2006 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Preview

It's finally here! Having introduced the long-awaited V8 Vantage at this year's Geneva Motor Show, Aston Martin's latest work will join its elegant siblings, the beautiful DB9 2+2 and the refined Vanquish S supercar in 2006. The design, spawned from the AM V8 Concept shown at the 2003 North American International Auto Show which debuted Aston's new Henrik Fisker-penned styling direction, is positioned as a high-performance sports car with intentions of competing with and overthrowing legendary performance machines such as the Porsche 911, Mercedes-Benz SL, Maserati 4200 GT and the next-generation BMW M3.
