hi Im in the process of buying my first 100k + car and ive always love the look of the aston martins. I sat in a db9 and vantage the other day but didnt get to test drive them. The db9 is nice but seems sorta big. I felt i couldnt see over the dash very good. To me the vantage looks the best inside and outside and just from sitting in it felt easier to control already. But i Dont want to be shown up by every competing car out there at a red light. I want to drive a car thats going take me to lala land and feel like a million bucks driving it with confidence that im driving one of the best and fastest cars on the road. Will a vantage be for me???
IS THE 08' or 09' VANTAGE FOR ME

For you?
Not sure exactly what you are concerned with after reading the second half of your question. The Vantage will attract other fast cars to see what you have, a day does not go by when it doesn't happen. But if you are just worried about being shown up, it can hold its own with most if you care to engage.
My thought on the car feeling big, and not being able to see very well over the dash. The Vantage is basically the same cockpit, so its no difference from the DB9. You really need to feel comfortable in any car you drive.

ya it looks like the same cockpit but i definatly felt like i was in a smaller car when i was in the vantage. Maybe its a mental thing and next time ill pay more attention. I guess I wont really know unless i test drive both of them. Have you driven the new 09 vantage?
I owned an 08 and just bought the 09 Fireblade red car that appears in the latest issue of Motor Trend.
It feels faster and pulls harder than the 08. And the key is crystal, saphirre is reserved for the DBS.
Yeah, way different car. The Vantage can be a daily and the Ferrari is a hard core sports car.
oh ya thats what i was thinking. Okay one last question before you get anoyed.. haha Does the vantage still give you a thrill when driving it compared to a ferrari, or porsche ect...Like what would your explaination be when u first got in that car and drove it?
Wow, good question! Cars thrill me in general, especially the ones you mentioned. I think the AMV8 for me has all the things I look for in a car. Its fast, great interior, great sound system, an exhaust note that makes me smile everytime I hit the pedal, and its a moving work of art.
haha wow ya i know exactly what your talkin about and thats what made me fall in love with the car in the first place. I havnt even drivin one yet so I can only imagine. But its gettin close to the time i can afford to buy one finally. The vantage v12 looks amazing but will definatly be out of my price range unfortunatly. Thanks for your help
To be very frank with you,
I don't think you are really telling the truth. Unless you're talking about models. From you writing I would say you're a 13-14 year old.
Just read some of your earlier posts, there's more then ten grammar mistakes in each one.

So what if he is John? An auto enthusiast has to start somewhere. Don't kill the guys mojo!
first of all im 23 yrs old..i own a very succesful restaurant and proper gramar wasnt what got me there. In fact i feel its a waste of time to backspace when i make mistakes...cuz im to busy enjoying my young succesful life. What are you 60...when did you buy ur first 100+k car....55? Jelousy makes me sick...
no mojo lost by this goof ball..

Good for you. That doesn't mean you can't learn to type in full sentences. It comes across much better. It isn't a "success" thing. It's a maturity thing.
I dont need to grow up to drive a nice car. Like i said id rather live my life then worry about stupid stuff. I know enough to get through life. Im sure ill survive. In fact im also getting married to a playboy model in june and guess what....i didnt win her over by showing her how good I can spell sentences.
Thanks for your oppinion though.

Back to one of your earlier posts, schedule test drives in the Aston, Porsche, and Ferrari all over the same weekend. After driving the three, see which one grabs your soul and puts the biggest smile on your face. Everyone is different and there is no right answer.
