет назад +4

      it's a track car not a daily GT for pretty interior they have the Vanquish or the DB11

    • @HamzahAA247
      @HamzahAA247 6 лет назад +2

      司徒凱文 .... You're absolutely right 👍 ... didn't think about that Haha. Yeah I guess you'd sacrifice the luxury interior in this case.

    • @chrisgell3275

    Shmee. I may have missed it. But I didn’t hear you make any comments with regards to the sound in comparison to your V8. I understand the V8 and V12 are completely different engines. But would have liked to hear your thoughts more and which sound you preferred.

      Chris Gell An electric motor without gearbox would beat a V12 without a gearbox. Also:

I personally prefer the GT8, although I do not know where the supercar chews are going, in the last year they have released their great models, and in ten days they are modified, spoilers ... inclement colors ..., which is not a criticism, I think it's great ..., keep it that way ... so that we can enjoy those inclement videos, and the lucky ones who can buy them ...
