So just get one of the previous generation 911's then. Like Clarkson has always said, the 911 is just the same car, over and over and over again. At least the Valour looks new (even though it's taking a lot of the style from the old V8 Vantage, the one from 1977. Not a complaint, just an observation 😉)

Great to see! I've had about a dozen cars in my 24 years of driving. They've all been manual with my current one, an F-type V6 2018, being the best package at its price point in terms of performance, theatrics, handling and SOUND!

That shade of blue looks amazing on the Porsche! I love the tail of the aston, but I don't like the front. Too much going on, very un-Aston like actually. The Porsche just looks so timeless and graceful. There's a reason why the have been using that shape for so long. It just works so well.
The umbrella mounted in the trunk is such a funny yet silly idea. how am i gonna get there when it's pouring? You'd think the british woulda thought about that twice. Hilarious gimmick though
I legitimately think that the EV revolution is the biggest driver of the enthusiast's car renaissance. The more EVs break all sorts of number records, the more people want ICE cars not for 0-60 bragging rights but for experience, feeling, and exclusivity.

The Victor is the best looking version, followed by the Valiant. The Valour is nice looking, but some of that burgundy color on the grille should have been represented in the back view. Even the rear mirrors should have been burgundy color as well.

I am in love again, and dream of one day owning this peace of art. Thank you Aston Martin for setting my life on course again and having a new goal. ( One among many others )
I think it's great the luxury cars are making manual gearboxes trendy. Hopefully that trend trickles down to regular people and we get more manual gearbox options for standard, everyday cars.
Wow. So good looking. This is not understated in any way. Third pedal is great. Doesn’t matter if the hedge fund owner can’t drive stick because he probably won’t drive the car.
3:20 - it's definitely giving me O.G. Lister Jag Le Mans 7.0L vibes, i like that.🤙 very few outside of the UK will even know what those were, never mind those "just born" and living here in 'Murica (my friend's Dad bought a V12 XJS in the early to mid 90's).
Even though I would personally choose the 911 S/T, the Valour is such a cool and unique looking car. You wouldn’t even think Aston Martin made it (aside from the old V8 front), it’s just so aggressive and sleek.
Last manual gearbox, last V12 V10 V8 etc etc, brilliant marketing which has been going for many years now. Just wondering when will actually be a very last one, or will it be 😃

I've been watching videos of the cream of British womanhood stumbling around mostly naked and drunk on their fat asses in Manchester and London, watched over by predatory Muslim men. When the empire dies it REALLY dies.
So glad they built that car. I remember when the prototype was shown, and really wished cars like that/this came back..
Buy a lotus Emira, I feel the same thing everyday for half the price.
The seats in that Aston look super comfortable
Wow, that's great news!! Except these cars aren't for the mass, but the top 1% of the top 1%. This video is irrelevant.
I like the part where he says "classic British understatement" while pointing to the back of the car.
Am I the only one that thinks the exterior is ugly
It’s no One77 that’s for sure.
It doesn’t scream “Aston Martin”, yet it’s certainly not ugly, just not what you’d expect for 2 million
I think some rectangular headlights would be better since it's already clearly mimicking vantages of old with that boxy look.
Really? That’s looks really nice
just blue and red combination is ugly. black is so cool
That Aston Martin needs to be straight piped with side exit exhausts. Those Aston Martin's look so much like a British Mustang GT with a TT V12
That 911 S/T is amazing and the one to have if you had to choose between these two.
Long live to the manual, I love it!
these are absolute Top Gear Boxes!
When I saw the victor for the first time, It instantly became my dream car at 13 yrs old. But got very sad when I found it was 1 of 1. I got a bit older my likes changed to the Ferrari 812 super fast and v12 engines. Then I got the news about this car, very similar design v12 and manual. I am in love again, and dream of one day owning this peace of art.
Thank you Aston Martin for setting my life on course again and having a new goal. ( One among many others )
These two guys are great together
I think it's great the luxury cars are making manual gearboxes trendy. Hopefully that trend trickles down to regular people and we get more manual gearbox options for standard, everyday cars.
Funny there's a Porsche comaprison with the Aston, as that rear end is very Porschey.
Finally Aston has made something beautiful. 70’s style ❤🎉Manual. Fun is back 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love this car. I just wish I was rich enough to buy one. Thank you.
Thanks for the manual gearbox 🎉😊😊
Wow. So good looking. This is not understated in any way. Third pedal is great. Doesn’t matter if the hedge fund owner can’t drive stick because he probably won’t drive the car.
3:20 - it's definitely giving me O.G. Lister Jag Le Mans 7.0L vibes, i like that.🤙 very few outside of the UK will even know what those were, never mind those "just born" and living here in 'Murica (my friend's Dad bought a V12 XJS in the early to mid 90's).
Why does the other Porsche have an Aston Martin badge??
Dude the valour 😳 that’s a beaut/iconic 👌🏽
0:50 insane shot
Even though I would personally choose the 911 S/T, the Valour is such a cool and unique looking car. You wouldn’t even think Aston Martin made it (aside from the old V8 front), it’s just so aggressive and sleek.
Last manual gearbox, last V12 V10 V8 etc etc, brilliant marketing which has been going for many years now. Just wondering when will actually be a very last one, or will it be 😃
Two of the best cars offered in 2024.
The Aston Martin it's a pretty car, I am not sure about the red paint nose. Very Cool retro design anyway. 👌💪💨🏁🤑
Petition to bring back manual transmission into BMWs, Benz, and other mid segment performance automobiles.
I,m in love with that Aston.
Between the Victor, the Valour and the new Valiant, I'm honestly loving the direction that Aston Martin has taken with design
We don't need pointlessly wobbly camerawork to give the impression of speed, these amazing machines can do that for us
I've never heard of the Valiant until today. They really could call it the new Vanquish and no one would be mad
That shot from the Porsche spoiler. Wow!
Man the Aston looks stunning. What a shame its so limited
